Buying & Selling - August 2006

I can't beleive why we consumers have to be gouge by some ford dealerships on their ford gt500's. I understand the secondary market has the right to push the vehicles up, but for a dealership I think is wrong. I remember when the thunderbirds came out and they gouge, How would you like to have one now, when alot of people paid over $ 50k for them in 2002. I believe the same thing will happen on the gt500.

I"m looking for a small car that I can use to learn how to work a manual tranmission and do a little bit of crazy driving. It has to be small, cheap (3,000 or less used) and have a really good transmission. I was thinking the old 80's Toyota Corolla.

In purchasing a new vehicle, NOW, that you intend to keep for approximately 4-5 years, should purchasing a FFV vehicle be a deciding factor? E85 not readily available in my area at this time. Will be hauling a camper. Just looking for some feedback!

I found two used cars that I really like, and I need a lot of help because I don't really know cars too well. I would really appreciate any advice at all on which car to buy. Thanks.

1998 Honda Civic EX Sedan: Power Everything including Sunroof and 6 CD Changer. It looks like a lot of work went into making this car look nice including white custom tail lights, a rear spoiler, and premium wheels. It's got 70,000 miles. The motor appears to have the very beginning of a little bit of oxidation, but it runs great. She's asking $7200.

2001 Saturn SC2: It's the 3 door coupe with 65,000 miles, and very clean, just like the first car. It has power windows, locks, etc., but nothing amazing like a sunroof. It's mostly stock. There appears to be some minor rust damage under the car along with a small oil leak. The engine started right up and ran pretty well. He's only asking $4300 though.

This will be my first car and I'm really confused. What do you guys think I should do?

I used Craigslist to try to buy a car. I received 2 offers on 2 different cars 2 days apart, and the sender was using a Yahoo address. The scam was that I could buy but the car were in Europe, and an intermediary would handle the finances. I have copies of the communications.

Here is what I am considering...
(*slightly used* 05 or 06)
Chevy Impala
Toyota Camry
Nissan Altima
Mazda 6
*currently leaning a little more toward the Altima*
Also, has anyone bought a car off of Ebay? If so, how was the experience? That thought kinda scares me.
