Upgrading?!?

By york62
- Sun Jan 27, 2008 10:01 pm #39583 Ok so some of you may remember that i bought a toyota 4runner. Well it didnt work out well with it. my 88 ef has ghosts in it. so i dont owe anything on any cars so i think i might buy new-er. i'm thinking of spending 10-13k. Just tired of not having a car, or when i have a car its breaking down. The eg project will have to slow down a bit tho, but i have the rest of my life for that!
:lol:
Just wondering what good cars are out there for the amount?

I was first thinking of 2003 civic LS or something along those lines, something fun/not bad on gas.

Suggestions?

If you get a daily, i strongly suggest a sunroof model. Nothing like having a sunroof on a daily w/ AC and PS :)

In the US market maybe, but an early TSX here would still probably run you 18K here, and looking through that seems to be the lowest people are going for an 04

Cheapest i've seen so far was a wrecked 06 for $12,999, and he'd have to leave the maritime Provence and venture into "The Forbidden Zone" or as most call it Quebec :lol:

Now we're barraged with "Price Adjustment!!!!" Marketing. Oh god.

They should have been adjusted months ago, I hate glitzy marketing :roll:
