It wasn’t so long ago that $3k could buy you a very clean Miata but not anymore.

A reluctant no dice. Five years ago I bought one of these for $1000 sight unseen and drive it home from Wyoming in January. Similar condition, but the A/C worked and the heater didn’t. Would have traded the A/C for the heater on the drive home.
The plaid indeed.
This one’s tugging on me a bit. I want to adopt it like a stray kitten that showed up in the yard.
But still ‘ago’.
Runs, drives, and passes MA inspection for $3k?
You’re not getting a Porsche badge on a technically running car any cheaper. NP because someone will buy it just to get the Keychain. Probably not me though. If I had to get the economy Porsche I’d go for the 914.
Then a couple of laps on the rulebook men come to their pits and say no you cant drive like that.The rear window also needs to come out!
To this day i never learned why that is, but anyways they made short work of it!
Ive always wondered if this gave him an unfair advantage- less wind resistance
Just use lighter water, duh.
If it makes one more affordable that would be nice.
Buying this company and having manufacturers tags is a good way to drive any car on the street. Import late model cars from Europe and Japan for “benchmarking.”
Jalopnik crowdsourced, crowed owned? WILL BUILD OUR OWN CAR COMPANY!
I had the chance to see the orange one in person at the Detroit show about a decade ago. It stopped me in my tracks and made me ask “what is that?” in a good way. I couldn’t believe it was made here in Michigan. The pictures don’t do it justice, shame it never really hit mass production.
Fuuuuuuuuuuck, I reeeeally wish I had the resources to buy this company.
That thing is WAY better looking than the C8 Corvette.
It might seem like a better deal if any mention of a warehouse or actual real estate weren’t suspiciously missing from the ad.
To be fair to Falcon Motorsports the car was light and fast. 680hp and 2700 lbs is a good combo to die.. I mean go fast quickly. And there was a twin turbo version that made 1000+HP
I skipped right to the “insult Elon Musk on twitter” step and all I got was a bunch of sweaty nerds calling me names. When can I expect to make money?
Jalop group-buy?
Buy the company, convert the one car left to EV, negotiate for SPAC sale, retire with billions.
