I need a daily driver are these good deals???
Sunday, November 06, 2005 8:32 PM
well i looked at 2 cars so far

first one is a blue z24 just like the one i have now stock of course.. automatic sunroof all that good stuff but it has 160k miles 1500 OBO that is alot of miles im thinking i dont know what do u guys think?

second is a 96 2.2 cavalier with 135k miles 5 speed 1500 OBO..

i would love another Z24 but that seems like ALOT of miles who knows just taking ur guys opinions i was thinking of offering 1200 cash for the Z24 if it ran good ect

if the z is running good, get the z, thats pretty cheap. i got my cav for 2k, with 160000 miles on it, but it was/is in mint mechanical condition.

i say get the 2.2 with 5 speed.. cause if it comes down to it has lower mileage.. and not only that you cxan always get a cheap 2.4 engine to swap in and have a 5spd instead of a boring automatic..

well I bought my 96 z when it had 160k miles on it.. ran strong till the head gasket went out then found out the head was cracked and some other things went wrong.. Its a chance your going to have to take. My daily is a 2.2 and I hate it I cant pull out in traffic without getting run over LOL

I fell sorry for the 2.2 guys espically the autos...

get the z. offer like 900 for it, see what he says. You'll have some money left over if the engine is bad. (or other thing)

if your spending more than 500 bucks on a cav w/ more than 125k on it, your retarded

We just sold a 89 tercel with prob 300K miles on it. Reason I say probably is that the speedometer cable has been broken for some time and we haven't got it fixed. Ran like @!#$, suspension was @!#$, body was mangled with a turn signal missing. sold it for 400!

I don't agree...My 98 has 180K+ on it and its still fine. Replaced the water pump at 130...just replaced the axles...no problems what so ever...its not even burning oil between oil changes. I feel that my car, and any other Z24 with +120k is worth more than 500 bucks as long as it was taken care of

lucky bastard, i wish i could get a z for under a grand. the only Z i found under a grand was 900, and it was a 2nd gen. a 93 to be exact.

yea you can never find a 3rd gen J around here for that cheap unless it has loads of miles (like over 200k), a blown engine, or its wrecked.

so now I know where that cash I gave you went .

Awesome find, and I love the seats you sold me. Corbue is going to send me a replacement bolt for the one.

Any mod plans for this one too? Or just the original?
