Ive learned all about rust when Icrawled under my 81 Camaro for the first time

Numero uno.

It doesn't take long to get used to the increased distance to merge, either.

I agree with everyone that the 240D is probably the most car for the money (provided the rust isn't an issue). It will be the easiest/cheapest to work on.

You do realize that anything in this price range is going to eat up at least several $100 to a couple $1000 per year just to keep it in reasonable condition? You are buying a hobby.

Seriously, if you just want $2000 worth of carefree transportation, buy a old civic.

One looks better.

Two would have been my first choice, but since you can't see it BEFORE you buy...makes it a no go.

Three, well, all I can say is Run, Simba, Run, and never go back.
