i have ruined two DSM’s in the last month and a half…i need to find something reliable, for a good price, and not terrible looking and I need to find something soon. can anyone help me? someone you know selling a car…or anyone works at a dealer?? i’m looking to spend around 8 or 9k.

Andrea, I know this may not be what you’re looking forl, but we have our 2000 Neon for sale. 73k on it. It is reliable, and gets great gas mileage. And it’ll be cheap and you could use the cash you saved to put a downpayment on a loan for Sam’s GSX. 🙂

You can buy both my Talon’s for 7k…than you can have reliablility with the ESI and performance with the TSI. Best of both worlds.
