I'd look for a miata with reasonable miles, they run forever and are cheap on gas and fun to drive plus maintenance/parts is dirt cheap. Check DFWmiata.com classifieds.

Alternatively I'd say check out a 91-94 Nissan Sentra SE-R, cheap on gas, fun, pretty reliable as well. Check the SR20forums for a SE-R or SE-R.net

Don't mean to hijack your thread Lee, but I need a bit of help too or I'm going to strangle my gf.

I've showed her everything under the sun in her price range and i'm all out of ideas.

Pref: Jap. because her bro won't let her have anything else.
has to be auto. MY00 or up $9K max.

I've shown her celica,eclipse,solora,accord coupe,civic coupe.
I give up, i've been looking for 3 weeks, i'm going crazy here guys, it's worst than going shopping for shoes with her!

It's always the "wrong shade of white", huh?

I had one just like her man.

I've got a 97 Villager I'm about to sell with 136k miles on it. Extremely reliable. All power, leather, sunroof, alloys... asking $3k cash. If you can stand a minivan (very comfortable and practical), it's a good deal. PM if interested.
