well around here imports of my liking are hard to come by. I stumbled upon this looking for one. It's sorta far from here considering I used the next town over and traveling at 60 it will take you nearly 2 hours. but at least it's something.

They can't even show the engine...hmmm. I think almost 4k is to much, but the car does look good.

Yeah the milage is really high, especially for the price. If you could haggle it down below 2k then it could be a good bargain. Anyways if your really that interested in then give it a test drive and have a mechanic take a look at it. Also, dont limit yourself to japanese cars. Theres plenty of good american and european cars out there.

well, I do look for domestic and euro cars. just the euro's around here are either too expensive or in junk condition (ya know, being surounded by hicks isn't good for cars...) and all the domestics are stratus's and caviliers (again, watch out for them hicks) You know the pontiac fiero is looking pretty good right now considering how much luck I have with finding what I want. and I picked up some classifieds yesterday and I'm seeing many 86-87 supra's poping up. I just wonder if there is anything wrong with them. my mom I figured out won't let me get a car until I turn 15, which is in like 2 months. Well anyway I use the zip code to the town over because I get better results. It's closer to the bigger cities like Evansville. well that zip code is 62863 C. I'd scan the classifieds to the computer and show you, but why do that when I could just type it in.

yeah, I'm with you on the Fiero...I've been hooked on them for the past few weeks. there's so much that you can do to them that it's not even funny. don't like the power? there's *several* engines that you can swap in (the stock 2.8 kinda sucks) don't like the way it looks, you caneasily make drastic changes to it with the space frame and plastic body panels. The newer models (The best are 87-88) have great suspension and handels great. not to mention that it's an uncommon car to see on the road, but you can easily find parts for them (GM's famous interchangeability) soon as I can gather enough cash, I'm sure to get one meself...

I keep searching and I can't find anything on auto trader. But, I did see an ae86 yesterday. looked nice on the outside, but it wasn't for sale. I also know a guy I'll be going to high school with that has one, but it's in bad shape and has engine trouble. but, ya I'm really thinkin' about that pontiac. My cap is probably gonna be 4000 since I'll be trying to get a job to scrap in some spare change for it. It'll probably be 3600 if I dont do anything about savin' money. I've got about 600 for any light repairs, inspections and new parts. I'll keep looking but I'm getting alittle tired of autotraders white background.

1984 BMW 318I, runs but needs work, parts car included, $900/ offer. (now this is something I'd buy later in life as a fun car)
1987 BMW, local trade, leather, sunroof, aluminum wheels, as is, 2995.
1994 Eagle Talon ES, 2995.
1989 Mazda RX7 conv., 5 speed, 130k miles, new brakes, new exhaust, new stereo/cd. good fun car,3400.
1990 Mazda RX7 GXL low miles! 3995.
1991 Mazda Miata, white, high miles, recent top, tires and paint, needs TLC, 995.
1988 Nissan 300zx V6 5speed, 106k, red T-tops with gray leather power seats, needs some engine work, too many spare parts to list, 1500.

I know some of those were in the last one, but I put them in to show they are still available. I also have more, but they're in a seperate ad and I'd have to flip through multiple pages to get to them (they are put in at random).
