incredulous Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 try websites like kelley blue book, or edmunds, or cars.comi found my car on the internet. i went to the palce, but you can find the best price, plus you will know alot about the car before you get it( check the kelley blue book for value, pics, and alot of info) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeg Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 yeah, you can get cars on ebay... also on xcars.com... theres some others, but i can't think of them off hand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teklord310 Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 Buying a car on ebay could cause serious problems. Beware, you have on idea what you are getting. Unless you pay $100 for it, i'd watch out. You don't want to get screwed. True sometimes you can get a good deal, but IMO you never buy a car without a complete pre-purchase inspection. Good luck!

JimmyZ Posted January 17 Report Share Posted January 17 I don't know about 6 months to a year, but if you want a cheap piece of sh*t to hold you for atleast a few weeks to a few months try going to an auto auction, my friend gets cars from there all the time at like $75-$150 per car. Good luck.Im_Your_DJ@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teklord310 Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Check the classifieds section, you can find something to get you around for $1k or so. It is still a risk. My beater does a great job, got it for free. No problems. okokok. bad pic.,I put the headlights and grill back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
