Anyone know of any good cars for sale for around 8k, preferably under 90,000 miles. It's gotta get atleast 25mpg. Thanks.

depends on what you want. 8000 is plenty for a "good" car. I work at a used car lot and will be back wednesday. pm me if you want. I am sure I have a bunch of cars you can look at.

Ok sounda good, I've seen good and bad come from used car lots, I'd like a 06+ Mazda 3 5spd, or a 06 or newer civic. Or a diamond in the rough, a mazdaspeed protege lol

You shouldn't have a problem finding a clean Mazda3 with the 2.3 for 8k. I've seen MS Proteges in decent shape selling for half that.

Good deal.^^ my girlfriend drives a newer mailbu, it's a really good car for everyday driving, if you're looking for something fun it's probably not going to be your first choice. But if you just want a reliable daily car with nice interior, get yourself a 09+ Malibu.

Eh ive nwver had a thing for chevys. Being a mechanic I find the newer ones a pain in the ass.
