Going off of your price range, you're not gonna be able to get anything new, obvioulsy. Don't go too old though. Mine's a '95 and I've already had the transmission rebuilt once, and it's acting up again. I've gotten a blown head gasket, (sure that's probably also because of the way it's being driven) but I would suggest going '99 and up if you can. They changed a little bit, and I think anything older would end up giving up some problems.
