my opinion is not to buy something new. 
keep an eye out and search the cheap bunkys.
I paid $200 for my Honda accord.
New rebuilt engine, aftermarket king springs and shocks (handles great!)
All that was wrong was a pipe on the carby was not connected properly, and sucking in air (would not idle without some pedal assistance)
That’s just me though.
$50 car will (basically) do the same job (transport a-b) as a 10k car.
But.. you don’t get a lot of the stuff you get when you actually pay for them ;pp
