Lastly, if you are either a mechanic or someone in that league of under-the-hood skills you can always try the auto yard. Because these cars are sometimes used for unsanctioned racing you can usually find imports at the junkyard. "Pick a part" type auto parts businesses tend to work with salvage and insurance companies to get choice wrecks, and while you probably wouldn't go there to get an RX-7 door panel, they are perfect spots to find interior RX-7 parts and engine parts. used auto parts that come from "pick a part" yards are usually pretty cheap because you are doing the finding and removing of the part all by yourself. Again, this is recommended only if you really know what you're doing. A mechanic who works with cars every day can spot a useful part from a throw away, can you?
Set a budget -- What can you afford to pay for a used car? If you have $5,000 cash, then your budget is limited to cars valued for that amount or less.

Determine a monthly payment and seek financing through your credit union or bank.
Replacing spark plugs is not difficult, if they are located in a place on your engine block where you have enough room to reach them with a socket wrench.
