I wanna buy a beater car.

Anybody know anyone selling a beater car? I'm looking to spend between $100 and $1000, but the cheaper the better.

What I really want is a 90-92 legacy turbo, or a 240, or an old sentra se-r, or a 90-95 eclipse gsx, or an xt-6, or a crx, or an old british convertable pos like a midget or something, maybe even an old rabbit gti. Any of those i would pick up in a second. Problem is, so would about a million other car nuts. Finding old cars here is like looking for a needle in a haystack, the classifieds are worthless, word of mouth is the only way to go. But it looks like I may be getting a ranger pickup truck, I can always use a truck anyway.

1993 Acura Integra RS 5spd. 115k miles(!?!?)
$2000 OBO
Everything stock including clutch, runs like a charm. Serious beater car. Paint isn't prestine but acceptable. Very clean but does have an aftermarket alarm that needs to be removed since it doesn't work. A/C still works. Aftermarket wheels + Nitto 555 tires(need replacing).

I know its out of your range but daddy needs suspension

not really a beater, but...

1997 BMW M3, 47k miles, black on black, autocross and track proven, lots of A stock and B stock wins

. not to mention autocross times that would be competitive in SM!

car is essentally stock- except for: clear corners, exhaust, wing, and 3 sets of rims- stock, ssr comps, and a set for the track...still running on the stock suspension, no engine mods done...

all stock parts also included...

hmmm...23k obo...

yes, i know it's not in your price range, but since everyone else was posting more expensive cars, i figure i'd do the same...
