Getting car, any suggestions?

[elementxero 10+ year member]

Alright, my 91 volvo officially will cost more to repair than it's worth, so it's time to buy a new (used) car.

Looking for suggestions, this is my criteria:

$7k or less

Under 60k miles

Manual Transmission

WELL PLACED FACTORY 6.5" SPEAKER HOLES / Not a PITA to install

I have had way too much hassle putting big speakers in small places, I don't have the patience to fabricate fiberglass or do anything nearly that custom, but I want the midbass and general quality and fullness of 6.5 comps. Every car I have had has been an annoying struggle to install new speaks in.

Now that I'm buying a new car anyways, I want to make sure that I will be able to enjoy a hassle-free install.

Anyone have any suggestions? Any input appreciated.

ive personally always wanted a VW golf, you can get those pretty cheap if your into the hatchback style

Come on you assbags, I want to look at cars at lunch I need ideas. Whats a decent ride with good factory speaker locations?

Thinkin Civic maybe? Not the 2003ish ones with the triangular taillights though, I hate that look.

Yeah, check out 1998-2000 honda civics. Jetta and golfs from 98 and up you can get for around there.
