Look at Honda (Civic or older Accord) or Toyota, they tend to have good reliability for a lot of miles. You really need to go to a used lot and sit in the car, kick the tires, look under the hood, drive it... etc. Make sure you* like it.
 
For $2,000 it's hard to get yourself a sporty coupes car. There are two options that came off the top of my head that might meet what you're looking for but I'm not sure, it may be a little over $2,000.

Your options are:

Mitsubishi Eclipse
Acura Integra

These cars are easy/cheap to maintain, good gas mileage, easy to repair. The Acura Integra would be a lot more reliable than the Mitsubish Eclipse. The Integra is a fun project car as well, if you feel like hooking it up eventually.
