Not $1k, but...
Wanna buy my '05 Civic EX Special Edition coupe?
It's a good starter for stick, 130k miles and I've done lots of work on it recently, hell, half the shit under the hood has been replaced in the last 6 months.
Probably run about $3.5k.

Some geos came with AC, and it would probably be easy to work on because its only 3 cylinders.

Thanks bruh, but I only got what I got.

I guess I'll have to be patient looking for a good condition shit-box. Too many dealers list in the private party on CL. I hate sleazy dealers.
metro/swift has awesome functional slide out cupholders
aspire a shit. metro also a shit but slightly better
>seriously no one wants an aspire, get a '90s era Festiva or a Mazda 323

A 90's era Festive IS an Aspire though.
>tfw sort of want a BPT swapped three door Festiva with venetians and other old people shit for trolling ricers with
The only downside being when I'm not trolling ricers with it I'd be owning/driving a 90's Ford Festiva.
is it bad idea to learn manual jn a 4speed?
What about festiva, shares a ton of parts with the aspire and the same engine IIRC
>>14898751
>USDM
>first vs second generations
>but it's the same car!!!
but it's not, completely different chassis and shit body. Festiva was designed by Mazda (ya I know Ford owns them) and isn't terrible but the Aspire was designed jointly by Kia and Ford.
>source: had to drive an Aspire for years
>looks big and bubbly
>cramped as fuck
>same crash test rating as Festiva
>same engine
>same parts
>terrible body
>literally made ford and kia break up

The reason why I will never buy a Japanese car
>muh 300k reliability!
>2nd engine and transmission at 150k with Honda rust on the fenders
>replaced engine and transmission at 120k
>new engine only has 90k on it
>oil changed every 3000 miles!
>I know what I got, no low balls
US shitboxes are far cheaper for same year and mileage. They all get rusted out with time. I can easily get parts for them from the major chains and junkyards.
If you want an affordable shitbox experience get an Aveo
>dirt cheap for the base hatch
>last of the true shitboxes
>daewoo quality
>A/C is 4 down at 40mph
>power accessories? LOL be glad you get 103hp on the flywheel
>5 speed M/T is held together by rubber bands.
Whatever you do make sure it has a new timing belt with a receipt. Otherwise low ball and pay $125 for a kit. Manual claims a 60,000 interval for the belt. People have broke the belt under 60k.
>>14900136
nobody checks their timing belt. have a friend who wont listen to reason.
>90k km major service interval for getz
>it's almost 100k km
>wont let me check the timing belt

>topped up her oil a few days ago
>mfw i added 2L of oil
>fill capacity is 3.3L
>top end is full of sludge
>no you cant work on it. it's a 10k kekollar car anon! I dont want it to affect my warranty!
>car is 10 years old
how long until epic keks when her car fucking explodes?
>>14896798
If by "luxury", you mean "I don't even know what the fuck that is" then yeah, sure m8
neither, a festiva with a mazda bp-t is the only /o/ption
