[@PiggieMom]

In 2015 or 2016, my wife and I bought a 94 Pontiac Sunbird for $500. It had a lightswitch jerryrigged to the dash that had to be flipped for the starter to work. We were able to drive it for 3 months, and then it caught fire on the freeway. We junked it and figured we would have paid more than $166 a month for a rental car, so it was a good enough deal to get us through a few months.

[@BREEZYM6015]

I'm looking for a used car. What's the minimum amount that I should pay and how old of a car should I be looking at? Is buying a car that is more than 10 years old too much of a risk? Paying $700 seems like too good of a deal and risky.
