I bought it for $700, then it cost $150 to register and title it. I've put $350 in parts in it ($220 for iacv, $30 interior door handle, $20 exterior door handle, $25 freon, $55 for new ignition, door lock, and trunk lock cylinders) and all it needs is a gauge cluster (found one at the junk yard for $35 but not planning on getting it too soon, maybe after I get pulled over and get the 10 day grace period to have a working speedometer), gear synchro for 3rd (I'll probably do all of them, 5th isn't the best and the car has 170k miles and has never had a tranny flush), and now I have to figure out why it's overheating when it idles for a while and fix that... But other than that, it's good! Already painted (which I'll do again, I want black bc red attracts cops), lowered, and windows are tinted! I might get rims at some point but the 16" steelies are fine for now, I like the look of them more than the look of a lower bank account balance.

Just bought my second coupe a week ago for $2000 and so far just on fixing the tings wrong with it I am at about $500, and will take another 1500-3000 to get the rest fixed, which includes, a bit of rust I found at the top of the windshield after the front windshield molding came loose, luckily I won't be paying for dent removal, or it would easily add another 1500 to the tab, but once I get everything fixed its mod time.

1990 Accord DX 4 door 5spd
I spend 750 bucks on a payment plan that i set up with a buddy. 132,000 miles. I've put 15k on it since October of last year.
Has very little rust (biggest issue where I live on the ocean, lol) and only a few real issues. I think I made an alright choice based on my other options.
I had to do some basic maintenence totalling around like a hundred bucks, and i've done the valve cover gasket twice because I'm inexperienced and messed it up the first time. So around 65 bucks for that.
Also an IAT sensor for $30
Other than that, i have to make it stickerable. So that will be new tires (obv) making the exhaust acceptable (it's a shitty fart pipe. I'm still learning more about what I have to do, haha) a new windshield and some random small things.

Bought my 93 for 800 I'm figuring I've got close to 2000 in it total. Not including my rim and tire combo
-blower motor& resistor
-main relay
-fuel pump
-clutch, flywheel, throw out bearing
-slave cylinder, clutch master cylinder
-r.o.h conversion (hubs,wheel bearings,rotors,pads)
-upper/lower control arms, balljoints, inner & outer tierods
-starter
-alternator
Now I've got to figure out the rear suspension noise and replace everything back there, coilovers to get rid of the current monster truck stance. Either rebuild the head or buy a new one (my valves make alot of noise and valves were properly adjusted)
There is plenty more quirks and bugs that need to be worked out before the car is perfect

My team and I paid $2100 for our 1991 LX. It already had a LeMons compliant cage, race seat, race harness, and cutoff switch. The cage would have cost $2k so it was a pretty good deal.
I keep a spreadsheet of costs so we know who has spent what which tells us roughly what fraction of the car each of us owns. Including the purchase, and expendables like oil, brakes, and tires, and things like wheels and repairs we've spent $14,104 on the car so far.
For all that money our car has one seat, no interior, no side windows, no ac, and no ps. Every body panel is at least a little banged up and the frame is probably a little bent. It rattles like hell, has roll-on rustoleum paint and isn't even street legal.==========================

$700 I think for my current CB. Or that was the asking price. I honestly dont remember exactly. However,
Daily driver, $700 purchase price, $2100 in it including all maintenance, labor billed (exhaust, lifetime alignment etc nothing mechanical).
$2800 total and driven it almost everyday to work for 18 months.

originally bought my first CB3 with only 50k miles for 1900€. completely rust free, stock carburated F20A6. had to do timing belt, cv boots and a complete service though. after that, a lot of money was spent on parts - resurfaced USDM alloys, parking pole, leather interior, new radio antenna, AC, wooden shift knob and steering wheel, personal box and a lot of small details. stopped counting how much money i spent over the time.
currently running a pgm-efi cb3 with f20A4 as a daily, bought if for 1350€ with some rare parts - including another set of wooden steering wheel/knob, center console armrest, personal box and more.
