I'm looking to purchase a winter beater in the coming month or so - as my current vehicle I would consider "unsafe" to drive.

I currently have a $5000 budget in mind, preferably looking for a Japanese vehicle that's reliable and okay on gas. The vehicle I would like should still have a "fun" factor element. If the vehicle doesn't hit the max budget, I wouldn't mind putting a bit of cash into the vehicle for upgrades to brakes/tires/suspension. Automatic or manual transmissions - doesn't matter which one.

If it makes any difference, I live around the Burnaby/Coquitlam mountain area where the incline and declines are steep

Open to all suggestions, thanks in advance :thumbs:

i like this:

1995 Subaru Impreza Outback rs2.5 (lots of new parts) - $5000 (Arbutus and King Edward) 1995 Subaru Impreza Outback rs2.5 (lots of new parts)

http://images.craigslist.org/00606_a...XK_600x450.jpg

has great engine swap project potential during the warm months.
