ok so i'm about to embark on a holy mission, buying a used car. i found a 1998 eclipse gsx turbo for 5,995. it's got road rash from a guard rail on the passenger side, but they company said they'd fix it and paint it. i'm also considering having them paint it white instead of the green color. it has a grey interior that definetely needs cleaned. and it's a 5 speed.

now i'm also considering this, i found a 99 dodge neon SRT with a V6 turbo engine swapped for it's original V4. it's going for 6,199. it's a whit exterior with red striped, beige interior in great condition, sunroof, and it's got a custom installed 6 speed tranny.

so what one should i buy?????

I say you buy the Eclipse, cheaper and is much better looking outside, the inside doesn't really count because people usually stare at the outside and not the inside
Yay for eclipse!

How much is the Nissan?
I have a Honda Civic. I got it for free.

the nissan is originally 21,000, but he knows he won't sell it especially if it's a RHD.....nobody knows how to drive on lol. plus i worked for them when they were building a new house, he said he'd knock it down to 15,000

it's not just about price, but reliability, insurance, etc.....

Well after you buy, get it fixed up. I don't have insurance so I only know about reliability.
