    WTB: Daily driver

    Looking to pick up something to daily since I sold my toyota last week. No hurry though, don't mind daily driving my '13 in the summer, just seeing whats out there.

    Probably wouldn't want to spend more than ~$5k (could probably spend more the longer I wait to purchase since I'll be able to save some more. Def want to get something before winter though).

    Prefer a fun little car as opposed to a truck.

    Some cars I'm thinking I would be interested in off the top of my head:

    -Contour SVT (my top choice)
    -Focus SVT
    -Acura Integra GSR
    -Honda Prelude (1992-2001)
    -Mazda Miata
    -Impreza 2.5RS or WRX
    -maybe a civic hatch

    That list is not all-inclusive of what I would consider, just some thoughts. Let me know what you got and how much. Most importantly - no junk! I don't want anything that needs major mechanical work and anything rusty. If you don't have a title to it or its not inspected I won't consider it. Thanks.

    yep, I've been in contact with the guy. He's been a little slow to respond though. Emailed me and told me he'd give me a call today after I left him a message but he didn't. Who knows. Does look nice though!

    Nice! Always liked those cars.

    If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
