I briefly had an ’84 240 sedan, which I got free with 190K on the clock. It was my first stick, and when I got it the knob was absent, so I improvised with a ball of foam and some tape until I sourced a replacement.

Even if it’s secretly a grenade, you can probably get your money’s worth of rolling around in it before it blows. NP.

I clicked ND, but I’m on the fence. Is there any kind of collector market for these, now or in the future? That would be the deciding factor.

Skillful job at making it livable for the modern world, but also heavily personalized. What would it take to undo the Jack Sparrow treatment? I’m torn but leaning sad ND.

Somwhere, perhaps, there is the buyer willing to part with $40K to realize the dream of owning this. A fanatical Renault-phile or some multimillionaire who casually accumulates automotive oddities. I doubt this person will be lurking on Portland Craigslist. ND.

This is in amazing shape, I’m glad it exists, but in the end, your living space still consists of a pickup bed that you’re sharing with a lot of stuff. If it were a true overlander that exchanges go-anywhere capability for a few creature comforts, I guess that would be OK. But it’s not that in its current state. ND.

This conversion is definitely more attractive than what came from the factory, even with the tent-like top raised. But the condition is just OK, and $13K is more than OK money. ND.

I feel like this is a YMMV situation. There are horror stories, and there are 300k survivors. My first Pilot was an ’07, and some people would have told me I had a ticking time bomb. It was the most trouble-free vehicle I ever owned, right up until it got totaled at 186K.

Having owned a couple of Pilots, easy NP. It’s old enough that even in Acura guise, it doesn’t have a lot of fragile gadgetry to break. But at that mileage, if it’s been maintained as the seller claims, it’s just getting warmed up.

This is entry-level collector money, but I’m not sure I see the value here. You could go other directions, from restomod to parting it out, but you’d want to pay less upfront. ND.

The mods suggest it’s been rode hard, which is what it’s made for, so good on the seller. But you can’t have your fun and suspend the laws of depreciation. ND.

I certainly won’t call it the best ever, but my ’97 Caravan was great while it lasted. The quintessential family hauler without the compromises of an SUV, and surprisingly durable. I parted with it at 170K based on the question that often seals the fate of my older vehicles: How much am I willing to spend to get it…

If you really want one but you’re on a budget, this may be as good as it gets. And my, that is one ’80s dash transported a decade back in time. NP.

If only that were true. Alas, that’s how it came from the factory.

That is among the ugliest faces ever put on a production car. A lazy attempt to differentiate it from whatever sibling had the directionals below the headlights. Even if it weren’t so ugly, too much money for someone else’s very personal expression of style. ND.

That’s...the wrong color. No design is perfect, but this hue brings out all the flaws. It doesn’t have to be red, but if I were in a position to be shopping Ferraris, this would not be it. Honestly, I have no idea if it’s a fair price, but given the questions surrounding this one, I’m going ND.

At this price it had better be absolutely pristine. Otherwise it’s a car to enjoy ironically or put to work as a stuff-hauling beater, and it’s not worth $12.5K for either of those roles.

I’m on the fence with this one, as are the voters, apparently. I went ND, mainly for the odo issue, but this is one rare bird. I could be swayed the other way.

Too late to change my vote. I was going to say, this is not for me for many reasons, but it shouldn’t be too hard to get $31K for one with a clean title, especially on the West Coast. But salvage? Hard no.

Say what you will about BMW, I never thought of them as playing the contrived exclusivity game. If more people had wanted these, they would have made more. I mean, cool car, but...ND.
