More dollars, sure. Not this much more. And not on a car with 300k miles. I just don’t know what the end goal would be with this purchase. It’s too expensive for a driver’s car. It’s got too many miles and work done to be a collectors item. 

Some people pay extra to get inside Satan’s Colon.

Same boat.  If it had been south of $10k, I could have been convinced to NP, but at $13,5k it’s just too high, especially given the economy and mileage.  Clearly a labor of love by the seller.

It’d be cool if you could download the information to overlay on a track video, but yeah, otherwise it’s pointless and busy. 

Crucially, the 184 ft-lbs comes on at 3,700 rpm (where the torque dip was), vs the 156 ft-lbs of before coming on at 6,400 rpm.

Adding a turbo would put it too close to the 2.0 litre Supra in power and performance, which I suspect Toyota don’t want. Even though Subaru does not have the same issue maybe there is a clause in the JV agreement that means Subaru cannot do a more powerful version than Toyota offer.

I’m walking into a Toyota dealer today and putting down a deposit for a red one with every option, and that sweet 6-speed automatic.

Look, I love older BMWs up to and including the e46 and e39 series, and I know e30s are on the way up, but for an incomplete project to be asking $13K and change even with a nice baseline is fucking insanity.

It’s still a 1987 325is with 300k miles on it no matter how much repairs and modifications you do to it.

Adjustment isn’t always an option. In my 06 Trailblazer, the entire seatbelt mechanism is inside of the seat itself, and there is zero adjustment anywhere on it. That car probably didn’t do well in the IIHS tests for a reason.

If reincarnation is real, I want to be a Tiddy Bear in my next life.

I guess Nissan has been stuck in year 2010 for the past 20 years, because the R34 was 10 years ahead of its time and their current lineup is 10 years behind the time.

Pretty much every single car regardless of brand has variable valve tech (VTEC) by now, albeit under different names.

I WANT CARWINGS IN MY CAR!!!!

... yo.

This’ll go to someone like me who thought these were the pinnacle of rad in their salad days. Then they became embarassing when we grew up a bit and thought about it. Then most of them turned into bombed out fright-pigs.

Honestly Fisher Price has much better build quality.

I understand there’s an enthusiast community out there keeping prices inflated on these. And I fully acknowledge this is one of the nicest examples out there. But it’s still what it is underneath: ugly, cheap interior, and poorly built.
