Default Getting a used car.

I just recently gave my Car to my mom because she had no vehicle. I wasnt working so i had no money to pay the payment and insurance so it worked out fine. Anyways i had the car for a little over a year and i hated that i still needed 4 years to pay it off. For that reason im going used and cheap. lol.


I want a car that has a decent size trunk, mpg's and thats reliable. Heres what im looking at. Dont know about the trunk size but it looks good.

What do u guys think?

Sorry about that john. Thought this was the appropriate place because of the non perfomance modification.

Bigbear-Looks are like whatever i wanted a crx but cant seem to find one at a dealer. They are all owned by people and i would like some type of warranty. Even if its just a couple months.

DO it, the prelude route anyways. They are 4 cylinder, DOHC. H22a motors. You will be crusing at a nice 200HP and still get good gas. I am driving a 1993 prelude Si right now. This is not my ideal Car though. I bought it for 2,200. It has 145,000 miles on it. Its fun to drive, economical, I am not going to get any ladies in it, nor car I transport more than 2 other people at max. but it was cheaper than the $15,000 vehicles I was looking at and has a solid engine and parts. Bottom line is that I dont have a car payment, insurance is cheap and it gives me more money to play.

FYI, Car Insurance for 1997-2001 Prelude Body styles is outrageous for some reason. I was trying to buy a 1998 but insurance prices kicked that dream. So I bought a 1993 and it is much cheaper on the insurance.
