Hey /o/. Need help. I got 4k, its all i got an likely all I will have for a car for a long time. I need a daily driver to work. Reliability is KEY. What do?
Looking at a 06 chevy cobalt for 4000 dollars (would low ball if possible) with 125k miles and a 2008 honda fit with 193k miles. Suggestions? Might call the fit owner and see if it was highway miles.
>>
The Fit is the best one to choose. Most Hondas out there are built to last a long time.
>>
honda civic
toyota corolla/matrix

>>14613070
idk if you can get a fit in that price range
>>
>>14613051
Any year civic
>>
>>14613070
Even at near 200k miles? Likely to put less than 10k a year on it.
200 seems like a lot for such a short time.
>>
Get a 90-00 civic for like 1k. [spoiler]Spend rest modding it[/spoiler] And save the rest of the money to fix shit despite its longevity if you baby it even in a few years you'd probably still have 1k left over
>>
>>14613080
unriced civics do not exist in my area. Ultra riced, young half retarded teens and retarded rednecks ruin them all. i could drive 200 miles and not find one that hasn't been raced or riced.

>>14613051
>cobalt for 4000 dollars
Buy a minitruck or a Honda or toyota car.
>>
>>14613051
Buy a 240D or 300D. You will never go fast, but you will be extremely hard pressed to find a more unkillable engine.

Parts might be an issue whenever you might need them, though.
>>
>>14613188

Don't listen to this guy. Also avoid Subarus unless 2.2 engine. Hint, most of them are the 2.5's with a 2.5k head gasket repair.

Get a Toyota anything

My neighbor has a 93 with 600k miles on it. Runs pretty good.
>>
>>14613236
I think 93 was before the 2.5L. Early second gens are notorious for going to shit at any point past 100,000 miles with the stock head gaskets. Also apparently a good fix is to get different head studs as well as new gaskets prior to things breaking.

>>14613051
Sorry anon. If you don't have any income you can't have a car.

Nothing with 200k is worth 4 grand. Go for the cobalt.

>implying the OM616 isn't an automotive cockroach
>>
>>14613533
That's not true. A clean car with stacks of maintenance records could be worth 4k
>>
How bad is a yaris? I see one an hour or two away and it has 60k miles on it and its under 4k.
>>
>>14613697
It's a tiny econobox, but it will do what you need it do.
>>
>>14613702
hmm its hella cheap. Is this normal? Last time I priced cars you couldn't get a working engine under 2k, now I see low mileage cars under 8 years old and its cheap.
>>
>>14613051
I mean I have a Cobalt SS turbo and love it, supercharged is pretty slow but has a lot of potential for upgrades. The lsj motor is also really strong if maintained correctly. check out 3rd gear as it is know to fail along with the normal things such as fluids and their coloring, wheel play, tires, seat wear, ect. If taken care of I have seen these cars hit 300k plus
>>
>>14613730
Go and check it out yourself. The market has reset itself after Cash for Clunkers, so used cars are starting to get cheap again.
