You sure about that?

Seeing as how those cars are only $500 apart I would say get the saab since you are going to like it more and regret buying a cobalt.

Also good luck on the community college I just finished my first year and about to start my second in August

I am in NJ and was originally gunning for a Saab, but was a day late unfortunately. I still dream of that pretty '99 9-3 turbo convertible, it was pretty.

That being said, though, a lot of these post-02 Saabs have sludge issues. Research the shit out of it.

If you're going to a dealer, make sure you know how long the thing's been on the lot. Learn how to negotiate at dealerships, or in general. Make sure there isn't something else better than you can or will want to buy. Learning manual on your own may be scary, but it might get you a better car considering stuff in your range is going to be mid-00's cars with shit auto transmissions.

>local dealer

Naw nigga, you bout to start community college and you tryna get fucked up with a dealer? Nigga money is already a problem, and you wanna fuck it up more with a dealership scamming your college bucks? You got me fucked up brody, highkey just sit on craigslist and watch that shit. It's a mountain of shit but you gotta sift to find the goodshit. You live in in NJ so there's bound to be some good shit lying around. Since you finna save and try to sell the car anyway just settle for some cheap honda civic beater because those shits are pretty fucking good on mpg without memeing. My homie had one and that nigga was poor as fuck and could still afford to keep it on the road. If you finna be going to the beach and being out and about get a shitty hatchcivic then or even a ranger truck. Nigga you in community college so you aint gotta worry about lookin clean because nigga everyone there will be as poor as you. Trust me nigga.

>cracked needs advertising on 4chan
its like the normiest channel around.

>>17543227
no

not too hard

price range varies what generation you want, but usually somewhere around 15k for an H2, maybe less for an H3. H1's will run you about 50k

of course they do

I just don't understand why I have heard so many people say carburetor cars have no distributors.

>>17543199
I don't know who you are talking to but almost all carb'd cars have a distributor.

Is it your first time seeing a Jeep with no doors or something?

>>17542862
all wranglers have removable doors you fucking retard

People expect their cars to be extensions of their homes/offices now. Electronic everything, connected, always engaged and entertained. There's nothing you can do to stem the tide, technology marches on. If you want to be a Luddite go buy a Lotus Exige or a pre-2000 car that barely even has power anything. No one's forcing you to buy a modern car.

Every car is now required to have a backup camera now. So since they are forced to have a screen they integrate controls to cut costs.

>>17542557
There are youtube video walkthroughs on most car maintenance jobs nowadays.

pirate a haynes manual for your car and read it

>Baby alligators still lurking
Where's the Mama Gator when you needed her?

>>17542493
brakes and clutch are made of material that warp when they are hot and being burnt by a nigga trying to escape alligators

after they cool down, they could be fine

Any particular reason you didnt stop for .36 seconds and slam it into 4L? Aside from this story being entirely fabricated on the spot

>>17542481
yeah sounds shady, don't do it.

>>17542486
Thanks anon, I'll keep that in mind, I really wanted to get some other opinions on this.

>>17542481
Wtf no this is not sketchy. You would not be driving off with my car until i cash that check at YOUR bank. Expect that to be the scenario.

Anything breaks, where are you going to find parts? How much are filters, spark plugs, brake components etc.

>>17542109
do you honestly think that people that are willing to spend $1000 on a repair cares if the end result saves them money?

here's a hint:
no.

here's a scenario:
you always eat at mcdonalds care-free
but one day you find a rat foot in your big mac.
are you still going to eat there the same way that you usually do?
no. everytime you go to that restaurant, you're going to be a little more hesitant about your big mac. you have doubt.

for some people, a little bit of doubt is enough for them to get rid of their car. just like how some people avoid restaurants, stores, etc. because of bad experiences.
