I don't even care if it's bad looking desu

In the tampa bay area....budget $3000
http://tampa.craigslist.org/search/cta?max_price=3000

I have no idea what to get, inb4 COROLLA

Location: Seattle
Budget: 3k
Preference:
I'm looking for a reliable coupe sports car but a sedan would be okay too. Manual transmission if possible.
Anti lock breaks are important.
I know I can't be too picky but something good looking would be nice. Little to no body damage / rust etc.

>>14848395
What's the preference? manual/auto, mileage, brand?

>>14848403
I'll look for ya'll, aint got shit else to do.
Give me a few minutes to look.

>>14848403
>Anti lock breaks are important.
>Manual transmission if possible.
I want to manually shift the transmission but I want an auto brake system.
For what purpose?

>>14848278
https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/search/nva/cto

Sport sedan, $6k budget

>>14848467
nm i figured it out.
>when I'm cruisin I want bitches to think I know how to drive
>when It's panic time I want mama ecu to take over because I actually don't know how to dive.
Other reason you would want a manual, because you have no job.

>>14848467
Sorry anon, I'm new to buying cars.
I didn't realize that there was a correlation between the transition type and abs.

It just rains all the time here and I read that for wet conditions, anti lock breaks are a good idea.

Are they not? Sorry and thanks

>>14848403
Alright mate, huge list incoming. All are 3k on the dollar and you've probably seen a few if you've browsed.
Let me know what's crackin.

>http://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/5467747744.html
'98 Civic LX sedan, decent mileage, dirty interior so invest in black ice.
5 speed and bone stock, and the owner has quite a few service records according to the ad. Might be worth looking into.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/5469225873.html
'87 Volks Fox
Interesting little shitbox, but has aftermarket and money/time invested into it. Might not be so hot when something breaks.

seattle.craigslist.org/sno/cto/5491373178.html
01 Focus sedan, 5 speed, motor is new but wheels are tasteless. I don't trust motor swaps myself but it's worth a look.

>93 Miata
http://seattle.craigslist.org/kit/cto/5493214970.html

That pretty much fulfills all your requirements.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/cto/5497413932.html
88 325IX
Interesting enough, probably a money sink.

http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ctd/5499704379.html
beater on a budget? get a subaru station wagon.

>91 mk2 golf
http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/5499324411.html
I'd get this simply because of the nostalgia factor, definitely worth looking into.

>Saturn SC2
http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/cto/5507021274.html
Go-to shitbox that will compete with a honda and corolla in reliability, and this one is a manual -and- 95k miles on it. might be too good to be true tho, look into it.

>Subaru Outback
http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/5509732852.html
Mileage is worrisome but if it was kept up good it's worth it.

>best toyota celica that's not RWD

>>14848475
Looking now, manual/auto?

>>14848516
Damn! Thanks!

>>14848489
for the most part ABS will help you more in icy situations, and even then in a manual you have access to engine braking which will function better than ABS in most circumstances.
also pumping brakes instead of just riding them.

>88 325IX
>Interesting enough, probably a money sink.

This car has been on CL for a long while now, which leads me to a couple conclusions.

It's either actually a POS or the guy lives out in the middle of nowhere and no one wants to make the drive.

I was going to make a 3 hour trek from Portland to go look at it because finding a 325ix with the manual/coupe combo is rather rare in the PNW, but I didn't want to risk driving it back and having it break down.

>>14848475
Kind of hard desu lad, you're probably not looking for the 150k + mileage examples.
But here's a few

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5510882926.html
05 c-class mercedes, money sink for sure but it sounds like it's mechanically solid atm.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5501403852.html
high mileage V6 charger, what could go wrong?

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5512846369.html
Audi with a quattro and 5/spd, low mileage.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5513785881.html
Avalon XLS. Yeah.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5509182642.html
too good to be true probably, but a really good choice.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5537828941.html
I dunno about swedish import shit but it's clean enough.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5524387850.html
300C, kind of low mileage, might be a scam.

