Honestly, I would just have it wrapped and call it a day.
If that is indeed a paint job and not a wrap, ND.
The aqua colored flames(?) are not really doing it for me. But considering what you can get for $6000 these days, the miles, and interior space, and manual transmission make this look like a good deal as a practical commuter, funky fun car, or transport for your side gig of floral delivery or whatever. Easy nice…
This could be an ideal buy for someone looking for an inexpensive work/transport vehicle to haul things around from place to place. Treat it like a work vehicle, don’t worry about the paint (taste is subjective anyway) and just accept whatever dings come along without stressing about it. Plenty of space if someone…
I’m currently on the East coast. If I were near Sacramento, I’d be already on my way to check it out with check/cash/wire etc... in hand. I’ve got grandkids coming up on driving age and they’re properly indoctrinated in weird courtesy of papa.
Or someone who doesn’t drive like me... I prefer to be invisible in my boxy excusemepardonmecomingthrough Element. Oxidized black it is.
For a DJ or someone who owns a surf shop: NP.
Wanted one of these when cash for clunkers was going on. At the time my POS Dodge Ram was to nice to sacrifice and my DD Geo Metro was getting 40+ MPG with no AC doing 80 miles a day commute. Ended up with an xB instead
I took a look at the title of this one and assumed I was going to hate whatever garish decals some joker had thrown on there. I was wrong. I kinda like this design. Heck, I kinda love it. And I kinda want it.
Holy cow. Relatively low miles, a six-speed and what the heck money in 2023 dollars. A CVT would have been an immediate no but the manual is very appealing.
Funnily enough, the story I wrote on driving it... was for Jalopnik:
Drove one years ago and absolutely loved it. Went online to check overseas prices and they were surprisingly affordable then... but the ones for sale here are priced in the same range as this one now, which is a bummer.
I’m with you. I’d generally ND something of this ilk; Slush box, age, concern with unobtanium parts BUT this car is gorgeous (would def swap wheels which would be key to making it perfect). Irrational, or not, NP, not as an ‘investment’, but as a driver. This is assuming it drove as well as the better 90s Japanese…
Completely irrational and impulsive NP.
I just checked, and you can save it if you open it in a new tab.
I need this gif, it expresses things I have difficulty putting into words.
Thanks! The pandemic pushed back my completion by two years, so it’s a huge relief to be finished. Now to find a job...
Congrats on finishing up your doctoral program!!!!
I graded the finale and series out pretty much the same way. Sub-par. Needed another pass or two of script revisions to flesh out characters, fill in plot holes, fix pacing, and contextualize things for viewers who didn’t watch the animated series.
