I was on the fence about this one. Yes it is an old, complicated German luxury car with appreciable miles, but it is also a V-8 AWD wagon in good shape with good maintenance records.

Contrary to what Jalopnik says, 90s cars are better than our current options, I am all in, Nice Price. These guys (dealer) are within the craigslist local search, and they have some cool old cars from time to time. They don’t give them away though.

NO, I will expand on that a little, I think this belongs in that special category, it is not priced too high, it is not a thing that you should buy.  No dice at any price.

Yesterday poll is neck and neck, last chance to vote and change history, Rob’s early call on the election is fake news. #Save the Paseo

I was back and forth on this one, the price looked ok-ish for a well maintained, cosmetically clean Z3 2.8. Then I read the miles, and thought No Dice. Then I looked at the ad.

Trunk spot welds seems to mostly be an issue on the later M cars and maybe the early Ms and 3.0s, I don't think the 2.8 stresses them too much, but who knows over time?

Somewhere in the early 90s Toyota came out with the Paseo, Mazda the MX3, and Nissan the little NX. All tiny little coupes that would be laughed out of modern showrooms. The Mazda and Nissan were the most interesting to enthusiasts as the Mazda could be had with a tiny V-6 and the NX could be had with the 2.0 16 valve…

The joy of driving a manual car is dulled quite a bit by a FWD platform, for me anyway. Between the miles and the price I can’t quite get there with this wagon, but it is an enticing package.

So the bathroom door handles are dirtier than the toilets because the toilets are cleaned...huh?, I assume they are cleaned between flights, never seen them cleaned regularly between uses.

My first house had a driveway running immediately next to the neighbors, with our houses immediately next to the driveway on both sides. Garages towards the back of the lots.  You had to move a lot of snow to scoop that driveway.  I sympathize. 

I hate the cold, the worst thing about driving in the winter is getting in a cold car. Then you read all the articles about how warming your car up is not necessary and also adds to emissions. All the crap they put on modern cars I don’t give a shit about, put a good instant on heater, I would pay for that option. How…

There are still stickers on the tires--in 2011, I am guessing it is still wearing those little used, but aged out meats.

Quite sure this is a scam, all pictures dated 2011 and ad copy says "You won't be able to find this car anywhere" I'm out

I have a an old British sports car that is unsurprisingly creaky, and an 1988 Porsche 924S which is surprisingly creaky.  Compared to those cars... my frame of reference may be different than yours🙃

I love the nineties. They had figured out electronic engine controls and cars were making power again. Not present day power but a nice steady progression, cars were reliable and smooth and a fast car could idle and cruise down the road well, a good handling car didn’t have to rattle your fillings.

I was with you til the end.  I owned one too, wouldn't mind having a nice one (if they still exist) today.  Not fast by today's standards, but wouldn't call it slow.  Where does creaky come from? Mine felt solid as a rock up to the 120,000 miles or so I sold it at.

I get some Aston Martin vibe from the front at least, thing is you can get a real one from about the same price used, so once again, why?

I don’t know specifics, but generally speaking, Volvos of this era are pretty stout, and run for hundreds or thousands and sometimes millions of miles, I think the rear axle is probably ok with a few extra ponies.

The car to its left looks like an Alfa GTV

If you are so proud of your fucked with Volvo that you think it can bring unfucked with Volvo money, maybe you could be bothered to pull it out of the shop and take some decent pictures to show its beauty (or fuckery depending on how you view it) in all its glory. No Dice with a baseball bat
