This is what I'm thinking I'll do. We've been to a few dealerships but they never had that big of a selection

Carmax = great selection but overpriced. I say get a CPO Asian vehicle. Worry free for like a decade.

+1 Hyundai..
Regardless of overstated hp/mpg, they're the perfect budget minded brand for women.
Depending on how much she drives, you really can't beat the care free 10yr/100k standard warranty. Easy to find coupons also take the impact out of the oddly frequent 3k oil change schedule by making them available for ~$15 each.
Veloster? lol

My girlfriend bought a mid 2000's bright yellow Focus a few years ago and drove it like crazy, 100 miles a day or so for a couple of years. Then she went to grad school and her sister, who had never driven before, got it and started driving it on an insane 200 mile per day commute. I don't know exactly how many miles are on it now but it still runs great and they have spent very little in maintenance on it. It's a fun cute chick car and they are very cheap. She paid something like $6k a few years ago.

I think im just going to take her to look at Hyundai or Kia, cant really justify anymore work lol. For focuses I wouldnt let anyone buy one but the current gen, the rest are bad.

Mechanically they've been rock solid from the very beginning.

There's nothing wrong with his response and even the OP said this will be his route.

The interiors of Mustangs do make them feel smaller than they actually are. Minimal rearward visibility and low roofline make it feel tight. Maybe a car without these issues will make her feel like she's in a bigger car? The inside of a Nissan Cube would feel like a McMansion compared to a Mustang.

Bad how? The few I've driven have all been fine, including the one I wrote about with huge mileage put on it by an inexperienced female driver...
