$35,000 is the price of a BMW 3-series. Calling that "affordable" is being generous to the average car buyer.

Source? I wonder how much that's inflated by truck sales. I should re-phrase and say that 35,000 is expensive for a passenger car; The Ford Fusion and Honda Accord both start around $22,000.
