Very nice. Those share many mechanical and drivetrain components with the USDM Paseo (or is it Tercel), correct?

Sold for just under $10k? That price is more reasonable than I would have expected.

An AE86 Corolla GT-S to replace the one I had to sell ten years ago to pay for school.

The ad is showing $3400 when I just checked it a minute ago. Definitely makes things a bit more interesting.

Not sure offhand, but maybe it has something to do with the moulding process?

Welcome to the club!

Austin is definitely more bike friendly as a whole than Houston, so I’d agree. There was a recent push here for more dedicated bike lanes, but I think that movement has fizzled out for the most part.

Yes, because I live in Houston (where it’s hot), and have to wear a suit most days. I’d rather not spend 25-30 minutes baking in the sun because I decided to walk to work. I think my coworkers would prefer that I avoid that too.

Thank you. Some of these people (looking at you, rabob_128 :p ) just don’t get it. Houston is hot as hell and not very pedestrian friendly, for the most part. Just yesterday, I saw a person on a road bike nearly get run over by someone in an old 1990s Explorer at West Alabama and Montrose. The bike actually ended up…

Whoa dude, judge much? Also:

I live in Houston, it’s hotter than hell for most of the year.

True, this would be ideal for my urban 1.5 mile commute where I rarely exceed 30 MPH.

Good point, momentarily forgot Miatas have manual operated convertible roofs.

Yes, once you take into account the folding mechanism, motors, etc.

Right? You can’t tell me that absolutely none of the members of the current administration have watched Sicario, or that one Fast and the Furious with the tunnel scene (whichever one it was, I lost count).

And for the record, I did say “fairly basic” and not “direct swap” or some similar term. ;)

Your pedantry is appreciated. I only bought my 1987 GV a year or so ago, so I admittedly do not know what all is involved in the process, and have only spoken to people anecdotally about it.

That’s exactly it. “Craigslist savant” is quite a 180 from “hurr durr let’s go huntin’ with my rye full.”
