Donna asks…
AWD Sedans in Southern California?
I currently live in New York City with my wife. We will be moving to the Los Angeles area in the first few months of 2012 (March-April) for my work. However, i'm not sure what to do with our two cars. I currently drive a 2009 Acura TL SH-AWD and my wife currently drives a 2011 Buick LaCrosse AWD. Here in the north east/ tri-state area, AWD sedans come with a premium (about $1,000-$3000 extra) because it is very useful in the winter. I am worried about resale value after moving to Los Angeles because it doesn't snow there. In fact, i'm worried that people WON'T want to buy the cars because the AWD takes more gas when it does come time to sell. (Typically we use our cars for 3-4 years each, but we drive 25k-ish miles each a year so its not practical to lease). I usually end up selling our cars privately to get more money for them. Would you recomend that we sell our cars here in NY where we can get a premium for it. We can both get a rental car until we move (my employer is covering it) or do you think it won't even make a difference in resale value? Do you think i can still get a premium for the AWD, get the same amount as the FWD counterparts, or less money than the FWD counterparts?

You're moving to a completely different lifestyle and a different kind of driving environment.
As you noted, AWD sedans are not as popular in Southern California, but they're kind of rare too, and people do buy them if they like to drive up into the mountains to ski during the winter months. Could be a bonus selling it at this time of year. I'd dump the Buick now, before you roll up too may miles on it, but keep the Acura to drive to California. Who knows... You may even need the AWD to get across the mountains on the way.
Once you get to CA you can replace those AWD sedans with a couple of drop top BMWs.
Charles asks…
Help me choose a first car please!?
My parents think I'm responsible and skilled enough to get a decent first car, but I can't decide. Probably going to go manual instead of automatic {manual is more fun heheh}.
Here is the choices:
BMW 1-Series 128i cabriolet {convertible}
BMW 3-Series 328i sedan
Mercedes C-Class sedan
Acura TL AWD version
Audi A4 sedan
Lexus IS 350 AWD
The car will be the most recent model. Thanks guys!
{don't worry about money, we have that covered}

If i had to, I'd buy the Mercedes because it has some American parts. But it was still designed by Germans. So if you could, buy a Cadillac.
