unfortunately i have to sell my formula. I just cant make it through the winters with it and am forced to look at something else. Im looking for anything that can make it through a michigan winter and also still be a fun car to drive for under 6000. Anybody have any ideas of any cars that would fit this? thanks!

 

as of now im really only looking at lincoln ls's but really would like to see some other stuff. even something a lot sportier, just something that can make it through snow.

 

I can get you an 98' Z28 in excellent condition,one owner car for under $5000.

 

 

if he got another f body he would be in the same pickle he is in now lol its not solving the problem

 

Our Wisconsin Winters are just as bad as the Michigan winters and my friend with the Z28 had to drive his in the winter here too.With snow tires it was not a problem.

 

Well, diesel trucks are the new hot rod...but your not gonna buy a duramax for $6000.00

 

yeah another fbody wouldnt really help.. although i am thinking about selling mine then possibly getting one that needs some work and a winter beater

 

Any AWD and turbo 5-speed car. Eagle talon, mistubishi eclipse and subaru's. Eagle talons tsi awds can be picked up for under $3000 in decent shape and under 120,000 miles.

 

save up and just buy a 1000 dollar or less beater they arent hard to come by

 

now im thinking that i might get a mark viii. still lookin though. anybody know anything about them?

 

Quite the big pieces of junk. Their airbags are prone to breaking and you will be riding rails like a fat chick in a lowrider competition. My father and I have stripped out 2 of them.

 

why would you want another rwd car if you can't handle the one you have now....?

 

subaru anything......

 

DO NOT go with a Lincoln Mark8.I had one and in the winter they are worst than any F-Body I have driven in snow.Just my opinion thou!

 

Pontiac Grand Prix GTP??? Buick Regal GS???

 

u can buy a 4x4 explorer,4 runner,blazer for under 2300 of course u got to hustle the person lol.......i got a lincoln ls and it isnt the best car believe me i still get stuck. at this time of year if you got the cash goto the big dealer like chevy,ford cause there money hungry morethan ever obviously there trying to barrow millions from the gov..... pay the car in full or do payments .... put 500 down on a 3k car ask for a warrantee as long as u can get and have less than 150 car note. thats what i was thinking and i only had this lincoln since aug.23rd .....o well **** happens to the best of us. good luck but dont sell you baby
and when spring comes sell the car even if u lose out 300-500 bucks u got ur use out of it feel me......
bro...........

 

i tried to stay off this site so i wouldnt be sucked back into my car again but its too late. i might just have to give up leaving the house in the winter since im at college mostly anyways and just keep my car.

 

the latest idea is to sell it in the spring, go one summer with just a new suv, then work all summer and then scoop up an ls1 car for real cheap when everyone is trying to get rid of them in the winter. This is most likely what will happen.
