I've been looking for another car for weeks but haven't found anything, I've always been interested in DSM's and heard both good and bad things.

I've come to the conclusion that if you use good parts and don't get stupid, there not that bad....I could be wrong.

Anyways I'm wondering if I can pick up a good condition close to stock as possible AWD Turbo DSM without 150K Miles for under $3500?

Seems like it could be a fun car, and they are decent in the snow if you have to drive them.

Btw, if anyone knows of one let me know - There's only stipulation, it has to be a stick.

very doubtful

Maybe a FWD Turbo

Good condition FWD 4g36's go for around 2-3k alone from my experience (assuming they ARE in good condition)

Depends on if you want 1st or 2nd gen. 1st gen then yes you can, I got mine for under 3500 with 90k on the almost flawless body and 15 miles on the rebuilt engine. It needed some forgotten maintenance as most will but they are out there. Keep your eyes on the swap sheet (just saw one in there not to long ago, dont know if its still there).

3 years ago I sold a mint virgin GSX for $3500 and people thought it went for too much. I never should have sold it.

Its all a high and miss deal, if you wanna fix it up alittle possibally, just look around. I found my tastefully modded 2g for 5,000. That was when alot of them were going in the 7500 to 9000 range. But theres always a deal out there, exsepcaially on shells too.
