Okay so I just bought sully’s GT Mustang and my dad says theres no way I am making that my daily driver.

My dad gave me pretty much specifics for the car he wanted. Anyone know of any car around/near/in this range?

Must be daily driver (civic, accord, camry, altima) in that order  
Must be 4 door sedan  
Must be automatic  
Must be under 100k miles  
Must be ~3000$  
No work needed to it. Must be clean etc.  
Leather is preferred but not necassary

Anyone know of any such car out there :-d Craigslists isnt helping me much ☹

You’re gonna spend way more $$$ by getting another car/insurance.

craigslist isnt helping much because your asking for a lot for a tiny amount of money. Leather? under 100k? and clean on top of that? sounds like your looking for the impossible

Car runs GREAT but Ill be taking it NYC and back not just Albany and back. So My dad doesnt want to risk anything with it.

He thinks that spending 3-4k on a civic would be more cost efficient then having to repair a mustang in case it breaks down in the future. Meh his choice not mine lol… Ill daily drive the mustang here but the civic will be for NYC and back trips.

Well. I think my dads flexible on the leather part. Thats just my preference. And he wants clean in the sense that no rust or MAJOR dents. Inside he doesnt care that much. None of us know MUCH about cars so it has to be “running” with no problems.

I checked clist in NYC and theres a few more out there within the range but… Its hard to go check out every single one ☹

I go to school up here. My sister/mom live in NEW YORK CITY.

I have to go visit them. I end up going once every three weeks. Sometimes its once every 2 weeks. So It is quite a bit ☹

500 in taxes and fees. And calipers were shot so I got those done for 200. New tire for another 200. And labor for 100. Everything came out to 7500

thats the reason why I will be driving to the city with a civic and not a mustang lol 😃

Plus I live in the safest f’ing place of NYC. I think the crime rate is once every 10 years.
