I just got my driver's license at the age of 19 but I need to buy a car. I only use my dad's car now

I'm broke as fuck, 3k is all I can spend

What should I get?

>no i wont go to /o/ because they're mean

May be a meme but go Jap for the reliability

Narrow your options
Read reviews

Honda Civic and shut the fuck up
>>
Some late 80s or early 90's honda. Prelude/Accord are great cos the riceburners get civics and integras and these are usually left alone and are super reliable.

my dad has a little 3.7l Jeep Liberty from like 2005, got it for 3500 i think, im sure you could get a better deal. 80k miles, only problem so far has been a starter

nice little car, has 4 wheel drive

cvpi or 88-91 crown vic/mgm

if you go for the 88-91 they go for absolutely nothing and there's lots you can do to that 5.0 for not much money.
>>
>>27593510
I'll second this, but my merc is a 2004. or corolla/civic if you want to look like a little bitch.

You might be able to get a mk vii for ~3k if you're lucky.

Any panther will be alright. Town cars are ugly as sin and air ride modules failing is a common problem.

buy an old ass 1980's car and overtime turn it into a pimpmobile
>>
I vote something small, like a Miata or Yaris hatchback. You're not going to be carrying around anyone, so why have all the wasted space?

Yes/No ?

yeah you're right, driving seems really fun. do you happen to be a truck driver?
>>
>>27594018
Because other drivers are idiots and will kill you
Maybe when self-driving cars are the norm and I don't have to worry about them "not seeing" me
>>
>>27594047
I've never driven a truck but I think it's not as fun as driving normal cars

Cars also give me something to build and adjust and be autistic about

~300 bucks for the parts he's talking about, might not be that much installed if you go to a reputable local mechanic. check phonebooks/craigslist maybe.

Would offer 1250 because of the mileage
>>
>>27593373
Wow. a 4wd with only 80k for $3500?

how long ago did you buy it?Where did you buy it?

Here in socal, people want 5000+ for totally thrashed wrangler 4x4s with 150,000+ miles.
>>
If you know how to drive a manual, im sure practically any shitbox would see fun to you.

You could try getting a miata but if you're self conscious about being called gay dont go for it

Civic is a good answer but if you cant find a non riced one go for an accord or camry or prelude

Or be a meme and get an MK2 for le snapp oversteerr

>>27594351
he got it about 3 years ago. im in massachusetts

Is a 2007 Yaris Sedan too "feminine" for a guy?

Miata bro
True robot spec and you're gonna be happy in ur cute lil car

I really want Miata because /o/ says it's super fun and good handling and shit but it's considered a faggot car so... Fucking memes ruin everythinf

>>27593253
I'm 23 and I'm literally taking th road test on Monday. I literally need to pass it for my life to get on track and for me to have access to jobs I want.

Get the hatch for that sweet carrying ability and turning circle

No. It says your mom dresses you in dad jeans and polo shirts and you wear autism shoes.

or you're a beaner.

You clearly don't know what 'broke' means
>>
>>27595355
You forgot the "You" famalam
Seriously though, don't buy anything American without extensive research, they are usually pieces of shit.
>>
>>27593297
not a meme at all. but a honda OP. even if it has 180k miles, those fuckers are indestructible. When you talk to the seller, ask them if its chill if you take it to your mechanic for a pre purchase inspection. if they say no, walk the fuck away.
>>
>>27595251
A family member owned the sedan but I'm not sure if I should take it.
>>
>>27594351
that is wranglers specifically, hard to find decent deals
