Default looking for a beater car...suggestions please

i'm looking for something to replace the MR2....it's a good car and everything, but i need something that seats 4 and an automatic.

i'm willing to spend $5k....so far i've been thinking about 96+ civics, ~95-98 corollas, or something else that's reliable above 100k miles.

ideas?

i love G2's....but i'd feel terrible beating on it. it would also be a waste to get it w/an auto :happysad:
