Thanks for all those replying, I know there are others like me as well, young professional and first time car buyer, so I'm sure this will be beneficial to many I just enjoy researching about the cars that you guys mentioned Right now, I'm using (and practicing) my aunt's vintage 1989 toyota corolla, once I'm ready and I manage to find "the one" then at least, it'll be driven well to make sure it'll last just like the corolla )
