Making a master list of awesome cars that can commonly be purchased in running order (not necessarily mint cond., but also not necessarily not mint cond.) for $10k or less.

Kinja'd!!!

Feel free to post your suggestions below (has to be something I can repeatedly verify, that one guy selling a 1974 Porsche 911 for $9,999 does not count as the other 90% are selling for 20K +)

Haha... That's like infinite cars.

Some I've owned that might not make the list otherwise: 3rd Gen Prelude 4ws, 323GTX, Protégé 5, 760 turbo

And my summer project for this year : Lincoln Mark III or Mark V.

Yeah this list may end up getting too big. You might have to change it from $10K to $7500 or even $5K

I would nominate any used bimmer model that wasn't known to have a ton of issues. Especially anything with an I6 and MT.

Oh, throw on Corvairs. You can even get the van ramp sides for that price if you're not looking for show room quality.

LOL that's a good idea. The list can be self-maintaining and encompassing. Anyone who has at least $10K can pick from a bunch of cool cars
