Craigslist thread - I know what I got edition

Or you thought it was going to take $500 and a weekend and ended up selling your house to finish it.

>The only reason you sell a swap after you spent the time and money on the swap is because either you fucked up and can't un fuck it or it is extremely underwhelming.
Or they just get bored after playing with the same toy for 5 years. An LS3 swapped Fiero would hardly be underwhelming.

>An LS3 swapped Fiero would hardly be underwhelming.
Depends. A tired ls3, problems with traction and handling, you never got the cooling right
Etc etc.

A good swap would be quite exciting, but there isn't much reason to believe a good job was done.

>Fiero
>25k

I can't even..

Cross posting from another thread.
What a fuckin deal.

>aftermarket AC

are these people retarded?

Well, it's a MKIV TT, so, yeah, you'd expect it to be auto.
Who buys a manual Supra?

>21,000
>this is not a twin turbo
Implying the clean TT would even come close to the boomer spergeLord price this faggot is asking

Threads like this make me wonder what's going to become of these "God Machines." Obliviously their current owners won't be able to sell them at these outrageous prices and be damned if they will pull their head out of their boomer ass long enough to research what the value of their precious shitbox actually is. Will we be seeing a massive influx of rotting sports cars hit the market when boomers finally start to kick the bucket? I highly doubt their children, Generation Y, will want anything to do with their parent's dilapidated shitbox sitting in the garage; the majority will probably practically pay to have some autist get it /out/ so the family house can be put up for sale

>extremely underwhelming.

Anyone think this is worth it? I don't think I'll be able to talk them down very far

I only wish I knew how much it would cost to fix the problem with it not starting.
The only thing that worries me is that its starting to happen to my 98.

>1200 American federal reserve notes

nah a supra (or any car with limited numbers left) will command a price greater than it's worth.

it's the free market at work. i'm not agreeing with the boomers, a lot of them are delusional but there are some cars that are worth hundreds of thousands simply because someone will pay, because they want it so bad and it's one of the only kind left.

you see it often with old muscle cars and you'll begin to see it with skylines and supras now as they were famous 90's cars.

yea, the skyline GTR's are already rapidly rising in price.

Some are easy 100 grand depending on which one and it's only going to climb from here on out.

I can't wait for jap import supras to be legal in the US just to see the market for these crash

the US is the only place where supras go for such stupid money.
GT-Rs were always going to be valuable, Supras don't have that much fanaticism

>head turner
>$7000

Yeah. If you want people to turn their heads and laugh at what a poorfag you is.

Man I am terrible with money. And I'm about to make a terrible decision.

The '70 for sure. Less plastic, less smog bullshit. For two grand more it's a lot better than the other two even if all three are overpriced.

WRXs command a stupid high price, it doesn't look that out of place. I wouldn't buy it though.

people who enjoy cars do

learn to use your memes properly faggot. Do you even know what a boomer is?

>columbus.craigslist.org/cto/5738788437.html

You would be hard pressed to find any WRX for under 5 grand.

If you have 45 thousand dollars cash, why waste your money on a 1997 Toyota? 45 grand is a down payment on a Ferrari. 45 grand buys you a brand new BMW.

This asshole will never sell his supra, not for that price. His wife will be stuck with hit, selling it for pennies on the dollar 15 years after he's dead because no one wanted it.

How about 20k for a incomplete shell? If this isn't boomer taxed, idk what is.

houston.craigslist.org/cto/5742404362.html

I really hope that's a typo and they meant $2,000. Because even then that's pretty high.

Also would love to hear how they're positive it's a boss 302. It's probably a damn base 6 cyl car.

Even if it is a matching 302 car shell, that doesn't fucking mean much unless you got the goddamn original engine too.

I'm just outside of St. Paul so it'd be a drive to get down there, one and a half to two hours, so would it even be worth it to go that far out of my way to check it out?
I've heard 240s are pretty much bulletproof and it's definitely within my budget.

It was only supposed to be an afternoon.

Honestly I'm surprised the bubble hasn't burst yet.

There are so many more cars out there that you could put 45k into and it be shit loads faster.

Does anybody here actually know what a baby boomer is or does everyone just hate people who are 40 and older? The 80s and 90s sports cars probably aren't owned by boomers.

I thought it was a little high for a 10 year old SUV...

Prepaired for rice

I think they just added a 0 by mistake.
Exactly 1k over kbb sounds about where it should be for an asking price

What the fuck is wrong with that drivers seat? It looks like some fat fuck's been gangster leanin in it for 20 years

Doesn't look like a bad deal to me if it runs as good as it looks

not cl but same shit 1/2

2/2

My dad just bought me this as my second car he got the price down to $9300 and it had a ding in the passenger door was it a good price?

>pontiac anything
lmao

I payed 4400 for a wrx with a ej257 and a 16g turbo, upgraded fuels lines and fuel pump, etc

That's about right, more of a dealer price though. you have no idea what top trim 4x4 diesels are worth.

Now finding a buyer however...

...

Your anecdotal evidence is cool. Here is my local CL. Ill even limit the year to 2007.

And here is just bugeyes (up to 2003). Its still crazy.

It's a fine car. Enjoy it.

Yeah, I mean, I know they did make an extended cab version but I'm pretty sure the dually is custom

Tasteful modifications

>dually

For what purpose? Aren't duallys for trucks that tow major weight?

>with 186500mi

...

Well you'll be waiting for a while...
Rhd supras are far more common.
Roughly 2500 supras sold per year they were available in the u.s.
A rhd supra isn't a LHD supra, and the prices reflect this.
In Canada rhd 6 speed TT supras are 25-30k
R32 gtrs are only about 20-25k now because the u.s can import them.

I bet rhd supra prices will go up also.

That truck was probably 50-80k new.

takes a special kind of person to turn two cars into zero cars.

Please tell me this isn't MA

Should I? First car, looking for something with potential that won't kill me in stock form.

A metro with only 40k miles? But why?

Why is he selling it for so high?
da fuck

it is a shitbox, but damn that is a clean example. it's not that ridiculous for an excellent condition, low-mile, out of production vehicle that gets 50 mpg and has a large cult following. idk
