I'm looking to get a nice little daily driver... something in the $5,000 or less range that can handle a little Chicago snow. I had my dad's old Corolla in high school which was a great car as far as dependability and gas mileage.
It would be nice to get something quasi-sporty this time around... I don't usually have more than one other person in the car with me at a time so it doesn't need to be a four-door. I was thinking of a Celica, 240SX, N/A DSM, or maybe a Prelude? Any suggestions? Thanks. |

Alot of the fwd econoboxes make pretty good daily drivers. My 92 integra when I still had it got pretty decent miles per gallon and was cheap to maintain. The neon we have now is pretty cheap to buy and to own as well. Save your money and pump it into the camaro (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/2thumbs.gif)
