What car time again.
Discussion
I need help...I'm trying to think of a good way to clear my finance atm so I can then sell my car and get something new. So this is where PH comes in.
I would like 2 door coupe for 5.5k or less. Has to be reliable with minimal servicing as sometimes other things come first and a service just has to wait. Decent fuel economy and cheap for a young lad like me to insure.
RWD is preffered but I dont mind FWD if the car is right. I have considered MX-5s, mk1's worry me with higher milage and mk2's are abit girly looking. I have also considered later model celicas but they reportedly drink oil after about 40k miles.
So what else should I consider? and please tell me the pros and cons and what to look out for.

I would also possibly consider a CLK as there are some dogs at that price range but a few gems exist and one of the 230K's might fit the bill not sure about the insurance though! Never know it might sneak under the radar as less of a performance car so might luck out.
One of the Hyundai coupes might also work out ok.
