Nothing under $2000 is reliable.

Beg to differ... 1st Corolla I had... got it for $900... I beat the piss out of it until the trans died. That motor STILL ran great. IT RUNS BETTER THAN THE ONE I BOUGHT FOR MY BROTHER.

-_-

Looking at this tomorrow.

She bit for $1100. If I like it, I am going to buy it on the spot if it is legit.

Do I need to do anything special when purchasing a car in PA to be used in NJ?

800 bucks for my car. been over a year with under 300 in mods and just over 100 in general repair.

You can find a reliable car for under 2k. Just don't expect it to be fast

So true...i bought a topaz years back for 400, got the car not running. did the fluids/valve cover gasket/tune-up/trans pan/axles/tps... spent about 300 total on parts and then drove it for 2 years commuting to work. old fords=cheap. ended up selling the car for 500 and last i checked it was still on the road

The first 240 I bought cost me $1900.

Aside from regular maintenance: brakes, clutch, Oil Change, etc it never gave me any problems.

To be honest, my BMW has probably given me more headaches than that 240 did.

Kupkake · 08-12-2010, 08:59 AM

Why don't you just get a new/newer used car and make payments? That would be just as much if not less then buying a 1k-2k car every 2-3 months. ya kno....

venhith · 08-12-2010, 09:08 AM

So where is everyone from here in the NJ chat?

got_tint? · 08-12-2010, 09:32 AM

Today I am looking at a 99 Durango with 165k, v8. If she bites for $1200, I'll buy it.

Vinny · 08-12-2010, 10:26 AM

For those that don't know....the 240 is GONE!

Sad to see her go, but got a better new project to work with!
Have a good day everyone!

got_tint? · 08-12-2010, 11:45 AM

Stupid chick called me, said I didn't have enough to interest her and hung up in my ear... I hate people..
