Thumbs down What To Look For In A Test Drive?

Hey guys,

Really interested in buying a G coupe in the near future and I've been driving a 2000 Chevy Blazer my whole life. I'm not too familiar what I should be looking for when I'm testing driving the G coupe since this is my first non-SUV car. I know I'm a n00ber and everything, but I'm just here to learn what to look for in a test drive so that I may make a better decision. Can anyone help me out? Thanks guys =)

The main thing you're trying to look for during a test drive is to see whether you actually like the car. Do you like the interior, do you like the seating position, do you like the acceleration, do you like the braking, do you like the handling/turning?

Try test driving a couple of different cars, like Infiniti, Lexus, BMW, Audi, Subaru, etc..... Then pick the one you like the best that you feel is a good value for the money.

Were you born yesterday?
Coming from a blazer, the G will be like heaven and so will almost any other new vehicle. The free loaner blazer that I drove was the worst vehicle I ever drove.

nope, wasn't born yesterday but the blazer was my first car. The G will be the first car that I'll purchase with my own money which means I've never shopped for cars before. That's why I'm such a n00ber. Thanks for the replies guys. And I bet the G will be like heaven compared to the blazer.
