cousin looking for a new car

he is looking to spend under 5k, his dad wont let him get something with alot of miles (100k+ roughly)

he was looking at a 2000 and a 2002 mazda protege…what do you guys think about them

reliability?
how long do they last?
motor specs?
aftermarket avail?

etc. help him out thanks

shits nice.

if he wants a mod friendly car then he should get a civic. If he wants a nice car to just drive, then go with the protege.

Ill sell my Elantra for $5500.
70k and runs fine.

For a lil more money he could rock my A4

how much more and details? he really wants one

thing about the civics are, if they are allreaddy modded they are hella expensive with high miles

or they are cheap in horrible condition with high miles

or even worse they are nice with low miles but way over priced

hondas are fuckin wierd

Pearl white A4, quattro, 5spd, 2.8, thing is mint i could get you some pictures. The car books for like 7k but ill take less.

mileage?

not what he wants to hear 109

uh oh…he is going to be reading this thread soon, ill let you know

Everytime my cousin asks me for advice when buying cars he does the opposite anyway.
I told him he was paying too much for his current truck but he bought it anyway.

Im serious about the asking price on mine. I want a truck.

Its not a 1.8t so its reliable, ive had it 2 years without one CEL

no offence, you couldnt pay him to drive a hundai haha, me either :ohnoes

first owner?

im 2nd

The same can be said for a '94 Sentra.
Mine is a cheap reliable car. I just want a 4x4 truck now.

:gtfo i was just saying it wasnt what he is looking for

same with my car, its cheap and reliable, im selling it because it sucks in the snow and thats what i need my 2nd car for now

If you think a fwd Sentra is bad in the snow wait until you drive a rwd car in the snow.
