Good eye. Mine failed me.

very rare, very cool car.

probably slid off the road and damaged something thats a discontinued nismo part.

underscore 10-12-2019 11:31 AM

^ or maybe stolen?

TjAlmeida 10-12-2019 11:36 AM

Back in 2015 a nismo 350z was probably still 20-25k ish? Figure something fairly decent would have to happen to write it off? Maybe not, never dealt with a rebuilt vehicle

Also keep in mind if the payout minus salvage is less than the cost to fix they'll write it off. So expensive or rare parts increase the salvage value and increase cost to fix. So even more likely to be written off.

2017 VW Golf Wagon, 4Motion, 21K kms, auto, $17K. VW isn't going to make this model anymore, rare compact wagon with 4motion, MQB platform, 1.8T with 170 hp, should be good on gas.

Not that rare to find a 4motion auto sportwagen. One with a manual is going to be hard to find. The trendline cloth seats are hot garbage.

Spotted a red 6MT alltrack around June. Canada's getting the base mk8 golf - fingers crossed the wagon comes too.

Most likely is, doesn't even look like a Vancouver neighbourhood either

Alltracks are definitely nice but they list for >$30K.

Did you hear? I don't think it will be easy to find a 4motion wagon in the future, there are only a few listed on CL now.

Well I kinda figured Number 3 Road is the Kingsway equivalent to car dealerships. :lawl:

I'm in no rush for a mid life crisis car haha

realistic pricing on GDB finally......... want so bad. but getting married... :okay:

68style 10-15-2019 10:52 AM

^ 245k is a lot on one of these tho... you’re probably doing yourself a favour

tofu1413 10-15-2019 10:58 AM

Don't see the higher k's being a bad thing.

Something would have blown up already by this point and dealt with.

theres another silver one with a "hesitation" and a leaky steering rack for around 10k too.


I personally don't shy away from high k BMWs either- they wouldve needed quite a bit of work by previous owners to get to that k (and to still be running).

But that's just me.

keifun 10-15-2019 02:00 PM

2004 STi are less desirable than the 2005 model.

2004 has the old interior center console
and the big one are the 5x100 wheels

Traum 10-15-2019 02:02 PM

The 5x100 wheel thing should no longer be a limitation since FRS are on that bolt pattern as well, and there is a ton of aftermarket support for the FRS sizes now.

The silver one is my buddies car. Motivated to sell. When he bought it in 2012 it inspired me to buy one too and I ended up with a '07 Limited. Even though it has a few issues, he has had a lot of work done to the car over the years. He would have receipts.

But java black pearl

whitev70r 10-15-2019 02:33 PM

Subaru Impreza WRX/STI 06-07 is the best looking generation! ... hands down.

Like this one .. prefer sedan but not bad for a hatch. $8900 for a 187K kms one.
