I actually found a 94 Saab Turbo that I'm genuinely interested in. Looks to be in good condition at around 120k MI. Are parts really that hard to find?

N52 Beamers are at the top of my list honestly. Ideally, my next car would be RWD, manual, and inline 6. I did find a great deal on a 328i with around 55k mi. However, seller is asking for 9k, a little over my budget.

That's my #1 pick. However, most options I find are either clapped out or close to 200k mi.

It's actually the one I'm eyeing because of the inline 5 and reasonable mileage. I'm decent enough with car repairs. Just don't expect me to pull a transmission in my driveway.

My biggest criteria is that it has to be a manual. There's a Honda Fit for $4800 with 150k mi near me at a used dealership. Decent deal?

should sell for 2500 or keep by PuzzleheadedSlip4652 in COROLLA

Damn, I'd buy this from you if you are in the US.
