Probably because it's a Japanese auto action car rated 3/C and the $8500 cost was just for the car, add $3K for shipping from Japan.

It really is just the dumbest thing. It's an actual kit that I've seen and I have no loving idea why they chose MN12s for the base. Not that it's a bad car, mind you. I had one and I loved it. But to try to make the middle third of that car work with the front and back thirds of post-war sedans? What the gently caress?

Why has no one mentioned the Studemino?  The former co-owner of the shop I worked at just had to do one of these for some loving reason. Purple exterior. Trade work-for-work with a friend that does upholstery got him a pleather purple and white interior that looked like something a drug dealer would own, complete with purple dingleberries around the windshield. Had to put a custom radiator in it too because the nose is so drat pinched inside. Joe Mama fucked around with this message at 00:55 on May 19, 2016 |

Driving on the highway with something in the bed is fun. Especially when it's windy. It's shaped like a boat for fucks sake. He tried to sell it a Good Guys multiple times. I guess no one wanted to spend the $12k he was asking.

I remember wanting that the last time it was up for sale. It's totally gorgeous, probably actually worth the money although I could fart together a 240 + 5.0 for much less.

I love it when people describe and list how much all the useless stuff they've put on the car cost them as a way to prove what the car is worth. Who cares? If you do custom poo poo like that, you should expect it to be lost money, better to save the original parts, put them back on, and take what custom parts you can off it and sell those parts. I pretty much never see custom cars sell here, either they have some kind of fantasy land price, or they are so cheap that no one wants them anyway because they are poo poo. I do however love it when people list recent maintenance done to the car in the ad.

There's a fairly clean looking Honda CRX that popped up on the side of the road on my way to work that is for sale for $3500. Is it worth it to anyone for me to snap a few pics and put them up here?

Here are pics of that CRX. Other than the busted fender car looked pretty clean. Guy let me crank it up and it idled smooth if a little high in the rpms. Said it was his son-in-law's car and english was not his first language so he couldn't tell me a whole lot. Car is located on Hwy 20 between Azalea Dr and Russell Rd in near Lawrenceville for any Georgia goons.

I thought about posting the pics to ImportAtlanta to get the guy more exposure. He seems pretty nice. But then I realized if I do he'll probably get ripped off as someone would be likely to come around and just take it off the side of the road.  Car has been there for a week now.
