Vehicle Recommendations for Specific Buyers
- Janet: I recommend a red convertible for Janet. She is a single, mature, ambitious businesswoman with no dependents. She would surely love such a car.
- Edward: Edward needs a car that makes him feel young again and helps him overcome his mid-life crisis. Since he is wealthy, I would recommend a super sport car.
- John: John should certainly buy a hatchback. Given his young age and the fact that this is his first car, I believe it is the most suitable choice for him now.