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5459073750.html

>NEW BREAKS

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5537994894.html
probably a scam, but this is a low mileage BMW 5 series from 00, like, under 100k.
That's pretty damn good.

Interest?

but my suggestion would be to ignore it, if you're poor you probably can't afford to keep this baby up.

https://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/5501784260.html
intrepids are good cars, I grew up having two of them.
battery is known to fuck over occasionally, happened to my second one.
decent mileage, but female-owned.
check it carefully.

https://cleveland.craigslist.org/cto/5503566113.html
decent kind of tasteful shitbox, red to go faster, 200,000 miles to weigh it down.

any interest anon?

Location: Reno
Budget: 1000
Preference: need a manual car that i can buy use and sell relatively easy in 2 months from now

>>14848616
I'm fine with any mileage, working on a car doesn't bother me. These are good examples, though, thanks.

>>14848663
main thing is most sports sedans with high mileage in that range will also be part of a larger luxury brand and subject to -occasionally- more expensive repairs.
the average joe looking to pay 6k for a car isn't trying to inherit chances of those repairs, you know?

>>14848661
Reno, Nevada?
And as for selling, I dunno mate. I'll try but you're likely going to get some vanilla shitboxes.

Truck that can haul at least 5 tons with offroad capability

>>14848677
Reno nevada could probably afford 1500

>>14848677
That's very true.

I've found a Charger R/T with 170k on the clock that I'm thinking about getting, but idk.

It's here

https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/cto/5492887811.html

>>14848688
The pictures and info isn't really enough, for that one you'd have to actually go check it out.
Don't be afraid to walk away from it, and look into recalls/problems that were common in that model Charger, now that it's been a few years you can probably find a few higher-mileage reviews out there.

>>14848687
Alright, a few incoming.

https://reno.craigslist.org/cto/5492292239.html
suzuki swift, geo metro tier shitbox

probably your best bet aside from the Talon.


Sorry mate, there's not much for sub-1k that's not a mechanic's special.

>>14848774
Cheers lad. Markets thin here. I'll probably go checkout the eagle CAW CAW CAW

>>14848427
Sorry, I should have specified.....prefer auto since this will just be a commuter back and forth to Tampa, no preference on brand but I'd imagine having somewhere around 100k miles is good.

>>14848686
Alright mate, I'll be honest. I don't know shit about trucks - what kind of trucks can haul 5 tons? duallys?

Based on feel here's what I've found, but I kinda doubt half of these will fulfill the 5 ton req.

http://tampa.craigslist.org/psc/cto/5539286929.html
Have to have at least one 'fun' one. Looks like the interior is pretty rough on this one, so you're definitely gonna have to invest in seat covers.

http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/cto/5539649304.html
You knew this was coming.

http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/cto/5535652694.html
This is a really good deal, but the 'trunk dent' comment is troubling. Proceed with caution.


Of course, if you're serious about buying any of these cars get them checked out by a mechanic to make sure there isn't any problems. It'll cost you a $100 (or a case of beer in some cases), but it'll save your ass in the long run.

Naturally ask the owner if it's okay if you get the car checked out before buying it, and if they act all weird about it, bail. There is something wrong with that car. You may also want to try to get the VIN numbers and get them checked out.

http://iowacity.craigslist.org/cto/5538140119.html
06 Nissan Maxima, 154k miles, automagic, mild ding on bumper, cheaper than the volvo.

http://iowacity.craigslist.org/cto/5537075251.html
96 Acura Integra LS
looks kind of riced, cheaper than all of the above, would be a good project car and fun to drive, however almost guaranteed to have at least minor issues. 150k miles on body, 20k on transmission, title says salvage.

http://iowacity.craigslist.org/cto/5532750641.html
06 Cobalt SS
103k miles, supercharged, automagic, title is salvage.

