95 nissan altima with 60k; some bitch t-bones my dad at an intersection but I bought it back from insurance for about 2000, stripped the interior and other stuff, then took it off road rally with a local car club. Tore the CV joints after going over a few rough spots. Then sold it for 1000 in as is condition.

HAHA 929 thats awesome.

My car is a 91 cherokee 4x4 with 250k miles on it. I bought it for 1,000 and it runs perfect looks perfect on the outside and the inside is great too. Even though I'm a chevy guy I think I'll be a jeep owner till I die.

A few years ago, my car got totaled when a guy crashed into me. A friend of a friend had an old P.O.S. Nissan/Datsun ??? that he just gave to me for free while I waited for the insurance to work it out. It was all rusted, and all the interior was moldy and slashed, and you had to pray everytime you tried to start it, but it got me through a few weeks. I think that vehicle was responsible for most of global warming.

'94 Tbird w/ 120K miles - Free

'89 Tbird w/ 110K miles - $700

The 94 is still going strong after 3 years and a broken odometer. The '89 has been mine for a year with no problems.
