Per the second photo, this appears to be “Z” enthusiast owned. At least that betters the chances of the current owner having an above-average knowledge of these cars! NP

The geometry on that era of MTB is very similar to semi-modern gravel bikes. (I say “semi” because this category bike is evolving by the second). If you ever wanted to explore drop-bar adventure biking, this would be a cool way to go, especially with the soft-tail (the gravel bike resurgence is bringing this idea back…
Having depressingly watched prices on Porsche Boxsters and 911's over the past couple of years, this is on the high side for an automatic. It’s clean, but when that 3rd pedal is missing, these cars take a hit (you can get some sweet deals on Automatic NA/NB Miatas if anyone is interested!) Unless, of course, the…
I’m a child of the eighties, and thinking back, if you asked any kid what the vehicular symbol of wealth was, limo would be a top 5 or top 10 response. Think eighties the Don, or Scrooge McDuck.
But if you DID need a limo, is this a Nice Price or No Dice?
Short of going into business as a car service, I don’t really see the point of buying a Limo for personal use. If I could afford to keep someone on my staff just to drive me around, I’m guessing I’d be able to afford a Rolls and all the bespoke crap that comes with it. If I’m not driving, who cares about how the car…
Pretty sure this is a business model poor old Gil would get caught up in.
Yeah, aside from getting threatened by someone for not immediately accepting their lowball price for an AC unit, things move fast on FB Marketplace (who knew that selling a window unit brought out all the fun folks - after a few of these, I pulled the ad and gave it to a friend lol.)
Thank you. I feel like if everyone says this enough, we can get back to the good old days of people not responding to emails sent through Craigslist.
When you think about it, getting $7k trade in on a 20 year old car ain’t a bad deal, especially if you’re like me and dread dealing with craigslist/fb marketplace bottom feeders. That said, if you put it up for $10k, it’d be gone in a week. If you’re not in a rush, I’ve seen similar for $15k.
Every other sub-$10k Boxster I’ve seen on the market in the past year (I might have it as one of my regular searches) is absolutely trashed. Torn seats, faded paint, rust (seriously, Porsches don’t rust). This one looks extremely well maintained and priced by someone who thinks a used Porsche is just a used car (as…
Counterpoint: When I bought my new washer/dryer, more people then expected asked me all sorts of details about what I got, and started geeking out on my new LG appliances. To which I replied, “Sure?”
Exactly. I wonder how many people freaking out are even old enough to grow up with the Integra back in the 80's and 90's. For the most part, it was a pretty bland economy car. I think the only Integra these kids know are from F&F lore (ie, the Type R).
This - this is how you present a car for sale. NP
I agree. I also think that the fixation of an EV having to reliably drive across the country before it can be feasible is a very bad way to get American’s turned onto EVs and will continue to promote range anxiety as a major factor of NOT getting an electric car.
I’ve always wanted one of these. I’m not a coupe person, and definitely not a big-coupe person. But this car is on my bucket list nonetheless. I don’t even want to drive the boat - I’ll probably just stare at it for a weekend (from 20 feet away - these have some pretty bad angles close up), get bored, and move it on…
Yeah, just gotta get it somewhere where folks aren’t a bunch of pansies afraid to get their fingers dirty.
If this think could make it to Vermont, you could flip it for 5-figures in a day.
Are those panels “off” to anyone else? Or am I just forgetting how bad fit/finish used to be on these econoboxes back in the day. That first picture’s front fender looks like a different color and is misaligned with the hood and bumper. Same pic, and the passenger door doesn’t seem to line up with the rear fender.
I used to buy into the social media blame game too. Then I watched a documentary on Woodstock 99, did some math and realized that the Kid Rock/Korn/Limp Bizcut generation is now 30/40-something (the demographic that seems to contain all these asshats). That train ride started long before the smartphone was ever a thing…
