If you want to do a swap, there are plentiful rolling chassis around to be had for $1-2k with way better cosmetic condition than anything running under $8k. I’d highly recommend looking into the 2ar-fe swap as well, it’s extremely well sorted including AC. Either way you go, a guy named Marc has a company called…

The US market got pretty much all the colors, and I don’t even think this green is original. There’s black, white, cobalt blue, solar yellow, forest green(maybe not the official name), paradise blue, absolutely red, two different silvers, and phantom grey pearl. With a choice of, depending on the color, either black…

Shhhh, David! I’ve been looking for the perfect example since last February. Don’t cause a stampede! Although Covid has been pretty effective at keeping me from being able to buy one.

The 2AR-FE swap could reasonably be done for $8-10k all in. But that’s assuming you have the setup to do everything except a bit of the exhaust yourself after buying all the parts. That’s about how much unswapped 2004 or 2005 MR2 Spyders in very good condition and less than 100k miles, or 2zz swapped 2000 or 2001s are…

If you’re thinking of doing a swap, just get yourself a rolling chassis and start from there. The early years had a combination of problems that killed the engines, so there are a decent number of great condition rollers to be found for $1-2k. Just saw one the other day with a nice coilover setup. If you do end up…

If it was around $20k and I was in the market for a track car that also made me look like a try-hard, it might be a nice price.

Everything about him is creepy. Definitely a bad dude. Doesn’t change the fact that Carol Baskin was a villain too. Pretty much everyone except PTSD libertarian dude and the guy who lost his arm did at least some pretty questionable stuff. It’s telling that I can’t remember any of their names.

My only suggestion is that if you can get a super-low 0-2% APR loan with very little down, just put as little down as possible. Keep the cash! Then you’ll have it available in an emergency, and the extra loan principal won’t be costing you much at all.

Post it on BaT with a $20k reserve and the seller might make it to $28k or even above! As a straight up asking price in any other marketplace it’s too high to hope to find that buyer. In the frenzy of the bids though...

I inquired about a manual G70 before Covid hit. At the dealer near my house, I was told they had leased out the single one they got for ~$300 a month. I guess I just asked a bit too late.

Dysgraphia/dyslexia in Chinese or Japanese has gotta be a tough row to hoe. Especially because learning disabilities are still nearly ignored in both those countries.

Clean versus Salvage title is total bullshit. Relatively new or high value vehicle? Even a major accident won’t hit the 80% threshold, and you’re in the clear. Older vehicle, even if it is actually desirable and sells for a decent amount the “actual cash value” could be low enough to end up branded with a damaged…

Just subscribe to the NYT and get their cooking app. It’s wonderful and they actually test the recipes. There are still some duds, but far fewer than the general web. The problem with many food blogs is that all they care about are the views, so they may not even cook the recipe. All they need to do is pick a fun…

How would a consumer go about finding those vehicles specifically? Just look for CPOs with lower than typical miles and hope they qualify for the incentives?

In this price range, it’s a little unfair to compare cross-country pricing. Not that I’m arguing it isn’t high for NC as I don’t know the market. I just want to point out that a difference of less than $2k might be worth it to many when considering the logistics of flying and driving a car home or buying sight unseen…

I thought those tax credits were refundable anyway?

This just sold a couple weeks ago. Maybe I should have jumped on it!

$20k on Cars and Bids says that a couple grand more than $14k on a private sale is a possibility. Maybe a bit of a stretch but $20k is nowhere near double.

Send him an email if you actually have help to offer!

Was it a Chrysler? I recently had that same problem, fucking awful on a 2006 Chrysler 300. It would often struggle to crank back over after killing too. The shop wanted $900 for a new PCM and $260 to install and program it. I bought a used one for $100 from an eBay seller who programmed it before mailing it. Once I…
