Basked solely on that Chevy Astro that was featured here yesterday, I'm gonna say Toyota Sienna.

Ah, crap. And I'm outta the edit window...

Three grand for running, driving, AWD, AND working AC? This is the definitive winter beater.

Pretty clean, decent miles AND service records? NP for this Cali ride!

I haven't driven THIS generation, but I have driven an MR2, and it was my understanding that of the 3 versions, this was the least desirable. That's why I put bad in quotes. It's not that it's a bad car, it's just not the best MR2.

This is the "bad" Mister Two. At least it's not an automatic, but the transmission isn't enough to save it from the dreaded ND.

This may be a little out of left field, but you can buy a good, driver quality Model T all day, every day for $8-12k.

I’m calling this NP, or at least within negotiating distance. It looks pretty straight and rust free. The glass is clear and not cracked, and the trim seems to all be there.

It looks pretty clean and it’s low miles. Plus it had the head gaskets done at 60k.

This is a case where you’re buying the owner as much as the car.

It looks good, reasonable miles, well equipped, and a California car? I hit the NP! It's a San Francisco treat!

Good looking car, low miles, reasonable price. NP!

Yeah, that’s a ND from me dawg. The dealer speak screams curbstoning, and that paint mismatch on the the passenger front fender sure makes it look like it’s taken a pretty good hit up front.

I have a weird love for the 2nd gen Geo Metro 2 door hatch. I don't know why, but when I see one, I get a little thrill. I've never owned one or even driven one, but whenever I'm perusing the classifieds and one is available, I always think "maybe I should buy it..."

Ten grand is a lot for a limited use car that’s not your “fun” car.

I'm gonna give it a NP, if this is your thing. It for sure isn't mine, but hey, it's a fairly cheap drop top from the land of no road salt. Buy it and enjoy it!

ND

1976. I was five. My dad worked for the parks department of the city we lived in, and he was part of the group that set up the Bicentennial Parade.

I'm gonna call it as within negotiating distance of NP. It looks pretty clean, and being in California, it's probably rust free. But what is up with the T-tops? Is there a cover on them or what?

You're better off not knowing.
