I dont know what it is either not a lot of Honda/Toyotas for sale in my price range or at all. Living in the suburbs of Detroit a lot of pressure to buy American because everyone knows somone working for one of them.

I have two uncles and a good family friend all working for different car companies, now if I was buying new I would buy American, but buying a used POS doesnt really make a difference.

Today I looked at like 7 cars, test drove the elantra and Talon. Elantra did not run that great and needed tires and brakes in the near future. The talon ended up being pretty shady. 57k miles on it but it was a 97 looked like the engine had a lot more than 57k miles. The guy who was selling it seemed shady as well on how long he had had it and stuff like that. It also died pulling into his driveway lol

So the search continues, I think it is 50% luck and 50% persistence to just keep looking and eventually get lucky and find a gem.

Add to the list if the car has a Enterprise Used Car sticker do not buy it lol
