now that my car is seriously for sale, i'm starting to look for a daily driver.

my requirements are just that it's stick, has at least 140 horsepower, and i can get it for less than 6 grand. it has to be somewhat reliable, i need it for a year and a half, and then i'm giving it to my sister (who will turn 17 right as i graduate) (and no, she's not hot nor will i post any pictures of her). i really just want something that i can beat up and not worry about, and ultimately park in hoboken next year. if you've ever been to hoboken, you can see why i wouldn't want to keep my TA up here, unless i paid big money for a garage space.

so anyway, i'm surfing autotrader, and i come across a 95 maxima, white, v6, 5 speed, 87k miles. and they're asking 4900... looks like it's at a dealer, but that price is well under blue book, unless there's something wrong with it.

so what do you think? i might be unloading the TA as early as next week, plus i'll be splitting this car with my parents (they can drive it as a second car when i'm not around), so i can definitely afford it.

i also came across a 95 integra special edition with 140k miles for $5500. it actually looks pretty nice - dark green, leather, 5 speed, spoiler, sunroof.
