best run-around car for under 10k? - GoFuckYourself.com

Zoe_Zoebaboe · 06-26-2004, 08:23 PM

Ok, so it's definately time to get another car for me. After looking online, and through my Kelly Blue Book, I have a couple cars in mind. I just want a sensible car that I can drive for a while without it breaking down all the time. I would like to use this for travel as well.

1. Chevy Cavalier
2. Hundai Accent
3. Mitsubishi Galant
4. Pontiac Sunfire
5. kia Sophia

These are the cars i've taken a liking to so far. Anyone have any comments about these cars? Are they worth it? If not, please recommend a car you think it a good buy.

Any input is appreciated

The cavalier is pretty reliable.A friend has had one for a few years and hasn't put much into it.

Meta Ridley · 06-26-2004, 08:27 PM

Dont be an idiot, but a used GOOD car rather than a SHITTY new car. I reccommend Honda Accord.

n3in · 06-26-2004, 08:28 PM

A nice used volskwagen would do you for a long time.. they are famous for going a million miles

MrJackMeHoff · 06-26-2004, 08:30 PM

weird indeed

Nismo · 06-26-2004, 08:41 PM

used honda accord EX 4cyl. <- best sedan under $10k that I would recommend + it's a nice car with nicely designed interior.

SureFire · 06-26-2004, 08:45 PM

I would go for a used Honda and my second choice would be a Jeep TJ.

The list you put up, will cost you a lot more in repairs.

emthree · 06-26-2004, 08:47 PM

I cant really say much about these cars, but what I can tell you is make sure you DO NOT get anything made by Mitsubishi. I say this because I've seen many horror stories first hand, and I also heard stories from dudes who work in the shop.

Hope that helps alittle

Mr Pheer · 06-26-2004, 08:48 PM

cant go wrong with a volkswagen

Vitasoy · 06-26-2004, 08:53 PM

I'd go for Pontiac Sunfire

Or are you one of those all talk, no action pussies?
Come on, dude, suicide is painless....

demented · 06-26-2004, 08:57 PM

I'm a Toyota lover, and only drive Toyota, but Honda's are also decent.

Tom_PMs · 06-26-2004, 09:06 PM

For used cars, Toyotas do have the ultimate good rep..

I just got a Civic due to that same logic.

Why fucking pay 10k on a piece of shit chevy or dodge or kia when you could get a good SAFE car that will never need repairs for years to come.

A former salesman from Ford once told me that he would NEVER buy what he was selling. Stick to fucking imports. I believe him. All my friends with american vehicles complain and whine that they are broke. Why? Cause they are always putting money into their pieces of shit. Fucking 3 year old cars that are all falling appart. My Civic is 3 years old, no rust, no mechanical issues and runs just like a 2004. Well worth the $15k CAD we got it for USED instead of money into a car built to only last the term of most leases... IMHO.

what do you drive?

evl4fun · 06-26-2004, 09:44 PM

I like Nissans, I've had two of them (240sx and 300zx) and both took more abuse then is reasonable to expect from any vehicle.
While those are were both small sports cars, the MAximas have an excellent reputation also. Then there is the Nissan pick-ups and Pathfinder which seem to run forever also.
