I know there are a ton of these, but it’s worth a shot. This is for my friend, not me. Her motor in her beretta just blew up. She needs a car, and doesn’t have a lot to spend. Basically, it has to be automatic, and it has to run. Ha. ---

her best bet is gonna be a cavy/sunfire, they depreciate so fast that you can get an early 2000’s one for this much. If she goes for an import it’ll be like a 1990 :lol: ---

Yeah I figured she’s not going to get much. We’re looking at a Cavy and a Sunfire right now Hahaha. The Cavy needs gas tank, muffler, and something else, and the sunfire needs a water pump ---
