This is my business day in and day out, that 1500 dollar car is gonna be a big POS in MOST CASES.
That being said I'm driving a 225k mile civic every day that I bought a couple years back for 1800 bucks.
YMMV.

I agree 100%, I have bought many cars in my young life, and in this economy you will be lucky to be able to find a running car for a thousand bucks. Jason, I hear what you're saying and I believe you, but in my area that is highly unlikely. I go to auctions and check CL and the paper, you will only find a solid car for a thousand bucks if you are in the right place at the right time. I have bought to cars for under a grand, they needed many repairs.
