A used Honda Accord or Honda Civic is a good bet. They are super reliable, get good gas mileage, and aren't too flashy. Also, repairs on these cars are usually on the cheaper side

Why can't I find any high mileage exotic cars?

Try a Toyota Corolla. I have had a multitude of econo cars, and this one was the best. They are light on the gas and very straight forward vehicles. Also, their parts are typically much cheaper than Civics (which actually have some pretty pricey parts). Also, my other econo cars were theft/break-in magnets, whereas the Corolla was not.

ford thunderbird 2002-2004?

Toyota Corolla/Chevy Prizm. I have a 99 Prizm with over 200.000 miles on it. It runs great, does not give me problems, and gives me about 34 mpg with a mix of highway and city driving. I had a 94 in high school that was a super reliable car.
Good luck!
