Basically, it's the swelling of the spinal cord. Very scary.   Mark Replies to this message: roadburner (Nov 08, 2009 8:06 am) corvette (Nov 08, 2009 9:01 am)

Replying to: tifighter (Nov 07, 2009 4:17 pm) I think the Vehicross is cool too. Like a life sized hotwheels toy.

Replying to: anonymousposts (Nov 07, 2009 6:01 pm) I like the GS300s too, that would be another choice for me, but they seem to be hard to find.

Replying to: steve_ (Nov 07, 2009 9:39 am) Well the sand box used to be the BMW X3 forum but....I agree completely.       I remember a friend buying his kid a brand new car for $7500 maybe five years ago. They were looking at used cars since he was taking this off to school with him and was probably going to treat it badly but they couldn't believe they could get a whole new car with warranty for that kind of money.
#15034 of 15291 I play the what if I had $X to spend by guss Nov 08, 2009 (5:09 pm)
while paging thru the Autoshopper. In the 7500 price range I would probably get a Mazda Protege5. A good value and reliability along with usefulness.   A front wheel drive Escape would also be a good buy. There were so many made a cheap one with under 100k miles should be easy to find.   I like boomer's Axiom idea, they were neat when they came out, the only problem I had with them was that they were gas pigs.

Replying to: guss (Nov 08, 2009 5:09 pm) P5 was at the top of my list, or at least near the top. Hard to find a lower-mile one, and REALLY hard to find one with the optional ABS or side-airbags. I drove a 02 5-spd for a few years...a great drive.   As for Andre's post, the midsize sedan at this price is a tough one. First thought was Mazda6, since Mazdas don't usually hold value like the Toy-Hon-ssan group, but after a quick look, these seem to be holding their value well and not really falling to under $7500. No luck on a Malibu Maxx, either. I found a Ford Five Hundred with 74k miles 7995, but would be leery of that CVT, We all know Andre isn't a Ford guy anyhow   (Also while looking, I saw a 08 Kia Rondo V6 for $9500 with 40k miles. That could be a sweet deal for someone looking for a practical used car.)
