What should I do with the extra $2 grand? What modifications will make it better?[/QUOTE]
I thought you wanted something fast and reliable? That's a base model American motor. Neither fast or reliable.
[QUOTE=Hack;32368012]I personally feel that hondas are for old people. The black grand prix is not Girly at all. The other collies like red are.
I made this thread to see the other options.
if that's for girls, I don't know what is for men.[/QUOTE]
Honda's are for old people:

Honda CRX
actually the grand prix is a great car for a young driver. no tears when they total it. the motor has been made for a decade.gets ~26 mpg. rides smooth.
and synthetic oil in a normal motor doesn't mean nothing. as long as it is changed on time. the car doesn't know what oil is in it.
around here older women drive the grand prixs.

Thanks for reminding me that in order for hondas to appeal to young people you need to have a leaf blower and airplane wings.
Because a car absolutely has to have a fart can and "Airplane wings" to be cool/hip/a tuner...The more i see you post the more i think you're an idiot
I'm not even a honda fanboy but atleast i can recognize that there isn't actually anything wrong with them, they are generally pretty all around good cars...
get a civic

i like how he asked a simple question and you are all still crying about his opinion on cars.
yay facepunch carbros
After asking said question he spent the majority of the time talking about how shit a good car company is; I don't care about opinions, if he doesn't like them fine, but just because he doesn't like them doesn't mean they aren't good. All I'm trying to say.
4runner 97' with a manual trans and the 5vzfe.
my dad has one, it has 410 000km of hauling 5000lb+ trailer and he only needed to change the clutch once, timing belt twice, regular maintenance and THAT'S IT!
if you want a invincible car, it has to be a 97' 4runner. Plus, you can switch it into 4wd in the winter when it's slippy, you have H2wd, H4wd and a low range 4wd. it's quite comfy and it,s not expensive to insure

My dad had to replace the alternator 4 times on his 1990something Grand Am, but it was all under warranty.

So what, you dont have to like it but it does prove my point that they are not for old people.
Next to that:
Any car that comes with a complementary hot blonde is good in my book.

Anyways, I use an Automatic because I live in the largest city in Canada, with 2 million people. Traffic with manual? No thank you. There is traffic 24/7.

but the posted car looked like a riced piece of shit
if you get the grand prix, make sure everything is working fine. Save the money for later repairs (pontiacs are out of production and any repair will cost you)
Don't make a thread with the title, "asking for cheap reliable car" and then shoot down the most obvious fucking choice.
That being said, you can't go wrong with a Toyota Supra Mk III. You can find them for around $5k~. Fast, reliable, coupe. And within your budget.
Also 3.0L I6 with a turbo-charger, rear wheel drive. What more can you want?

have fun paying for a shitload of repairs
pontiac, and american cars for that matter, aren't that reliable
>honda is reliable because one guy got a car past 300k
>my friends [I]90's v6 mustang[/I] has about 270k on it and is fine
>my brotastical 90's pontiac has about 340k on it
dat logic
>Mustangs are reliable because my friends' stang got to 270k and is fine
>Same with pontiac
dat reverse logic
You can say the same about any fucking vehicle out there, but if you ask me it all depends on the driver. If he keeps up on maintenance and takes care of it, the fucker will last forever. If you don't, then i guess once you hit that magical wall of 300k miles, no matter what you drive, it suddenly breaks down according to most people, but whatever.
same exact logic, because one car got that far they all do bro, buy honda always, trust me guys, im from new joisey
