I picked up a 2002 4Runner Limited with 137k miles last year for $7,675. Paid cash, and first time I ever got the pink slip to a vehicle... Everything was ALWAYS financed, so it's a MUCH more gratifying feeling.

However I've dropped quite a pretty penny on the car with maintenance and updating things (such as replacing broken stereo, speakers, light bulbs, etc). Total I've spent $4k on maintenance and repairs and another $5k on modest upgrages (such as tires, speakers, headlights, window tint... Nothing crazy like suspension or mods. Just cleaning it up)
 
I got hit by a truck, got paid out, bought a 2nd gen with the initial insurance money, then realized the engine was low compression on 3 cylinders and almost none on one of them, so I decided to sell it despite the clean body. Made a bet that I'd make back what I paid for it, won the bet and split the price of the new truck 50/50 with my moms bf. 5k "2500 each, for a 96 4wd with shit paint, good interior, good under the hood, with car fax and a long list of service records dating to the original owner. spent the better part of a year making it perfect and prepping for paint, now the red sunfaded truck that I bought is in surfside green mica and at this point I've essentially had 2 4runners and one had a sex change.
