| should asked a month ago, had an 88 dodge omni. could have sold it for like $250, and it was a great reliable car. didnt look like much (had a couple dents and peeling paint), but it was good on gas, cheap to insure, and extremely reliable, and stick so it was fun to drive once you got used to the clutch grabbing high. it needed new tires and a new winshield wiper when my dad traded it in for $200. it had 141,500 miles on it. would have been a hell of a deal for $250. i loved that car, drove it for 2 years and put 26k on it, and it was still running just as well as when i got it from my parents when i got my civic. if youre looking for a cheap reliable car, get a dodge omni or plymouth horizon, cant beat the reliablilty for the price (you wont pay much more than $1k for even a loaded 1990 omni/horizon) |
