Its amazing what $1000 will get you on Craigslists.......
The 7 series is a 1990 with 320,000 miles on it and a myriad of issues, front seats re-upholstered like a Tijuana Taxi, no working a/c, etc.
The Topaz is 163,000 mile car that the seller describes as being in “very good” condition and gives the heartwarming endorsement that the car is “reliable transportation”,
Pick your poison.

But can I make it my Deathbed as I drive the wheels off of it?, For how long? one trip to Reno then Vegas and back up to Sackramento?
Or will the vehicle do me better then anything I could pay for in Nevada? Just have a good awareness of rental car places along route to commute back home from wherever.

I would go with the Mercury... I’ll take lower operating costs over lots of non-working features almost every time.

Topaz. At least I can laugh at its mediocrity while getting where I want to go, rather than cry at the ever increasing service bills.
