    How long will it take to double the money you have now? These prices all will get you cars that'll run one day and die the other. It isn't worth it. The money you're spending buying used, very old cars with high milage in repairs alone you could of gotten a better car.

    Buying a used car in general no matter where you go and what they say, they just want it off their lot. At all costs. There's always something wrong with it and if there isn't there will be.

    Save up to 5-6k, but then again if it's necessary for use now stay away from high milage cars. 2006 with 110k isn't bad. I believe it should be 10k a year on miles.

    can't wait. this car only needs to last 2 years. 5k-6k would take too long :/

    Find out how many miles. Those Impalas aren't bad cars. Probably the only decent car Chevy was making around that time.

    Don't get the Suzuki. They are normally good cars but that one is a rebadged Daewoo.

    that gen impala just got recalled. They are boats. The motor in there is a good solid motor that GM has used and tweaked for decades but the rest of the car is sh*tty city.

    buying a car isn't really an option, it has to happen.

    audi got sold btw. accord is still in the running though.

    lol Suzuki's are the worst cars ever made. not even kidding. and try to find parts for that....probably only dealer and way overpriced.

    you should check out auctions or find out about a Enterprise Auction. I think Enterprise auctions their cars off when they get 3?~ years old and people get some bargains sometimes.

    I know renting a car is 25 because after 21 the only other legal barrier is 25 to rent a car..

    Try to find something without that many miles and cheap repair parts. Like most said that Audii gonna cost a lot to repair and it's just a matter of time before you will have to repair something. Sound like you're strapped for cash so it would be wise to get something like that

    It's 25 here in Bama. Y'all want him to rent a car for year? He'll be better off buying one.

    Nah anything close to 200k miles isn't good. Are you're parents gonna help you? If so you should go to a used car dealership and get something for a little bit more and do payments if they will help.

    I really don't trust people on craigslist. I knew a dude that got shot over a cell phone. If you go and meet these people make sure your folks go and your mechanic to check the car out.
