Hey everyone,
thought i'd make a quick thread, as i need some advice on a great daily driver. Im currently in the market of buying a DD with a relatively small budget (not looking to spend more than 4k). Just wondering with that budget, which cars should i consider?
(Keep in mind i would like the car to be FUN, manual daily beater that i can just drive and feel comfortable in, and maybe throw some mods on it a little later down the line.) the only car that i had in mind was a Integra DA (early 90's). any suggestions/advice would be greatful!!![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I have had a few integra's and they are bullet proof, You can find some nice ones for around your price range, like here is one off the top of my head

Agreed, but I would avoid the Golf/GTI. VWs have too many electrical problems, particularly as they age. The Eclipse, in some forms, can be fun to drive, but, in general, is also poorly-built....most of the used ones I've seen have a number of problems with them, generally hardware items. Older Mitsubishi engines also tend to start to have upper-block problems after 80-90K miles or so.
