I hear this kind of stuff all the time, but I have never spent more than the cost of the car in repairs. Maybe half - and my cars have not been creampuffs by any stretch and were purchased cheap. I guess it depends on how nitpicky you are - and if you are going for a fully restored car, or just a daily driver that will "do the job."
