	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 
Teeheehee
