That’s about the right price for one in excellent condition, which this one isn’t, so No Dice. Anyone that is looking for something to ride and not just as a collector’s item would be better served buying the modern version of this, a Monkey 125.   Lightly used ones go for less than they’re asking for this relic,…

“It would end up in a ditch the picosecond it began to rain.”

Yes, that happened all the time back in the ‘80s, I remember it well.
Put some modern tires on it though, and you’ll be fine.

or six like the Alfa 159

The ad needs more pictures. For me, this car’s just not desirable enough to pull nearly $8K, but for the right weirdo, it could be a nice price if the engine bay and mechanicals are in a condition comparable to the rest of the car.  No dice for me, and most other people too I imagine.

Especially egregious on a car enthusiast website.  

There’s a dent in the front left quarter panel. Other than that it looks pretty good. Lexus are usually robust mechanically. When things do go wrong it’s usually the electronics. As an owner of a 2007 Lexus ES350, I have or had issues with the window controls, cruise control, and audio system. Nothing that keeps the…

If you think this was max boomer, you must have missed the 2003 Ford Thunderbird 007 edition.

You’re not completely wrong, but I think Honda had just as many entries in this slideshow

The 5MT pushed it into Nice Price for me, but just barely. Need to know what light is glowing on the instrument cluster before committing.  Other than that it looks pretty good.

I’m only seeing two pedals. And the steering column looks to have a PRNDL indicator panel on top of it.  Are we sure this is a 3-speed manual?

When I saw what this was and the price, I almost went straight to the bottom to vote no dice. But then I read the article, and saw what great condition this is in. Considering any decent car is $4K-$5K these days, I’m going to give this a nice price for what it is.  But I agree with another poster here that said a…

Sorry, it’s $11 for the 3-piece chicken strips combo.  Not sure about the price of bone in, it might be as you said.

My local Popeye’s is over $11 for that 3-piece combo.

He said “100 odd private jets flying to Davos...”. So it would be 333,300 people. Does that look better?

I voted nice price on this, but I wouldn’t want it.  And not just because it has too many doors.  The automatic transmission is a deal breaker for me.

My first thought upon seeing that steering wheel was “Checker Marathon”

Disc camera, holy shit I forgot those existed once upon a time.

If overseas higher education is so great, why are there so many foreign students lining up to go to colleges and universities in the U.S., price be damned?

“This sandwich is heavy on the bread, which would be great if the bread were any good.”

Thank you. Poor bread quality is my biggest problem with fast food sandwiches. Burger King is particularly bad in this respect, especially on their Whopper Jr. and other small burgers, where the beef patty is about half the size of…

I bought one of these new in 1989 (not the blue max version, just a plain Cougar LS in Red with grey interior). Although underpowered, it was a comfortable place to be and handled fine for what it was. I kept the car for 17 years. Transmission went out under warranty, had Ford dealer rebuild it twice. Third time I…
