New Car

Hiya guys and girls. I got a little problem and i'd like some advice. I currently have an '01 protege but my dad paid for it for about half a year and i took up on the payments. Now im gonna move out soon but i can't take the car because my dad needs it.

So here's the deal, i need to buy a car and i dont have much money. Can you guys suggest a good car to buy...used? Or a good way to get money to buy a car like loans or something?

Search around, a lot of new car dealers can do a "1st time buyer" deal. Or get another Protege!

I guess it depends on what your looking to do with the car and how much money u make. I have a 1993 lx protege and i have never had a problem

Look for a gently used 99 ES 1.8 5 speed. That would be my recommendation for an inexpensive newer car.

Here's a 2000, but you get the idea:

Personally I'd rather test-drive any car before buying it.

As with the rest of eBay there is a risk involved. But if the price is right, and the seller has lots of good feedback, I'd go for it. You can always turn around and sell it if you find problems with the car.
