Ok so heres the deal. I think I had it with my CB7. The car needs abit of work.

1. Tie Rods Ball Joints
2. Master Brake Cylinder
3. Real Emission hook ups (I can get away with just doing a new cat and o2 sensor but I'll eventually need to get a 5th gen emissions hooked up)

Theres a few other quirks about the car but I can live with it. Basically I'm looking at about $1500 worth of work. The car's body is still in good shape, no holes, very little to no surface rust but this whole idea of playing the emissions roulette is becoming tiresome so the real answer is getting all the 5th gen sensors and rats nest hooked up (more $$$) so I'm thinking it's time for a new car.

Basically heres my situation. I'm buying a house but I do need a car.

I have a few choics

1. Fix the CB7 and wait till next year to fail emissions again.
2. Buy a $3000 car
3. Buy a $9000-$10,000 used car, put a $3000 downpayment and pay it off monthly.

I think both options have it's risks. If I need to do something major to the car, money is gonna be tight.

What do you guys think?

^1990-1993 Honda Accord. From what ive seen these cars are very very long lasting. I see a lot of these running around DD even though they are almost 20 years old. You can even find some parts a a junk yard. Since your buying a house i would worry about a car later on and house first.