You really don't have much in your area desu senpai. I can bump the price up to 7-8k and see if some more musclier cars show up but it seems to be beaters and econobarges for the most part.
My personal pick? I'd probably go for the Volvo or the Maxima. Salvage tags rub me the wrong way. Volvo will be more reliable, Maxima probably more fun to drive.

but they're cheap economical and lively enough under pressure.

Recommended. Heavily.
That car looks like it's fun waiting to be started up.
Con is that there is a -lot- of aftermarket.
money will be exchanged when things break
things will break
it will suck if you can't upkeep it.
tread carefully anon, fun and possibly poverty await.

Thinking of getting this one on saturday.

Would you? Guy said he's go down to 1200.

>>14849341
that is a lot of miles. Ask him if he used it for a lot of interstate travel, because 230k in highway is bad.
Ask about major replaced parts. Trans, engine, etc.
Inspect for rust, take a look at brake pads and tire tread, also check under hood.
Do test drive. Feel for how it shifts, is the transmission moody, is the clutch tight, loose?
Get back and make sure nothing leaks. Listen when driving for anything that sounds funny when accelerating, braking, or turning.

At the very least it'll need some clear coat, but Civics are known for being reliable.

>>14849341
same old song and dance man, check it out, drive it, take it to a mechanic, decide for yourself.
>new muffler
what does that mean? is it a fartcannon or OEM?
Do you want the system? you want to check electronics now as you don't know how good or bad of a job he did wiring those things in and taking them out.

>>14849360
230k in city miles is bad. fucking english man.

Ill be running my OBD2 on it, and test driving it tomorrow.

I have a mechanics shop at my disposal so repairs arent bad.

He said no leaks, and the 4 extra tires are a tempting inclusion.

Im thinking worst case is a head gasket + piston ring replacement.

Miles aren't really an indicator because things are replaceable. From what i've seen, hondas are super easy to work on too.

>>14849235
unrelated, but reminds me of the whole ACA thing where almost about 1/3 of smaller regional health insurance providers went out of business because poor people don't buy health care unless they need it and now they're charging more through ACA than through regular insurance companies or else people are getting stuck with huge bills

that upsell tho mane

Its an OEM exhaust.

Ill be checking the OBD2 and test driving it tomorrow.

why couldn't I find shit like this.

Riced up tiburon, basic shit, decent DD, fun enough.
looks like a Buy here pay here deal, so if you do get it, don't bother with financing, pay in full cash.
they will fuck you.

https://iowacity.craigslist.org/cto/5511885997.html
High mileage but it's a civic, and from the pictures it looks like it's in a shop which means that you can expect it to be better kept than the average seller.

>>14849575
no problem lad. I enjoy looking at what other places have to offer, it gets me so excited when I see things I wanted for prices I can fuck with.
plus I can see quite a few anons down on their luck and might actually get a vehicle because I -sort of- know the basics of what to watch out for as far as getting fucked, and if it helps them out of a hole, I mean, it's worth a few minutes of digging.

Wow, thank you. I didn't know BMW made such nice wagons.

And that Supra is awesome, too bad I have no idea how to drive manual and I'm 6'2" and I really want a comfortable ride that I can take passengers in.

As a 20 year old male who has been driving for 4 years with no accidents, will insurance on a wagon fuck me? I'm paying like $200/yr on the bike so I really have no idea what typical car insurance is like.

>>14849818
get quotes mato, insurance varies wildly depending on where you live.
for example when I was 20 I got quoted 500 dollars/month for full coverage on a Vette.

>>14848479
We can assume he's going on Craigslist to buy a car because he doesn't have a lot of money.

A car with more saftey features, like abs, will lower insurance rates. Does that make sense?

That 300TD was posted an hour ago? Looks so fuggen sweet, but I have no idea how long it'll last and how expensive it would be to maintain.

I still have a soft spot for the Forester, I was on a canyon run this morning with my bud and I saw one and smiled. But I feel like it's '04 XT or go home, is the L version still decent? I also would be interested in getting a subwoofer if it doesn't have one, but I have no idea where it would go while retaining the fold down space.
