I am an 18 year old faggot who needs a car thats gonna last me at least a few years, under $7000.
Cash, not gonna finance or use mommy and daddies money

Any help would be amazing.

Buy this, rebuild engine and tranny, replace the floorboard.
If you pass up this opportunity I will literally kill you.

Also get rear subframe, that's kinda important.

This one seems ok. Good mpg

Also a low mileage option.
I'll post more later, mobile posting for now.
Do you have a brand you prefer?
Also, do you have to buy from a dealer, or can you buy from a private seller?

Definitely this. You save on housing costs too.

How the fuck does a car need a new timing belt, water pump, and head gasket before 100,000 miles?

This one may be a bit out if your budget, but honestly it's a lot of car for the money considering it's a V6. Just do the timing belt yourself it's easy
>>16480082
why did you want dealer only? are you trying to finance a 7k shitbox? how much cash do you have?
>>16480135
>http://maine.craigslist.org/ctd/5949510357.html
not what you want, but it is what you need.
Don't listen to faggots who say you need a v6 with 200k miles on it and a soon to be brown white leather interior. At the end of the day you need a reliable vehicle that gets you from A to B without a headache
A bunch of Mitsubishi eclipses on there

Price wise, you could go for any 2000-2004 v8 mustang or a v6 06-10. Again that depends on condition and mileage. Don't worry most of them are automatic and generally reliable when taken care of.
>>16480082
The only correct suggestion is an Acura RSX. Make sure to get a 2005-2006. They have a 5 speed auto with sportshift which is actually fun to play with when hooning. The older ones have a horse shit 4 speed.

You usually want to change the timing belt about every 100k miles. Might as well do the water pump while you are in there.
I will actually look if you tell me more about your needs and personal prefs. 4-doors? Cargo space? Any drivetrain pref? etc.
