1. Car Financing -- Deal
   When buying a car, don't be misled by cost comparisons between financing and paying cash. Many car dealers now use fancy computer printouts to show that financing a car is a better deal than paying cash for it. Beware. The numbers may look good, but the bottom line isn't. Although there may be good reasons to finance a car or other expensive items, it's not usually because it saves money. Be skeptical, then, if an auto dealer claims that financing costs you less than paying cash. Information telling the whole story may be missing.
2. Audi a4 -- Cars
   Audi A4 was launched in 1995 in place of the Audi 80 model. It carried a B5 chassis until its new design in 2002. One striking feature of this model is the longitudinal engine, which is mostly found in rear wheel drive vehicles. Initially, it was equipped with a 2.8 L 172-hp V6 engine and later, it ... got a 150-hp 1.8 L Turbo inline-4 under its hood. Recent models have bigger V6 engines that yield to greater horsepower. This vehicle is one of the best from Audi and was recognized by Car and Driver magazine as one of the best cars from 1996 through 1998 and in 2002.
3. Kia Rio -- Cars
   [S]ubcompacts have never been better and the new Kia Rio sedan and Rio5 hatchback are perfect examples. In addition to being inexpensive, they are stylish little cars with spacious interiors. They deliver sprightly performance, great fuel economy and agile handling. The Rio models come standard with six airbags, a safety feature normally associated with expensive luxury cars, not subcompacts.
