Buying a cash car-?

Question:
What would be a good cash car to buy if you have about $4000, and you want something luxurious? I've head that Lexus LS400 runs good even after many many miles. I've also seen some nice 90's Cadillacs with low miles. Any ideas?

Answers:

Does anyone know where I could get a copy of a used car price guide for the year 1992?

What's your definition of "luxurious"?

2007 Mazda 3 S Sport or Honda Civic coup EX?

A Lexus might be reliable (and they are) but I wouldn't count on repairs being as cheap as most 4000 dollar cars. For example, a Lexus LS400 brake master cylinder runs about twice that of a Mazda Miata (my benchmark for cheap car parts). Also, luxury cars are often more complex, and thus take more time (and usually money) to repair.

How can I become a dealer in Chrysler?

I'd suggest looking for Ford/Lincoln/Mercury Crown Vic/Town Car/Grand Marquis, or a Thunderbird/Mark VIII/Cougar. They're reliable, roomy, and comfortable. Also, there are early 90s BMWs that you could afford. 3 series parts for that era are pretty cheap, actually. (Not Crown Vic cheap, but better than that Lexus.)

Can I use my altima hybrid on the car pool lane?

You might find a Hyundai XG300 around the top end of your price range. Not as reliable as a Town Car, but pretty good, and quite comfortable.

Your best bet, though, is a RWD Ford/Lincoln/Mercury, no question.
