don't want to spend more than $900... i don't care if it's old, as long as it is in good working condition. preferably an older honda, toyota, acura, or mazda. if you're looking to sell a car that meets the following pathetic requirements in the next 6-8 weeks, holla.

- manual transmission
- decent gas mileage
- will pass inspection
- compact (pref. coupe)
- no major mechanical issues

when your limit is $900, you don't get to be picky about that kind of thing.

I'm selling my auto 4-dr Camry

30+ mpg 500 miles per tank

will pass inspection

but I'm not selling it for $900

I've gotta recommend an e30:
http://raleigh.craigslist.org/cto/1520086389.html

I bought one for $1,000, drove it around 30k miles, and then used it as a $4500 credit towards my Civic via Cash For Clunkers. Spent around $1,000 in repairs/maintenance in the three years I owned it and that includes new tires. They're great cars.

i just feel like a fag driving an automatic. even if it's a piece of shit, i still prefer a manual because automatics are for grandmas and little girls, ahahha.

i'm kind of wary of craigslist, most people are totally unreliable. at least on tdub, people get socially e-flogged for doing stupid shit.

since i have a couple of months before i buy a car, i was really hoping to talk someone out of an older prelude, rx7, mexified civic, or something else kind of fun to drive.

i will pay extra for one of these, though...

Nobody's gonna care, believe me.

There are good people on Craigslist. You just gotta look out for yourself. They might not even know half the problems themselves.

And drop the Rx7 from your list plz....bad bad idea.

[Edited on January 7, 2010 at 7:39 PM. Reason : come on.]

1/7/2010 7:38:04 PM

Will you date me?

Let me clarify my statement:

"That carolla looks to be a good buy, sir."

That statement was a non-sarcastic, non-condescending response to BobbyDigital. So please, if you people could stop with the threatening PM's such as "ZOMG seapunky IS A HOT CHICK YOU N00B. DIE!" I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thank you, God/Allah bless.

1/8/2010 12:28:35 PM

hahaha... i'm not a hot chick, i'm a 54 year old redneck dude with a balding mullet and an extra toe.

thanks for the ideas, i'll keep looking on craigslist and hope something good pops up. i ended up getting the best car i've ever had off of tdub and was hoping i'd have some more good luck.

1/13/2010 1:33:14 AM

My car is the best car you could possibly ever buy. Guaranteed.

And how is that extra toe working out?
