Sagittarius
Sagittarius needs plenty of freedom to explore, and you consider the whole world your oyster. Though you have countless friends, you’re always on the lookout for more, so you need a vehicle that can hold lots of people and handle plenty of mileage as you ramble from one gathering to another. Keeping that in mind, if you’re …
Fully loaded: Go for a GMC Yukon Denali, to reflect your love of wide-open spaces, or a Porsche 911—a classic car whose speed and style speak to your own exuberant, passionate nature.
Comfortable: Go for a four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle that lets you stray as far as possible from the beaten path, such as a Subaru Outback, a Toyota Tundra, or a Jeep Liberty. A Chevy Trailblazer or a Jeep Compass also reflects your love of the open road.
On a budget: The true budget-minded Sag might be perfectly happy just to borrow a friend’s car when you need it! But if you do own your own vehicle, it might be a rattletrap Ford Explorer that rambles as far as you do, a used Plymouth Voyager or Honda Odyssey that reflects your love of travel, or a classic Ford Mustang, which speaks to your irrepressible spirit.
Remember, you’re a broad-minded dreamer who seeks the big picture, which means you aren’t much for practicality or nitpicky details. But details are important when you’re purchasing an automobile. Recruit a practical friend who can help you scour dealerships and the want ads for a reliable ride.
Capricorn
Capricorn is grounded and hardworking. You’re also status-conscious, traditional, self-disciplined, and a bit on the conservative side. And like a fine wine, you improve with age. You’ll work long and hard to support your lifestyle, including the car you drive—and you’re more aware than most that a car speaks volumes about the driver inside. Keeping that in mind, if you’re …
Fully loaded: Travel in style in a Hummer H2, a Lexus sedan or the crème de la crème of automobiles—a Rolls Royce. After all, when you’ve made something of yourself and your bank account reflects the success you’ve achieved, your vehicle should also reflect your elevated status. You might also be attracted to mint-condition classic cars that appeal to your roots-oriented nature.
Comfortable: Go for a Subaru Legacy—this model’s name appeals to your interest in time-honored traditions. A Toyota Avalon radiates class without breaking the bank, while a Camry Hybrid combines reliability, style, and excellent gas mileage, which helps you save money on your gasoline bill.
On a budget: Since you’re sensible, practical, and thrifty, go for a car with the same qualities, such as a Toyota Corolla, a used Saturn—which is not only affordable, it’s also named after your ruling planet!—or a used Ford Aspire.
Remember, you’re often so concerned with savings and efficiency that you might go far too long without treating yourself to a new set of wheels. Even if it means stretching your budget a bit, you deserve an automobile that reflects your personality, values, and status. Don’t be afraid to take a visit to the car dealership and see what’s available in your price range.
Aquarius
Aquarius is progressive, unique, and people-oriented. You’re interested in cars that represent the future, such as hybrid, solar-powered, and electric vehicles. You’re also naturally independent and adventurous, so an off-road ride or a convertible might be just your speed. Keeping that in mind, if you’re …
Fully loaded: Think rare or even one-of-a-kind automobiles, such as a Lamborghini, a Ferrari Daytona Spyder, or a classic Alfa Romeo in mint condition. Hey—if you can afford it, why not drive something that very few other people own? On the other hand, you’re a natural philanthropist, and spending so much money on a car may not make sense to you. In that case, donate what you would have spent to the charity or nonprofit organization of your choice, and read on for other suggestions!
Comfortable: Go for a solar-powered or electric car, or at the very least, a hybrid vehicle. With Saturn as one of your ruling planets, you might really enjoy driving a car of the same name, and the Saturn Vue Green Line Hybrid reflects your love of any and all things progressive and earth-friendly. So does the Toyota Prius. With either of these models, you can feel good about your positive impact on the environment as you reduce your dependency on gasoline.
On a budget: If a car would strain your budget, a bicycle might be your vehicle of choice—or better yet, a unicycle! (Hey, not many people ride those!) On the other hand, a Saturn Ion is affordable, and it’s named after one of your ruling planets. A used Ford Freestyle reflects your urge to do things your way, while a used Volkswagen van will tap into your ingenuity: so what if it’s held together by duct tape and a coat hanger!
Remember, though you prize uniqueness above almost all else, don’t be afraid to settle for something traditional in an automobile. Though it might seem appealing to scour eBay or the want ads for a rare classic car or foreign model, consider how difficult and expensive it can be to keep a one-of-a-kind car running. You’re better off purchasing something tried-and-true, and letting your uniqueness shine in some other area of your life.
Pisces
Pisces is a Water sign, ruled by Neptune, which makes you dreamy, intuitive, and otherworldly. You find it hard to exist in the mundane world, so losing your car keys and forgetting to update your auto inspection or registration might be a regular occurrence. Keeping those qualities in mind, if you’re …
Fully loaded: Go for a Lexus LX or any other top-of-the-line SUV, so you can bring along your loved ones on your travels. Make sure your ride is equipped with GPS, to help you stay headed in the right direction, and Satellite radio, to keep you connected with the stars.
Comfortable: A Honda Accord or a Toyota Camry is a great car for anyone who has a hard time keeping up with maintenance. These automobiles are safe, reliable and require minimal up-keep over the years. Or, check out a Ford Fusion, which comes equipped with a navigation system to help you become one with your destination.
On a budget: An old Volkswagen beetle with a surfboard on top might be just your style. A used Mitsubishi Mirage or a Ford Escape both speak to your sign’s tendency toward illusion, escapism, and fantasy.
Remember, you’re more of a “feeler” than a “thinker,” and sometimes you can be gullible. When you visit the car dealership, take along a trusted friend—preferably someone with a sharp eye and a suspicious nature—to help you resist the salesperson’s practiced spiel so you can get to the bottom line.
