Looking For A New Car

So I have been driving my 2004 Nissan Maxima SE for a while now and throughout this I have determined three key things I will be looking for in my next car: Gas Mileage, Reliability and Turning Radius (the Maxima literally cannot turn). There seems to be so many cars out on the market that have these three things however I would love to know who you think is doing it best.

    Funny you should mention turning radius - one of the things my wife always does on a test drive is make a U-turn to see how well the car handles that task.

    So, smaller is better. So many good choices out there - sedan or hatch? What is your budget? How long do you plan to keep this car? What type of driving do you do - city or highway?
