Hey guys looking for a used car $12k or less as a DD. The car i want to last for about 4 years. I would not mind a fit but cant find to many cheap used ones yet. Im looking to replace my CR. So just throw some ideas my way thanks

 

hhmmm...

2000 Subaru 2.5RS
2000-2002 Celica GT-S
2000-2005 Celica GT
2000-2002 Honda S2000
2007-2008 Honda Fit Sport
1999-2000 Civic Si
2002-2005 Civic Si
2006+ Toyota Yaris


I know there's more but I'm lazy to think at this moment.

 

Depending on where you live you could probably find a GD3 for that price.

hahaha

 

Could not find any fits in my area at all. I really want a subie 2.5 RS but also none in the area. I still want kind of a sporty car but does not have to be. My plan was these cars
Fit
Honda hatch
Civic SI
subie 2.5rs
old teg
lude
older S2000 but i still want something with more room
RSX or type S
maybe miatia but once again not much room
My mane goal is something with some room and im able to pay it off in 1 year. And it to last about 3-5 years really shooting for 4 years

 

Ill give you my GE for it lol I miss my S2K so much :(

Although I wouldn't get an RSX or civic, they're everywhere. An integra would be nice but that would get stolen so quick here in Florida.

Subbie 2.5 RS is an awesome car if you can find one. I'd pick that. Or maybe a prelude. Or a 240sx maybe?

 

I am looking to buy my first FIT. All you experienced FIT owners...what do you recommend..an automatic or a stick? Thanks

sKRATCH

 

Way to thread jack man thanks!! Depends what u like i like stick so i would say that. But if u live in the city a auto might be better. Now back on with the real topic and no more thread jacks i dont want to neg u

 

I remember u on S2KI. I would but need cash as well on ur end. I have come to not care if i get a car that every one has. I am just looking for something cheap to free up debt. Than in about 3-5 years i will get something like a evo and could afford to buy it in cash. I hate this big car payment i will never let myself get into so much debt again. At least not debt like a car that just goes down in value every year

 

Lol I was just kidding. I still owe a ton on my GE. When I pay it off I might get an S2K, or a miata. If its just temporary then I would just recommend a civic or RSX for a little more $. The civic will be the cheapest to purchase and to maintain. Good re-sell value too, when you decide to sell it and purchase something better.

 

can you do your own wrenching? pick up a mid 80s 5 series / 6 series. you can get a really nice, rust free example for 5-7k. plenty of money left for things that will go, and, IMO, a ton more style than what you're eyeing. the etas get upper 20s hwy, possibly 30 on a good example.

 

prelude ftw.

 

get a lexus is300. i had a prelude and an is300 before...is300 is SMOOTH.

 

the op mentioned something that had a little bit of room in it. i wouldn't suggest a prelude then because it's nearly impossible for anybody to sit comfortably once you squash some passengers in the back. but if you aren't gonna be taking more than one passenger then it wouldn't be a problem.

 

also might look into mazdaspeeds. i still see a few 04(?) sedans roaming around and they are pretty quick and fun to drive. :)

if you can find a clean lude, that would be my choice too. i had a
Gen5 long time ago i bought new. was a fantastic car. :p

 

want my 03 jetta? $6,700 and I'll drive it down.

 

$7,000 and I'll put springs on and break them in on the drive down.

 

03, 04 350z maybe...or how about a 93/94 poopra tt?
