InyaAzz Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 What do ya got?I realize I'm looking for something with high miles...I don't care as long as it was maintained properly. I just need something to drive in the winter, than won't leave me stranded because you neglected to tell me about an issue you were having. Yeah, $2500 isn't a lot to spend, I know...but this is strictly a winter car to get me and the kids around.I'd be willing to spend another $500 if needed, but it's currently tied up in hookers and blow, so it will be a while.

Casper Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Are SUVs out of the question? If not, find a Jimmy or a Blazer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted November 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Not sure I want to revisit that shiity gas mileage. An SUV would work for me..but only if it had 3rd row seating. And I'm not trying to see a suburban either. I had an escalade once...I cried every time I had to fill up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hue jass Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 I recently found a '92 Lexus LS400 ink black and perfect - meaning the body was fixed and shot, interior fixed. Beautiful car and $3000. It was a dealer in Mt. Vernon and I would've bought it but wasn't looking for one. They're out there. Look for an ES or an LS and you can't go wrongI almost bought a '96 Mitsubishi Diamante. Incredible looking car, inside and out but the motors had a rotten top end. Same motor in the 3000GT - very rare to see these cars anymore. Too bad. Lexy and yer set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lexy and yer set.I've seen a few deals in the past few weeks...I just wasn't sure if I was gonna sell the bimmer first at the time. Whatever I get, I've got about 2 weeks or less to pull the trigger. The ice is gonna start up here pretty soon and I don't want any part of that in the current ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jporter12 Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 All these import lovers will hate on this idea.Chrysler 300m, Concord, or Intrepid. You want the 3.2 or 3.5 though, unless you can verify that the engine is clean on the inside for a 2.7. With good tires, they're TANKS in the winter, and they're usually pretty cheap these days, for the 98-04 generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted November 13, 2010 Report Share Posted November 13, 2010 Yeah' date=' if the steering racks or transmissions haven't shit the bed yet. [/quote']Get one with higher mileage, and make sure both fell right, and you're golden! That stuff usually fails around 100k on those cars, and if not, they last. Mine is golden, just about to turn 198k, even with a 2.7! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted November 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2010 $2500? C'mon Inya, get big! I might have problems parking that in the garage. Dunno.I buy older used Honda Accords. I like to get 'em around 100k and sell before 190k - 200k. Stone cold reliable and relatively cheap.The perfect example....http://columbus.craigslist.org/ctd/2056266182.html(not wild about a used car dealer, but this is the idea .. - always buy from a private party.)There's more out there......Civics are WAY too small. They're great cars, but I need more space than what I currently have. The Accord sedans are on my short list. They give me approx 2 inches more leg room in the back, but I lose about the same in shoulder room.Is Inya pimping out kids for ball tickling again?I would like to clarify that the child in that incident was a free agent, and was not employed by me.
