2007, 85K, 5-speed, three door. Owned by an older man who lived in rural OH. No accident damage.


Financing roughly 1/2 of it at 3%.



Pics soon




Feel tighter than my old car ever did....

Things I have learned


Always carry full coverage

If a car has a hint of ever being in accident, walk away. This car is all original and feels so much tighter.

I paid 6K even, which is what the guy owes on it.

Not a bad deal at all.

Look at the bright side of the accident, at least you got out of that frumpy sedan and got into a proper hatch :lol:

I still lost like $3500 this weekend. And this car has no options....manual locks and windows. I don't even have a tach. My old car had everything. This has not that much.


But it is a hatch....


It's kind of nice to get rid of my old one, though. I needed a bit of work - work I didn't want to do. Also, It held a lot of memories. Loads of bad ones.

Would have given you $20 for the rims off the old one :lol:

I think the hatch looks much better than  the sedan as well.

Nice. I like the hatch more than the sedan as well. Would I be wrong in assuming this thing has like half the miles your old one did?

A hatch will be super handy during the college moves.

Nice, the hatchback actually looks good. These micro cars always looks weird in sedan form.

Mine had 109K when I wrecked it.


But it had previously already been wrecked.



Didn't want, nor could I find a Fit, and everything else is more expensive to run and insure and own.

I didn't know about the accident. Glad you're ok.  :ohyeah:

It is, nearly identical inside measurement wise to the Corolla.

The hatch is also roomy, especially being such a short car

Congrats on the new ride!  Try not to crash this one.  :tounge:

You're my age.  We're getting old.  Plus, now that you're married, your life expectancy has gone way down, since you're more likely to be poisoned by your wife.
