Don’t really care for the color of the top or seat inserts, but the rest looks fine. I am ot sure if the car is fully depreciated out, but probably pretty close. Nice price.

Highway 2 going Northwest out of central Nebraska is a great road. There are places where you don't see a sign of civilization for miles (other than the road, of course). Back when I was young and foolish set some land personal land speed records up there.
We just went on a driving trip to New England. Though similar of course, I thought Vermont was surprisingly better than New Hampshire.
Yes, it is a little daunting when you look up at a huge vehicle next to you and realize it is a Corolla. I have had smaller cars than a TR3 and motorcycles. The experience is so immersive when you are doing it (for me anyway) you don’t think about safety much at the time you are doing it, more before and after. Defini…
Triumph TR3 with bad cosmetics and good mechanicals can be had for this price. I have never owned one, but several long term acquaintances are also long term owners. The low cut door, lack of any sound proofing and direct mechanical feel never fail to put a smile on your face as a driver or passenger.
It is a manual, the de-contented SE with roll up windows and sports suspension.
It was rainy, cold and windy except for today, so I was catching up with yard work and washed the Porsche. Not that there aren’t nicer cars out there, but didn’t get a chance to see one.
Pinto wagon with portholes in the back, the body and paint are all factory, kind of the prototype "shaggin wagon"
Friend in college had one. We called it the "moon buggy".
Doesn’t help that the Taurus styling, considered advanced when it came out, looks just plain dumpy today.
Gorgeous car that would be a fun weekend toy you could enjoy for years. My favorite generation of Miata. I just like the looks better than the later generations, and more oomph than first generation. I thought it seemed a little high but after reading description, low miles and condition seems like a good deal. Nice…
I think they weighed about as much as a Miata, 2400 pounds or, I am sure that helped them feel peppy. I looked at one several years ago, certainly not fancy, but was fun.
The difference is the front is in your face scary, the rear is anonymous modern era overstyled too many lines going too many ways (because otherwise the raised profile of modern vehicles, even passenger cars, would be big boring slabs) that will just blend in with the crowd.
Sorry, but absolutely not. From the side profile once you get past the first foot of front end or so it looks like a typical three box sedan. Not beautiful, but simple and almost refreshing in this day and age. The front end is not only an abomination, it does not match the rest of the car and looks like is was…
I don't know if this one would have gotten to "nice price" but certainly a playa until I saw the interior pics. From the outside looks like a classy build, from the inside a vape-mobile--all out, no dice.
This car looks like a very nice package, would consider purchasing it. I would need to know about the rebuilt title, what caused it, how it was fixed. Even spending play money not enough data.
Don't live in or near a big city. Don't have any auto show stories, didn't really occur to me that other people other than press folks would.
We would get mid 30s in our manual Fit easily, 36-38 mpg if I tried, don’t think the extra weight would hurt much on the highway. Not fast, but pepper enough in town, I liked snipping through the gears. Have owned a lot of manual cars, never would have thought of the Fit as one of the worst.
I had a 54 Austin Healey 100, the early cars had a four speed manual from a sedan, but first was too low, so they just blocked it off. Synchros on the rest of the gears, but they were more of a suggestion than an actual thing, shift two three, press just right on the lever and it will slide into gear without much…
