NP - This a prime example of a downright practical beater. Talk the seller down to $2k (or less) and ride that sucker into the ground!

I think that place also sold Bricklins back in the day.
Two strategies I have employed with moderate success:
Awesome shots! Even when we got 10mpg, it was great going out on the roads! As far as that gold Firebird goes, 2020 car colors are getting WORSE! The bland, military grays and greens now coming out look like bad MAACO jobs, WTF!!!
As a former E36 owner, I was disappointed that BMW chose a design for the next genreation that looks so much like the Civic of that era. Every time I see one, my gut reaction is “homely Civic with kidney grilles stuck on.” I’m sorry to disappoint you, but this car is not my cuppa.
ND Beat up and just plain weird. This model was the least appealing to the eyes, imho. A Bimmer with a roof box (WTF???) is kinda like a Chevy Spark with a spoiler. Some things are just not meant to go together.
ND - This is an awesome replacement for an Kustom Kamo Hummer with underglow lights and throbbing / booming sound system. It also could serve when the super-lower Suubie with wing and gray plasticote stubs its nose on a crossing bump. Let’s face it - this car just screams “Arrogant Asshole (w large wallet)“
ND ! Sooooo.... you want me to pay a premium price and then pay all the new bills when that Wankel’s seals start leaking again? Ummm yeah, it’s purty and all, but that baby is high maintenance!

You’re being too kind Dave, it has no original lines, whatsoever. It mimics the looks of a 5 year old Tahoe. Nothing “Grand” here to see, keep on moving folks.
“ prominemce “ should be “provenance”.
NO DICE -
NP - nice way to pick up this baby. Not my cuppa, but if you want one, this is the way to enjoy one after the 1st owner took the brunt of depreciation.
ND for sure. It’s sad, just sad, and you will be too if you pay the asking price. Instead of so many pix of the sad, sad interior, it would have been helpful to provide some upskirts so that the bottom and steering component condition could be exposed. This is likely to become one of those projects that just never…
YES I GIVE A SHIT! Don’t be an asshole! Many jalopniks live just for the “WTF is he gonna do next to top this shitbox?” with Dave. He actually teaches us a lot of useful tips in discussing how he approaches his challenges. If nothing else we follow for the Schadenfreude!
ND for sure. Given what the seller is asking, there’s a crack pipe involved somewhere.
I thinks it’s more about the new meth.
