I'm looking for the best car under 17k. I was thinking I might be able to find an STi, or maybe a BMW ci. What do you think? Oh yeah, it has to be able to hold skis, so no roadsters.
 
definitly can find a beemer. 325/328/330 all could be had for that price. Could look at a 525/530/540 too. or an older 7 series. or even a 98-99 m3.

sti will most likly be pretty beat u;p if no having a salvage title.
 
you can have my car for free with your donation of $16999 transfered to my swiss bank account.
 
and since you ski PNS we dont get much snow down there. so id personally go for a msutang. you could find a 30k miles 03 cobra for that price. they will run low 12s stock. im assuming you are looking for a faster vechile.

also a ford lightning, not 4x4, but still ok in the snow. possibily a chevy ss.

basically right now anything can work for you. especially with your budget.

are you wanting to pay in full. meaning no loans? car truck suv? gas mileage matter much? 4x4 or awd necessary. are you gonn mod it? if so how far?
 
most insurance companies wont insure a salvage title car. and in some states you cant even get a salvaged car titled.
 
Here are the cars I'm considering

2001 BMW 330ci with around 70k miles, I've found a couple.

2002 MB CLK320

2004 infiniti g35 coupe, with salvage

Audi A6

Subaru STi

VW GTi, maybe

VW Jetta

And some others...
 
a friend of mine has a cavi with 3 turbo chargers linked up in it. fast as hell. $2,000. it'd be hard to find an sti for under 18,000. I'd just buy a caddy for like...$6,000 and put a system in it, buy 24's, and new paint job.

Unless youre a fan of european cars. They have great engineering but theyre expensive as fuck to find parts for.
 
#1 at 17,000 the reserve isnt met.

#2 there are 3.5 days left. The price will go up. Ebay is good to buy from, not price compare, unless there is a buy it now.
 
id go with a Audi S4 or the A6 number one, if you are looking at those particually. I dont like the clk320. salvage=bad. If i was looking at bmw, mb, and audis i wouldnt consider a lesser brand personally. granted vw is audi but there is a big diff still.
 
what kind of retard would ever buy a car off of ebay?? especially a 17000$ car?? and most of the cars on their have salvaged titles.....hence the reason for putting them on e-bay, they won't be sold in real life
 
u ever seen an s4 for 17k or under?? there must be something seriously wrong with it if you have........there is no way youll be able to get one in good shape for that price. also, i think itd be better to by a new legacy or vw instead of buying a bmw or mercedes with 70-100k on it. there is a reason why cars are sold used, and new is the way to go. most used cars have somethging wrong with them and thats why there being sold. you will only have problems with a heavily used car whereas a new one will be warrantied for the next 5-10 years. also......you cant get a loan in most places for salvaged titles, so i wouldnt bother with those either
 
my friend who is an audi mechanic at a dealer has a 2000 s4. it has upgraded k04s fmic, chip, intake, fuel system, exhaust, ect. 50,000 miles and is selling for 17,500. thats what 2000s go for.
 
yeah, maybe your right. i thought u meant somewhat of a new audi. atleast the past 2 body types, not one that is 8 years old. i would never blow 17k on an 8 year old car. especially an audi they are known for electrical problems.
 
thats what im saying.....dont buy a used car that once costed 50k.......buy a new car that costs 17k now......you'll be a lot happier in the long-run
 
I don't think you guys realize how expensive it is to take care of some of those cars....If you get an audi or a BMW and something goes wrong with it, you're fucked. The repairs are sooooo expensive its rediculous.
 
which is pointless if you are 16...owning an audi s4 and trying to get 4-5 years out of it? its pointless, the money you would put into it is a huge waste at that age
 
its pointless at any point in your life. if you can afford an s4, then buy one, if you cant, dont try to find an 8 year old used one, its probably not gonna work out too well
 
you cant make the generalization that he is 16. for all you know he is graduationg college and is gettin a more professional ride.

I will always buy a used vechile. no point to buy new, drive it off the lot, and bam your 50k rs4 is now worth 40k. Wait like 2 yrs and watch the price drop dramatically.

And my buddies 2000 s4 is soooo much nicer than my friends 04 escalade, or my buddies 06 pontiac.
 
you know what i mean jerk off.......if it was really a nice car that would sell easily, itd be sitting in atleast a used car lot or at an audi dealership...
 
wait 2 years for them to beat the shit out of it....and of course an s4 is nicer than a pontiac....why would u even compare those 2 cars
 
people that i know with cars such as audis, bmws, and mb, dont beat on them.

and the comparison is because somone said that a new car is soo omuch nicer than a 8yr old car. im saying that yes generally speaking that is true, but when it comes to a luxury brand a used one is nicer than some new cars.

 
dude all the cars you want arent chill cars for teenagers, you will look like such a tool.

Get a chill, older SUV or Truck or Wagon

Like a X country

or

Audi Allroad since you want to show how big of a 16 year old baller you are

Defender, Range Rover, or Discovery

2 door tahoe

1999-2006 tahoe

late 90s to late 80s land cruiser
 
If you're 16-24 definantly don't get an STi or any turbo'd cars because you're looking at tons of money in insurance and it adds up. You can get a 4 door like a grandprix or a granddam which arent necassarily beaters but they arent bad speedwise and are cheap, insurance will be cheap, parts wont be hard to find. When you're 25+ with a good looking record you can get a nice quick ride and it wont be half as bad.
 
you'd be retarded to get one of the super expensive cars that kids are suggesting in this thread. get a new or one year old used car for 17k. it won't break and if it does, it will be under warranty. sure, it'll be cool to have an m3, but you'll be pissed when you have to spend mthree thousand dollars to change the brake pads.
 
cobras are sickkkkk. but if you want one in good condition your gonna have to pay more then 17k, a friend of mine has an 03' cobra and it puts down 580whp on pump gas and 640 on race fuel
