I'm looking for a cheap car that's good for local driving and a plus if it can go from lakewood to brooklyn (and back).
I'm looking to spend under $1000. If you have something pm me. Preferably in lakewood area.

Every now and then, I'll see a car for that price range in the BMG CR.

I don't know if you'll find any car for that much that you'll feel safe driving that far.

I'm impressed. Use it in good health, but I hope you have AAA too.

I bought a car last year for under $1,000 it drove without any problems for 10 months & I drove it to ny and back to lkwd a lot of times, but 2 days after I went to isreal a relative of mine totaled it so now I'm stuck and don't think I can find such a good car for that price :-(

This is a great deal on a very good car, assuming it's in good mechanical shape.

I know people who have around 300k miles on this.

Only 77k miles.

Try to talk him down to 2500$

It probaly won't last long.

A 97 is probably better off having higher mileage and been maintained. If this car I Strom Brooklyn it may be only city driving.. Bad for the car....
