I know we've got at least a few auto-smart folks on this forum, so that's why I'm asking here.
My budget is around $1000 to buy outright, possibly around $2000 if I need to buy from a dealership. I need to get a car that'll be decent on gas. It'll be mostly for commuting to school, my job and back. Probably never more than about 40 miles a day, and that's pushing it. I don't care much about how it looks, as long as I'm not buying a salvage title.
I've been looking at Accords, Civics and Integras, as that's what seems to be the most affordable in my area. But please, feel free to give me your opinions on what to get. In case you wanna be a real swell fella I live in the area of http://sfbay.craigslist.org/cta/ , so if you wanna help me peruse through all of what's available, I'd appreciate it.
