That might have been a bad time though - was during Cash 4 Clunkers so all the bottom feeders were busy getting cars from Obama. The market might be better now. Hmmm...
Well for one, you gotta buy cars that are common and know what age range you are trying to target. IMO people who buy saturns are about 24-35 yrs of age, who doesnt care about the car and probably take care of em jst to stay afloat.

You can find and buy a honda civic for $1K from a shop or anyone who came up on a new car and jst tryin to get rid of it, and you can turn around and sell it for more 2x as much to some kid whose getting his first car... same with 240sx. And you gotta know how to talk down the price for more profit.
