I always kind of liked these, small, simple, reliable, great gas mileage. This one looks to be in good shape, and, based on the survival rate of these things, there is not much to go wrong.

The Mystique is a really stupid concept, but I think the car itself is kind of cool. I liked the Nautica Villager, but we were poor landies and just got a LS or whatever the next level down was.
Rogue One is the best new generation Star Wars movie by far, and holds up as such without the Star Wars hype. The one major tie in to the franchise was also perfectly timed placed.
Yet when asked about the most beautiful car of all time he said nothing about Chargers and went all E-type. I forgive everything, in fact, there is nothing to forgive...
I didn’t look real closely at the car, agree with your assessment of value on stock examples. There are a lot out there, seems like the decent to nice ones start around $10k or so.
So you guys always say someone else’s mods don’t add value. This one is priced around market correct if stock, has more power, doesn’t look butchered. The Mercedes chassis should handle the extra ponies ok. If gauges and everything work I will nice price it (even though I would prefer a nice, stock, 560SL or early car…
Maybe the "Toyota Built EV" Edition?
Looks Like a fine American Automobile to me!
I made the general comment that 70s special editions that were generally just graphics packages and wheels are the worst of the breed, yours is a good example.
Answer Number 2, pretty much any special edition Indy Pace Car, especially from the 70s and 80s. People paid extra for this stuff.
Pretty much any early seventies to early eighties domestic special edition car. The couldn’t figure out how to make any extra horsepower (without failing emissions) so they just added gaudy graphics
Ready for the crusher? Not saying it is a $7500 car, but no rust, clean interior, even if the motor was shot would be worth a grand or more for a swap or restoration project.
Agreed, fellow rust belt resident, old and rust free definitely means more here than there.
I think he is looking at the number of seats and fun to drive/performance factor as the chief criteria, as the CRX is included in the party and it is FWD. Presumably the Del Sol and CR-Z are left out because Honda left out the sport in those cars.
People drove these into the ground as reliable economical daily drivers, or modified the hell out of them as the tiny little sports cars they were. To see one like this is rare, they have a pretty good following, and rightfully so.
Reading the timeline and events of that day just makes me literally feel ill. “Don’t mess with Texas” unless you shooting at grade school kids, then we will spot you an hour and a half.
I always kinda like the little FWD Charger. Totally different thing than the earlier cars, but kind of cool as its own thing. As I recall the Shelby GLH made like 180 hp when American V-8s (in bigger cars) were pushing out maybe 200-210.
I think you hit the nail on the head as to why the NCis oth admired and villified. The NA and NB were both modernized, reliable, smooth but still sharp handling versions of the old British sports cars like the Elan and MGB. The people who wanted that were a bit off put by the Miata becoming more its own thing. The…
Friend's dad bought a new '76 or '77 Cutlass back in the day. I thought it was a pretty good looking car that drove much better than many of the pieces of crap they were selling in those days. It was kind I f one of the last hurrahs of Detroit doing what Detroit did best.
See them all over the place here in the States too. Feels like they out number Imprezas 2-3 to 1.
