Here are my needs:
1)4-door with a reasonably comfortable back seat. Suitable for running clients around to look at property for hours at a time.
2)Must look decently professional (eg: no Bugs, Mini Coopers, pickups, etc.)
3)Reliability
4)Under $20K, the lower the better

What have you guys heard about the following cars?

1) Honda CRV LX (probably the most expensive car I'm considering, but tremendously reliable)
2) Scion xA (I know nothing about this car, but it's supposed to be roomy and easy to get in/out of)
3) Toyota Corolla

In the past I've also considered Saturns, but there are various concerns about reliability that, coupled with much higher insurance costs, have pretty much eliminated them from consideration.

Mazda3 or the Mazda3 5-door. Love it. Lot's of back seat room. You can get the lower end one with power windows/locks for under $20k.
