4 door car help.. I know we are all biased to fast cars but what do you think is the best 4 door car 30k or under is to buy. The make does not matter.....Quality, speed, gas miliage...bang for the buck....Looking to purchase one in about 6 months...Maybe a charger but not very good gas miliage....Any other opinions....

I only like the SRT-8 versions of the Dodges, but those are $40K.

SRT has a different bumper/nose though. Honestly, the Trailblazer will have the most potential and the strongest aftermarket. There are already turbo kits being developed, and the Magnacharger kit just came out for it too. LS2 power!
11-second SUV would be fun. You can pick them up new with cloth interiors for less than $30K if you shop around.

I own a charger R/T and I love it. I avg about 23 mpg highway and city. It has enough power and speed to satisfy my taste and is a really aggressive, sharp looking car. put some limo tint and take off the side moldings and it looks even better. wheels and tires to top it off and it can't be beat in my opinion.

Mazda 3......They have a 240hp 6cyl. and still get pretty decent miliage 24 in the city, and 32 on the highway.
Ok I lied, it's not the Mazda 3, it's the Mazda 6, but it only has 212hp...But still get's 19 mpg in the city and over 25 on the highway.

Really depends on what your needs and tastes are. I have an R/T Charger and the SRT8 Charger.
Gas mileage:
R/T = 15.1 city and 25 Highway
SRT8 = 15.7 city and 22 Highway
You can shop around for an SRT8, but I do not think you will find it cheaper than 34K...... CarMax is starting to stock these sleds now, so you could try their inventories.... They will also ship from out of state... for a fee of course...
Good luck!

....I'm looking into getting a jetta which most car people frown upon
