I considered it a unique feature every time something would fail on my ‘97 Jetta VR6. I was all like, “My car is helping me study for my digital-electronics class by sacrificing its own window regulators. What a unique feature...”

But nobody who buys this new will still have it in 5 years. The fools who buy them used get to deal with those issues.

I'm looking forward to Tavarish telling everyone that buying this used is a great idea.

I’m gonna need a bigger garage

Considering that I see non running rusty hunks of shit listed for 2500... I lost my train of thought. I’m sorry. Np, all day, every day and twice on Sunday.

It almost seems too cheap. Clean bajas generally go for $5-7k. This seems oddly palatable for $3800.

These types of car designs are never coming back, right? Is that for “Safety”, or for the techno-crap crammed into the cars in the past decade and a half? Even a 95-96 Camry (flame suit on) looks nice compared to todays’ Camry. Oh.. I wish they bring the old style back!

Inside is a rally-proven engine. And that’s all we’re going to tell you about it. Look, w-i-d-e door openings! STOP ASKING ABOUT THE ENGINE.

What you lack is historical perspective. Sorry if I am a bit thin skinned but if I hear one more person say “my 2015 (fill in the blank)V6 is faster” I will likely have to go punch my wife in the face.

I vote 1980s, and I can explain why with one word and one letter:

Fuel Injected, 16 Valve, Dual Overhead Cams, 4 into 2 into 1 header, 4.11:1 gear all in a production Chevy circa 1976.

Golden age of tech really, that’s never been better, but pull up at the lights in a P85D beside a 1964 Aston Martin, and there’s about as much doubt to the choice of which is coolest as there is to which will get off the line the fastest.

This? This comment? Ugh.

I had two. Ditto for the most unreliable car, ever.

Man, you guys hate PT Cruisers the way Hillary hates “feelin’ the Bern.”

4k USD isn’t exactly an easy NP for a ‘88 Prelude. It’s just too much man, too much...

This is me with my 90 SI that I bought for 3400 dollars in 1999. Gave it to my younger sister in 02, and my dad ended up trading it for an old Duster IIRC. I loved that car, although it was actually the most unreliable car I’ve ever owned

Dude, the rear brake locking is probably the rubber line collapsing in on itself. It allows pressure past there, but then can’t release. It’s a very cheap fix, just replace the short rubber lines to the wheels.

Dear Fiat, make this a coupe and I will be your man servant for life
