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.

i would look for a 4th gen 92-96 those are the best since we had a 92 then got a 95si.

the 92-96 preludes were the 4th generation, thats what i was refering to. and we had a 92s then got a 95si and they are quick little bugers
