The Second Gen SC2s are pretty awesome too.
Grab an old 9-3 and boost that fucker to the moon.

Saturns are the shit

Can you even buy anything that runs and drives for <$1000?
On the CL around here, it seems like you need at least closer to $2000 for something that will get you from A to B most days and still has paint.
The only way to really find a car that runs is if you know somebody trying to get a Geo off their property for $950.

My CL has corollas running and driving for less than 1000 constantly

Corolla 5 speed nigga
I own a 2000 corolla 5 speed shitbox
$1,000 at 140K miles
I've replaced the windshield wiper reservoir
A strut
and a gas cap
37.2mpg average over a year with traffic
stock clutch is going fine at 196K miles
>>13819879
That's decent. I was looking a bit and most seem to be right around $2000 here. There were a couple less than $1500 but I'm assuming they have some issues.
At least they aren't rusted out because Florida.
>>13819873
I feel like $2000 is the new $1000 for used cars. $3k in California.
>>13819879
I've never seen anything that runs and is a Toyota/honda be posted for less then 2k here.

i got my shitbox corolla for $1,000 in california
family friend though
>>13820267
Got mine for $300 running
>>13819873
You can get stuff in Tennessee for around $500, but that's because everyone here is poor and needs drug money
Toyota supra with na miata 1.6 engine swap
>>13820281
How?
>>13820403
sucking dick on craigslist
>>13820403
It was advertised at $300. So I gave the guy $300.
Also found an AE92 for $190. I would bought it if I didn't already have 4 cars.
>>13820281
Where? In socal all the cheap cars are more expensive because Mexicans drive up the price.

Friend bought an E30 for $900. Served him for at least a year, ended up scrapping it after some big issue came up and I think he did something dumb. He loved it though, with its rough around the edges charm, spray painted racing stripes and all (from the previous owner)
>>13820242
Only applies to scamslist, these days it's a good idea to walk around neighborhoods looking for cars in California and see what you can buy on the cheap. Anyone savvy enough to use craigslist is also stupid enough to list their car for too high a price.
>>13819873
I bought my Geo storm for $800 and aside from exterior wear and tear it runs great
>>13820625
That's a creepy ass face.

Build quality in saturn pre rape by gm higher-ups was better than most of what the usdm had to offer.
It was meant to compete with toyota and honda, they took that seriously.
>>13821657

How are people this stupid.
Escorts were terrible
>>13819873

>>13819837
I love my 99 SC2, the weird one side suicide door is awesome, the car is fun to drive and good on gas, can hold a decent amount of things too. Fuck you
