I was planning to buy a car for $10k but I can't make up my fucking mind which car to buy so I've been paying for an empty parking spot since I sold my previous car more than a month ago. Anyone ever buy a total shitbox just to have something to drive while you're making up your mind what to buy? Is that a good idea?

10k is shitbox territory son. This isn't 2018 anymore.
>>
>>28997144
>2018
Try 2008

Ok, yuppies. More precisely my budget is $10k–$15k. By total shitbox I mean ~$1k.

>>28997139

$1K shitbox isn't going to run unless you get a deal from someone you know. Operational shit box is like $3K.

>>28997139
What are the $10k car choices you're considering? Maybe it's not worth buying a total shitbox for $1k cause you'll have to get rid of it anyway? Are you an amerishart or europoor?

A Festiva would be nice, if you can find a decent one.

>>28997154
>10-15k
Ok so a preowned 4-5 year old shitbox

Even these are going for 6k+ around here and we don't even have bad rust. It might unironically be over.

The cheapest car you can find will be a 1980's 2.2 L auto-3 reliant/aries. They're somewhat rare but universally forgotten. Anything else with even a modicum of reliability will be 3k+, either because it's a good car (Buick/Toyota/Ford panther) or because it's now in "enthusiast" territory due to not being a piggish shitover

Look for a Pontiac Vibe. It is a Toyota Matrix (the hatchback version of the Corolla) but branded as a Pontiac.
You should be able to find one CHEAP, as most owners are oblivious.
>picrel $2400 shekels
You'll have 7 grand to save or splurge on food and such

>1980's 2.2 L
Not a bad idea, but see my Pontiac Vibe idea >>28997754
ANOTHER decent idea is the early 90's Eagle Premier.
The Eagle Premier was directly adapted from the Renault 25
