Re: Next Car

Well, my mom used to have a 97 Eclipse RS. I think it could be a good reliable car and get good gas mileage out of it so as long as its been taken care of. However, don't expect to get any power out of it.

Re: Next Car

I would probably only get a DSM if it was the GSX or GS-T. Let us know how you like it.

Re: Next Car

well, remember... I have only had a little while to come up with cash... lots ahs been going on... and this deal is below blue book... so it's looking nice and attainable right now...

I went and looked at a '91 Mustang GT awhile back... but that car was $4k... lots of aftermarket... but the carfax results looked kinda funny...

Re: Next Car

hot damn... the new headgasket looks to be leaking... the car is nice... looks very well-maintained... but the car struggled when I cut on the AC (very cold, BTW)... it might just needthe idle raised, but the check engine light was on the whole time, and then started flashing... and white smoke/water came outta the tailpipe

Re: Next Car

Hah, the car came back yesterday... door handle replaced... and it drove perfectly... The aforementioned problem was water....

When the engine was detailed, there was standing water in the engine compartment... specifically on the spark plug plenum... all the car needed was a tuneup and some sun (to dry off)

If you use a real escro service they do.

And I always thought no one would ever fall for those great "deals" on ebay, esp not twice.
