Gotta say, the savings isn't so astronomical with a second car that I'm am interested in driving the perverbial beater. I work long hours and have no interest in spending my off time turning wrenches. Most cars here at $5k and under are 140k mile rust buckets with worn out seats. I'm too old for that crap. I will consider a comfortable ride that is in good shape, and would pay extra for lower miles than sit in a pregnant rollerskate with 100k miles.
You might want to look in other parts of the US. A few months back I bought a Beamer in mint condition for 10K. So what if it had 100k on it. Looks like new, drives like new and is about 40K less than new.
Next week I'm going to buy an Infinity for 3K. Not as nice as the Beamer but REALLY nice car!
They are out there. You just might have to travel to find them that's all. It just give you an excuse to RV to none rust states and pick up a car. :B
