Dunno why but I’ve always liked these oddball models released as the prestige Japanese brands were getting up and running. This and an Acura Vigor (teal five speed please) would be a heck of a two car garage. NP.

I had one of these for a while. Pre-COVID, with this much mileage, I’d say a $4k car. In today’s market, it’s close, but the work done to get the AWD functional pushes it over to NP.

Yeah, not the first time BaT has let a sketchy auction stay live for way too long. I’m too lazy to go digging for examples, but there have been a couple with questionable VINs and/or sellers who will just outright lie about the vehicle’s history in the comments. And neglecting to include seller-provided info about…

Well it is the small Chrysler.

This! I don’t what’s up with all these dour ND people today. This POS Escort is the most pure jalop vehicle I’ve seen on here in ages and it deserves to be celebrated.

DC is divided into four compass segments. SE = South East.

“According to the ad, of the 133,000 total kilometers this Audi has covered, 87,504 of those were via the car’s original motor. It apparently shit the bed at that point and was replaced with a donor unit that had only 47K on it at the time.”

Read between the lines of the article…then have a tech savvy friend build you a bot that daily runs a couple of thousand slightly randomized Carvana searches for Fiestas similar to yours. Presto! Instant value!

Just that it’s been listed unsold for 24 days is a major red flag all by itself. With the stick, these are rare enough that I’m sure at least a few local enthusiasts have already taken a look and all passed. And it’s certainly near the bottom price-wise for a running driving car in this crazy market, so it’d also…

That CL ad is something else. Holy Christ what a money pit.

Caught it before the trolls show up

Very nice! I have a v70 t5m with similar mods. Hard to imagine a better car for bombing across the country.

Great Christmas gift for the new driver in your house, especially if you’re trying really really hard to discourage premarital sex. It’s a true embarrassment to be seen in, but it’s a NP.

Cop’s like nancy peloci be lettin air out of my tires again

They actually don’t measure it in dollars. At that level of wealth it’s all measured in gallons of purebred orphans’ blood.

Big Paul Ryan loves Rage Against the Machine energy

First of all, he’s in NJ so he’s not hard up for dealer choices. Secondly a loyal customer is worth ~100k over time to a dealership. Yes, $100k, not $10k. Third, this guy has trashed this dealership online and no doubt in person to all of his friends too. It’s not just about one single guy and one single transaction.…

100% this. How much future business did they flush down the toilet in order to get +/-$10k upfront? It’s insane, yet it happens all the time.

There’s snow on the ground in one of the pics. So probably taken late March at the most recent?
