I love all the ads that include "ran fine when it was put away X years ago." I mean, sure, that might be true, but could you not bother to go turn it over to see if it STILL runs before posting the ad, or should I take that as a sign?

When I was in high school turbo Dodges were everywhere. Then Civics eventually became the go-to car to modify. Now the only turbo Dodge I've seen listed in the last month or so is a $400 automatic Caravan which hasn't been driven in six years.

Unless that thing is absolutely immaculate, 5500 is way too much for a first-gen RX7.

Also, on an unrelated note, I don't care what anyone says, I think the taillights on the SA22's are atrocious.

Howabout this weird one? I've seen it for sale a couple of miles from me and didn't know so many were made. It's definitely no pretty, expecially compared to the El Caminos of the era, but it's certainly something to see in person.

Yes, it would be very bad unless it has a poo poo ton of under bracing which is a pain in the rear end to deal with when doing any work under the car. But my guess is that since it was a test mule they just hacked the top off and that's it.

Not an M540i, those are canadian only, extremely limited and numbered. That is 540i M-sport.

Still, a nice example of a fairly rare car in good condition. Price is still high IMO, I think it'll end up selling for 10-12.

What e34's actually get the shadowline trim? Or was it an option? I keep seeing M5s and 540 Msports and stuff without them when I thought it was standard but I guess not. And yeah that price is dumb as hell considering what a regular 540 + the remaining ~$12k could do.
