At that price range, I'm more limited to 1999-2000, but I'm fine with that. Private party blue book for a 2000 with 100k miles on it is about $6500, so that's workable. I found this one on the local listings, but it's about an hour and 15 minute drive from me. If it's still around next week, I'm definitely going to try to take the drive out there to look at it, it looks pretty sweet, and it's got really low miles. I emailed them for more info and pictures, because they didn't provide much. But it's being sold out in an EXTREMELY rural area, so I don't think they'll have a ton of people jumping on it any time soon. The only info they've posted is, "2001 GT 85000 miles very clean magnaflow exhaust also have a set of cobra r wheels and y pipe". I'm not into all the custom stuff, but this one isn't tweaked out too bad. Here are the two pics they've posted. Opinions?

I had a nice long drive down the canyon to get aquainted with her and it was fun. It is a little pimped out for my tastes, I feel like a punk kid driving it, but it definitely was worth $6500. It looks like a much more expensive car. My neighbors all gawked when I drove up, lol.

Re: $3K, which old car should I buy?
Lol well the look is actually growing on me. He actually threw in a set of other rims with tires that wouldn't be as showy as these ones, but I actually really like these bullitt style rims. I think I'm going to leave it just like It is. I'll post some more pics when I get a moment.
