If the vehicle doesn't hit the max budget, I wouldn't mind putting a bit of cash into the vehicle for upgrades to brakes/tires/suspension. Automatic or manual transmissions - doesn't matter which one.

If it makes any difference, I live around the Burnaby/Coquitlam mountain area where the incline and declines are steep

Open to all suggestions, thanks in advance
i like this:

1995 Subaru Impreza Outback rs2.5 (lots of new parts) - $5000 (Arbutus and King Edward) 1995 Subaru Impreza Outback rs2.5 (lots of new parts)



has great engine swap project potential during the warm months.
