Fix Tranny or Buy New (Used) Car? - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

1998 Sunfire. 195,000 Miles. Its always done me right, but apparently the transmission needs fixed. Not a huge issue, but it must be fixed, and the labor is going to be killer. So, spend $800 on fixing a car with 195,000 miles that seems pretty good other than that, or trade it in and buy something 2004 or newer with less than 35k miles, assuming they'll give my sorry ass a loan?

I was thinking of getting something like a Hyundai Elantra, or a Chevy Cobalt.
