She can't drive a stick, so it's all me. We have an '06 TSX that's her daily driver. We'd keep the Integra as a backup.

That being said, I vote for any 90's honda/acura. Particularly the civic/integra/prelude as they're gonna be pretty similar to the civic/integras that you've had in the past and therefore, easier to work on.
And I'm sure you can find some Honda product for $500, especially if you find something with a blown headgasket, bad axles, something like that...

I'll check the local Craig-Listings, etc. to see what's up.

No but I rode in one once. It was a '92, 5-door and I was 14 at the time. My friend's parent's had a Taurus Wagon in the shop, and it was the loaner. 3-Cylinder, Automatic. My bud's Mum and Pops up front and 3 kids in the back: 9, 13, and me. 0-60 test: 19 Seconds!
I never had the chance to drive one. I missed the Geo rental era...

That's part of the challenge: $500.
I think re-runs of the English version of "Junkyard Wars" has had an influence on me lately
