im not really worried about gas i live in a really small town and the only places i go are work and school, what i am worried about is if its just going to die because it has quit a bit of miles on it or if it will be a good car for awile

if you want a caprice id just spend a little extra and get one with a little lower miles. I'd invest in something that will probably be more dependable

I know what you mean but hears the deal... I dont know sh*t about cars, i live in a small town and i need to buy a used car, i really like the cheavy caprice's. I just found a 91 caprice, the guy said it has like 700k miles on it, but on the new tranny and motor there is only 5-10k he also said its not a pos at all, the thing is i have to drive over a hour away to check it out other then the one pic ive seen of it and the exterior is really nice looking and its only $2000 do you think this is worth it?

why do u want such big cars?

they are like driving boats. they bob up and down when u go over bumps.

get something smaller, save urself money.

get an import, repairs cost very little, and u can get a nicer car for less.

 

[ufvj2172]

import repairs are less? wtf?

 

[notmade 10+ year member]

because i want something with 4 doors and alot of trunk room and i do not want a honda

 

[andrewmoore13 10+ year member]

import repairs are less? wtf?

um yea actually. honda's and toyotas cost nothing to fix?

i guess if u want a boat.

Some people prefer the sloshy ride to that of a bumpy ride most small imports offer. Its the 'cadillac feel'.
How nice of an import can you get for $2k? Seriously. And repairs are not a plus for imports friend, that goes in the negative column. Most imports' parts cost more than domestic vehicles.

If you think toyota or honda parts, imported, are cheaper than domestic parts... you simply dont know what you are talking about. Imports are notorious for having higher maintenance/parts costs.

It probally went down at 70,000 miles like most chevys do....not 700,000 heck GM would probally give him a free car to have his in a commercial or an add or something if it went that far on the original drive train...
