I must admit I like the look of this old thing. If restored properly she’s a beauty ! So much road presence. Paint it in greyhound livery and you got yourself a bona fide American classic.

NOT a good buy but ... more of a rare nostalgic buy category. These are hard to value .. not even sure what a good buy price would be, $20K?

2006 Subaru WRX STI, best looking year, 144K kms, $26500

may as well - good buys, on anything interesting are few and far between these days

winter is still a good time to score a bike though. big miles on this one, but the bodywork looks good.

nostalgia for me - my brother and my buddy bought brand new 2000 R1's. I had my R6 at the time.

Holy fak, that is a good deal. The used bike market is still totally effed, good deals are few and far between. Stock turn signals and a stock plate mount and that thing could be collector plated this year.

That’s really clean. The light blue is perfect too. Too bad it ain’t a stick. Otherwise it’ll be the ultimate Camry

For 1/3rd the price of a self-driving upgrade to your Tesla 3 you can drive the epitome of cockroach automobilia... a car that's been known to put people to sleep just touching the hood.

I'm curious about the missing cigarette lighter and double air fresheners though haha

The 92-96 Camry is peak Camry IMHO. Quality materials that still hold up today and bulletproof reliability. Surprisingly nimble as well, considering it's a family sedan.

We had the 4-cylinder variant for years and it never let us down.

The 4cylinders are cockroaches, or worse. The V6's need some care.

Is the wiring harness replacement a bit sus? I know Mercs had issues with the biodegradable wiring harness, but not Lexus... Could be a sign of an previous rat infestation?

Lexus ES300 - $4,200

2000 lexus es300
condition: good
cylinders: 6 cylinders
drive: fwd
fuel: gas
odometer: 115260
paint color: custom
size: full-size
title status: clean
transmission: automatic
type: sedan

Great running car
Second owner, first owner was little old lady for the first 21 years, only sold it after she couldn't drive anymore
No accidents, engine runs strong. Wiring harness replaced at Lexus on Terminal last year (have receipts.)
No longer need a second car

^thats probably it. she never drove it, rats chewed everything up. Dang thing only has 115,000kms for a 23 year old car. 2 more years and you can slap collectors plate on it.

These things are the same as Tofu's camry. indestructible

The *only* problem with those cars is the valve seals on the V6 engine... that's literally it.

If it sat for a long time and you're interested in the car, when you go check it out make sure the engine is cold so you cold start it and get someone to watch for a puff of blue out the back on startup... if so that's valve seals.

It's not the end of the world or a super expensive repair especially if you do it yourself, but it's something to be aware of on this engine.

LOL 245k.
That's full retard. That person deserves 15k. Was it a fucking taxi cab?
Wait one says 24.5 one says 245k. Difference between worst deal and good buy

In that case, pretty awesome. I wish we could have got an R, but we really needed the extra room of the golf wagon. It's so goddamn boring to drive though.
