unusual buy: regal GS with 9k km.... a bit pricey, but if closer to $15k, will be a nice pick up.

That price strikes me as too high despite the low KMs, but just chiming in to say I had a Regal GS as a rental to drive from Van-Calg-Van one summer and definitely have a soft spot for it because of that trip...

It came up a few pages back when I was selling mine that was similar... someone mentioned it's being flipped for at least $1,500 more than it was bought for.

Anyone else gotten completely harassed by Applewood Performance in Langley? Called them on one of their cars available without blocking my number and different salesmen have been calling me non stop for the past 3 days even though I told them Im not interested and to stop calling me. Also getting those spam texts from them as well. Super annoying.

EvoFire 11-17-2021 10:00 AM

The word Applewood means bad things to me.

Hondaracer 11-17-2021 11:40 AM

Start leaving bad google reviews saying you’re being hounded for simply enquiring on a vehicle etc

Its simple, get a few friends to leave them 1 star reviews, stating exactly that
Then go sign up all their phone numbers to all free seminars, e books, giveaways, marketing websites

01 Elise, rhd, 32k$

Too bad it comes with the weakest engine, almost miata slow

punkwax 11-17-2021 04:35 PM

^I’m not a big guy and those are so difficult to get into/out of. Still cool af though.

68style 11-17-2021 05:19 PM

Drove the Rover powered one in England at Silverstone F1 track many years ago... it was an absolute delight regardless of it's drivetrain... much better than a Miata (sorry Miata owners) at this particular purpose.

Decidedly MUCH less livable than a Miata on the street however.

I don't remember exactly, something like $400... also got to drive a 993 Porsche and a Ferrari 355 + go for a hot lap with a Formula 2 driver... but it was in 2007.

*edit they still offer packages and the price hasn't increased all that much actually: https://www.silverstone.co.uk/drive/...car-experience

twitchyzero 11-18-2021 07:38 AM

that's pretty good pricing compared to vegas one that aren't big FIA circuits

you have me intrigued.

Starting at 289 pounds puts it on track with Vegas, albeit Vegas and exotics racing etc is no silverstone

I would think Vegas has a better selection of cars though, for about $1000 I did 8 laps in a Aventador 4 in a GTR, and then got 2 laps with a pro drifter in a C6 Z06

68style 11-18-2021 01:18 PM

Way too classy for any of us riffians except maybe a couple of the people in the epresso machine thread, but seems like a lot of car for less than new BR-Z money :notbad:

You're talking about Hehe, right? :D

How would one even get to Kelowna with the flooding and the Coq being all busted up? :lol

I think the current premise would be you fly there, buy it and then live in it. Could be worse?

I think it depends on what you're trying to do.
I used Vegas to plan out future car aspirations and see what was worth the hype

- 981 GTS
- 991 GT3 Cup
- Avendator S
- Performante
- 458 Challenge

My Porsche plans are mostly cancelled. Rallying friends and saving money to split a 458/Performante in the future.

Hondaracer 11-18-2021 03:19 PM

Yea next time back I’ll be getting into a 458 and either Turbo S or a GT3

The best I could probably hope for ever owning is that C6 Z06 though lol
