I just had a hint of this discussion with Ben (SVOboy) earlier.

I told him that the requirements for me to buy a vehicle are that there are less than 4 digits in the price, and the first one is less than a 5.

I've never paid more than $500 for a car. I usually beat 'em up, add stupid little things, and sell them for more than I have into them, including tax/tags/title fees.

If that doesn't happen, I take 'em off the road and part them out, definitely making more money than I have into it. I prefer to keep them on the road or sell as a whole to someone who can use them, though. Less stress that way.
