<prompt> Human: I just graduated college and I will be starting a job in a few weeks with an 80k salary. I will be living in a very low cost of living city. I figure my take home will be around 4500 a month. Subtract 1300 for savings, 1350 for rentutilitiescableinternet, 900 for food, 300 for entertainment, 100 for miscellaneous and Im left with 550 for a car paymentinsurancegasmaintenance. I also have enough to put a 3000 down payment on the car.This is how I plan to structure my finances and want to know the best car that fits my budget. I want the nicest possible car but not one that will be too flashy since it is my first job out of college. P.S. Yes Im aware that I should buy a 1000 beater and put the rest to savings.EDIT: I put my food costs high as Im someone who enjoys eating out at least 2-3 times a week and going to the bar with friends on the weekend.  <response>: Asking this on here is gonna get the same answer every time a reliable used car that is a few years old. Though with your income, if you really want you can get something a little nicer, also 900month is a lot for food. Me and my gf spend about 600 together and that includes both restaurants and grocery stores
