Question $3500 2004 Toyota Camry Solara, black, 5-spd, 4-cyl

Hey there ........ www.aspiremotoringllc.com in Brentwood NH has 110 different uses vehicles, priced from $3500 to $14,999.

The lowest $3500 price is a 2004 Toyota Camry Solara SE Sport, 134,054-miles, 157-hp I-4 engine, manual 5-speed, fwd, cruise control, two door coupe, black outside, 12-photos, "Runs and drives great sold AS IS"

Insuring this with strong coverage probably costs $1000-1200/year, here in central N.H. or $100/month.

And who knows how many different items like wheel bearings, brakes, suspension, belts, hoses, this, that and the other thing will need replacing?

A test drive is free ....... so, who knows how good or bad this 21-year old car is? And does it come with a 30-day WARRANTY in case the ac or the cruise turns out to NOT work? No warranty is mentioned.

Ten out of the 110-vehicles have manual stick shifts.

And, just noticed there is a $3000 2000 Ford Mustang, 2dr fastback, V6, 5-speed, 169,644-miles, green/beige, rwd ....... huh ....... how's about this car? ..... ...... Does anyone buy a 25 year old car like this with 169,644-miles for $3000?

Maybe the Solara and this Mustang are due for a clutch replacement at $1500-2000 which is why they are now for sale? The Toyota being a Toyota Camry 4-cylinder seems like the one less likely to need lots of expensive repairs but you never know?
