Default I need a beater.

Hey guys I'm in the market for a beater car because I feel like I'm putting too many miles on my S as a DD. Also, every time I wash my S it rains the next day making it a total waste.

Looking for a foreign make sedan with good MPG. (Honda, Toyota, Mazda, Nissan, Hyundai. etc..)

I'm looking to work around $2,500 with less than 200k miles. If you guys know anyone who's selling something old let me know. Body doesn't have to be in top notch condition but motor should be running strong.

Just picked up a 98 Impreza L Edition Sedan, 2.2L. 102k Miles. 300 Dollars. It got into an accident. I will need to change the headlight, turn signal, bumper and fender. I already pulled off all the body panels last night. The motor is mint and the car runs great.

http://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/cto/2459727562.html This is what I bought.

This is the motor after I cleaned it.

Very sad that it's an automatic.
