I watch eBay regularly, and yes there are decent cars out there for less than 5 G's.

What is always suggested is:

know how much you intend on spending at purchase, and the figure you'll dump another 10 G's getting it where you want it.

Or:

buy the newest model you can afford (credit: Wally Plumley).

Question is: how much can you afford to spend, both in purchase price and reconditioning costs? They go hand in hand with these cars, so don't be discouraged, just know where you're at.

If you really have the bug to acquire one of these, be realistic. These aren't a Honda Civic that some teenager bought for a grand and then dumped another 10 into just so he could impress his high school buddies with how much noise it makes.......


Good luck, and again, pass on this one.......
