I tried autotrader.com but they didn't have anything in my $1,200 price range. Are there any better websites? I'm not looking for a sports car, just a family type car or a mini-van. I know $1,200 is not a lot but then again I'm not too pressed about it anyway.
So does anyonw know of any other sites other then autotrader or EGay?

I went and looked at that yesterday. That car is TOTALED! the frame is bent, the passenger side got hit so hard the Front Airbags deployed. There is also a hole in the roof.
Oh yeah to the AssHat above. Yes I have $1,200. Bite me!

Well it didn't have to be a civic persay. just something similar. Yeah I didn't figure I would find exactly a civic. At least with an engine, doors and tires. :-)

Just out of curiosity....why do some of you give this guy such a hard time?
Did he do something that offended some of you?
Just some food for thought. :idunno

I'd give anyone a hard time for not going to http://www.google.com and typing in something. I went there, typed it in, and found what he was looking for. People who are too lazy to even do any kind of search on their own piss me off.
