2004 or 2007...

i have a 2005 aveo ls hatchback and mine was only $4500, it does have 135k miles on it but the water pump and timing belt were just changed on it, they just put a new head on the motor, it had brand new tires on it and a brand new windsheild. I would also try and take down the price a bit

Heck i would sell you my 09 with 43k miles for 6 grand... and its got a lot of good parts :P

I would buy the car (04) that had the timing belt done, only it there is documentation supporting it.

The 07 is already more money, but then another close to $400-500 in immediate maintenance is required.

I would also look at each cars service history. the difference in years and similar mileage on the 07 means more miles in less time which typically also shows lack of maintenance. But that is never a given the less mileage old car might be as well..

Thanks for all the advice. I have to play a bit of a waiting game for a few days, but I'll choose this week sometime...
