Default Whats kind of car should I get?

I sold my cavy. So I need a new DD. I am considering a 01 acr neon for 3200. But I dont know if I want another neon. And I dont car much for the 2nd gen. Buts its the h/o acr. I want to spend between 1500 and 4500. So throw me some good ideas for a good reliable DD.

an 01 acr won't last as a DD. ull mod it.

it depends whats available in your area. if you want something the most reliable shoot for something simple with low milage and a low number of owners. something unmodded and slow - so you arent tempted to beat on it cuz its slow no matter what.

Hate to say it. But I just took a liking into the mid 90's accords. I found a 95 4 dr 5 speed with 116k mi They want 3k for it. I figure I know nothing about hondas. So then I wont mess with it and break it.

hondas are a good bet. cheap, easy to fix, parts are everywhere, and good on gas. otherwise my gf is gettin rid of her 92 maxima. da body is clean, runs like a champ, has like 130,000 on it. shes askin $2k. she got tired of havin a big 4 door. she wants to downsize.

Any input on integras at all? I dont know hondas at all. I never liked them. But they have small engines so it will be good for gas. I was thinking about offering a kid in town 1500 for it. It has high miles and its beat up. So then I can go take it off jumps. Hondas fly.
