darn you beating me to the Mother, Juggs, & Speed reference...

If Mother, Juggs, and Speed wouldn't drive it, I won't either. CP from me. You whippersnappers might want to look up M, J, & S.

the VW diesel is pretty much bulletproof. Too bad the rest of the stuff bolted to the engine isn't.

Sentra over a 3? Despite Mazda uglying up the 3 a couple years ago, damn that's a toughie. I'd guess if a sentra came in at about 10k, with all the bells and whistles (less the stupid CVT) I'd take it over a 3.

I'm as big a wagon fan as most around here, but this is a classic case of "I don't have the money to do it right and this is costing more than I thought it would, so I'll sell it and let someone else suffer my mistakes."

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. For an 80's car, I think it looks quite nice. Even back when this car was new, I thought it was pretty cool looking.

the best car to do the deed in? whatever car I happen to be driving. I don't have that much game so I have to be ready in whatever I'm driving when opportunity strikes.

The interior? Pure 80's glory, and folks said only a DeLorean can be a time machine :). I also worried about the touch screen, but for 3k? Can't beat that price with a stick. As for the nose heavy handling, not everything can be perfect. Besides from that era Buick wasn't a canyon carving brand anyway. Every car is a…

What's not to like?

The head says CP. This thing is so impractical for camping. It's so unsafe in the event of a crash (whiplash alert—look at those front seats). What kind of brakes does this thing have? discs? (I hope) drums? (eeeeg) I have no idea.

If you don't have talent, attention whoring is the only way to stay on top. Talented people simply perform and let the rest sort itself out.

Washington plates on the back. Oregon on the front. Listed for sale in Colorado. Not liking that. Finish the job (whatever that means), price it at 3,500 and then we'll talk.

Me too.

Marsha Blackburn is an idiot. She was an idiot when I met her back in 1992. She is an idiot now. The difference is her sorry ass moved to a different district where it could get elected.

If my wife would let me, I'd cash my retirement out for one. Alas, if I did that, I'd have to live in the thing. Wait, that might not be bad...

OEM stick in the right. ..

I got an OEM stick for the right hand. Left hand needs to steer...

exactly. I don't care about lowered lap times or getting to 60 in 3.2 (as opposed to 3.3) seconds. My right hand needs a stick in its hand, and it'll find one somewhere.

I don't live in CA (my dad does so I'm vaguely aware of how their registration laws work) but I'd bet if it was a barn find that had been registered in CA, the buyer would be on the hook to get the registration current. Typically with private party deals, the ad usually says if registration and smog is current. Buyers…

don't we all wish. Nope, stock miata, but its top goes up faster than the others.
