lol i wish i had 3,000. does not sound like much for a car to most people but you have to look in the paper and that sort of thing. i used to look online but it is the biggest waste of time for me. i have found more cars in the news paper and while driving around than i did in a month of looking online. <8- ) just drive in the crappier areas of your town and look because there are usually old RX7s and stuff.

In the Tampa/St. Pete Area you can find some nice deals under $3000. I use Autotrader.com and ShowAuto.com. Plus as I drive home from work every day I keep my eyes peeled on the used car and buy here pay here style lots.

I got my '87 gts coupe with 118k original miles off an old guy for $800. All original. And this is in the Bay Area too, where good cheap cars are impossible to find.

Keep looking and be patient. The last thing you want to do is get all excited and buy a p.o.s. that you're gonna hate. I've seen it so many times: Rush into buying a car that you're not too satisfied with then hear about a way better car for cheaper!

Just my $0.02, good luck
