Default Need some advice

well, ill be looking to buy a car soon, and im not sure what kind i should be looking for. i just need some ideas on what cars i should be looking for, for what i need. my dad has to approve of any car i buy first. the car i get he would like to be no more than 80k miles, and nothing wrong with it running wise. and the looks has to be atleast decent. my range of money is about 2000 - 3500.

just let me know what cars i could look for in that area, ive looked at quite a few, but i want all my options open so i can look at a lot more cars.

and no, this thread DOES NOT belong in the for sale section, it has nothing to do with me saying WTB, i just wanna get ideas on what i can get under my specifications.

thanks in advance.

holy shit i typed alot

^ he hit the nail on the head

i really dont care what car it is. as long as its not like most cars i see on her for sale, meaning.... "for sale great car (needs trans)" or some bullshit like that. or needs a hood, bumper, radiator, timing belt, all that shit. screw that. that would never get by my dad.

some cars ive seen that are definately possibilities are like

SOME integras
some 300zx
240sx
sunfire
mirager (sisters)
accords


theres more, but im kinda stupid right now, cant think.

Under 80K miles with 3500 as a cap is gonna be TOUGH to find. I suggest a mid '90s Camry or Corrolla, or an up-to-'92 Accord.
