I'm just hypothetically pondering the question, it's not a situation I'm in myself. - you have 5-7k to spend on a car which you have to drive to a job interview in, where you'll be parking it in front of the window the interviewers look out of.

what do you buy? what car looks classy / subtle and is difficult to criticise, and also helps you look like you earn more than you do, given the low purchase price?

I would not work anywhere where they considered the vehicle attending interview was part of the process
