Hey guys, I want to buy a used car that's reliable and fun. I plan to keep the car for a while so I don't want it to be a total shitbox or a beater. I have at max $14k Canadabux. What cars are good? I've searched for used TLs, IS350s, and G37s, but they're all either high mileage or out of my price range. What cars would you recommend /o/?

>>13880831
>$14k
14 corollas
>>
>>13880842
>Corolla
>not shitbox
Choose one
>>
>>13880855
But there would be 14 of them
>>
OP here. Would an Accord Coupe V6 be worth looking at? Prices seem pretty reasonable here.
>>
>>13882084
SC300
>>
>>13882094
There are no SC300s for sale in Toronto on AutoTrader. They're all SC400 and SC430s, and most of them are more than $14k. The ones that are under are either from the early 90s or have close to 300k km.

e46 330i/ci
e36 m3
gen4 f body
c5 corvette
5th gen prelude
s2k
integra type r
RSX type s (don't know if you have type r's up North)
nc/b miata
sw20 turbo
celica gt4
rx7

lots more that I'm forgetting
>>
>>13882164
I need it to be reliable though. I don't have a lot of money for excessive maintenance/repairs. Also I'm in Canada so the smaller RWD cars or convertibles won't work for me in winter.
>>
>>13882209
So corolla
>>
>>13882229
No I gave examples in my OP. Accord Coupe, IS350, G37, etc. Are there other cars that are relatively fun and reliable at the same time? All of those cars have a heavy rice tax in my area.
>>
>>13882322
Yeah a corolla
>>
>>13882341
>fun
>Corolla
pls. I understand you enjoy your shitbox Corolla but I'd rather get something better with my money.
>>
>>13882140
>early 90s
I'd hope so seeing as its a 90s car you retard
Go on Craigslist
Also
New car is not better
>>
>>13882500
Fuck off wallstreet
>>
>>13882505
Let me clarify because I don't think you understand. I want something from say 2005 or newer that is fun and reliable.

>>13882516
>$14k
>wallstreet
OK, kid.

I thought /o/ would be helpful about cars, but I guess not.
>>
get a e90 330xi or something
>>
>>13882322
I'll give it a shot:

-2003-2009 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT: It's a Subie, fun to drive, reliable, and has AWD...also, it's relatively uncommon car in my neck of the woods.
-2008-2009 Infiniti G35x: Essentially the G37 you're looking at but it has a 3.5L V6. Some people actually prefer this engine because it's a little smoother than the 3.7. x has AWD. Should be cheaper than the G37.

Others:
-Subie WRX (should be able to find an older one for a decent price, but if you're under 25, prepare to get penetrated by insurance)
-VW GTI (see above, but I don't you'll get killed by insurance...very practical car)
-Mazdaspeed3 (this one's a wild card...I've never driven one, but you can always go see how it is)

Hope that helps, OP.

>reliable
>BMW

Pick one, friend.
>>
>>13882568
You're being a dickhead
The SC300 is fantastic
>>
>>13882582
Don't worry. OP will shoot down anything you suggest
>>
>>13882582
Thank you. I'll look into those cars. I was afraid of a WRX/STi because I am under 25 and I heard they're not super reliable.

>>13882619
You're being a retard.
There are no SC300s in my area.
>>
>>13880865
So you broke the rule 14 times
>>
>>13882906
No I improved the rule 14 times.
You'd be set for life.
>>
>>13880831
LS 400 or Ls430
spend the rest of the money on maple syrup and whores
You could get a newer car, but the Ls400 has some serious value in how god damn quiet it is.
I'd get a winter beater too, an old corolla or something like tha .
