WTB reliable car for around $3,000 to $4,000 with ac

[jbh]

I am posting this for someone else. They need reliable transportation that has ac and is automatic transmission. Something Japanese like an civic, corolla, accord ect would be ideal. I understand it will be older and may not be perfect looking. It does need to be a four seater. I was hoping someone on this forum may have something they may want to sell or know someone who does. I will check craigslist too and other sources.

Thanks!

I've got a Saturn SC1 2001 I can sell. It has 175k but is apparently one of the easiest domestic cars to work on, is incredibly reliable, and gets me 38+ mpg.

Thanks for the offer. She is really looking for a 4 door Asian car.

Not asian, but is very solid and exactly they type/price range. Besides, the motor is what goes in the NC miata, so its plenty solid.

I was just asked by a friend to sell a 2006 Ford Focus 4-dr auto/ac base car (manual windows and locks, nothing to break!) with 141k. It has fresh paint, tinted windows, clean interior and recent matched tires. Everything seems to be in good working order. LMK if you want more info.

Says the guy that went through 2 motors on his NC in 2 years :)

No, only one motor swap, and it turned out the first motor was actually fine all along. Just a noisy vvt actuator misdiagnosed by a supposed NC-expert as a bent valve. Really very good motors overall.

That would be the perfect car except for the manual Trans.

Thanks!
