Check out something listed at $1500 and offer them $1250 cash. If it doesn't have a title or keys it's worth no more than $300. I overpaid for my Civic at $1400 (minus $180 of parts sold off) and it needed a new alternator and a steering bolt tightened.

Start searching for 88-00 Civics or CRX's, but not Si performance models.

Also look at Corollas, etc. Manual transmission or nothing. Geo Prisms are Corollas. Geo Metros are boring.
