Iam going to sell my car to a contact through a friend, I've considerd buying a motorcycle, all i want is something that is reliable and good on gas. Im considering leasing a car but...I dunno.
 
get something that will last until you graduate. Get an older pontiac with a V6, you dont really want to get into debt or have monthy payments over a hunk of metal do you?

Do yourself a favor and save that $3500. It'll be "time for something different" when you've lowered your debt and have a steady job.

QFT save yp some money for a better car. It will be worth it.
 
well this car is also giving me plenty of problems. Overheating, cooling pipes are rusty, i replace the coolant and it gets all rusty orange within a week.

Well that's a much better reason to get a different car 🙂 I would suggest browsing locally for deals, or checking out Ebay. Make sure you get a Carfax before you decide to purchase, and have it checked out by a mechanic you can trust.
 
With $3500, you can get a nice oversized wing for your car (adds 20hp), some dubs (reduces drag coefficient by .35) some nice neons (reduces drag coefficient by .2), and a carbon fibre hood (reduces weight 50%).
