This seems like a nice coupe with a good, long-term owner. It's a sunroof-delete and an original Canadian-market car. It's mostly stock outisde of a couple bolt-ons. The price translates to about $43k USD which seems a little optimistic.

CL is doing super weird things w mileage lately. It's like it's doing some kind of miles to km conversion in a bunch of ads. Not sure why this is happening so often.

If I buy a set of Michelin cc2 or defenders for my compact ecobox, it cost less than what your one tire cost jfc

I know what you mean, I've seen it too... however in this case I was just making fun of how high the price was

Don't know what to think, it is pretty pristine, low mileage but I guess if you are a collector. 78 Civic with just 90K kms, manual with all of 52hp, $15,300.

$30k. 1994 RX7 LHD. Current owner bought it in 1998. Local car, mostly garage kept.
Haven't seen one priced this low for years.

saw this last week - really surprised it hasn't sold.

it's tired, but it's certainly saveable. I'd rather have this than any condition RHD car.

Why?

It doesn't take long to get used to RHD. I hardly even think about it anymore.

Only issue is overtaking on 2 lane roads.

weird donk fail but OK

all I said was I wouldn't buy a RHD car if the same model was available in LHD. there are several reasons why.

cool car - I hope somebody here buys it. i was merely surprised that it lasted more than a few hours. this is an absolute halo car for under 30 grand? cheap.

A little bit more reasonable than previous one asking for like close to $70K, this one is $57.5K.
2023 Toyota Corolla GR ... says auto in the listing but must be wrong, it has to be manual.

I believe the Circuit referenced in the ad is sold, so just the Core left.

Do you mean you cannot afford a 7th RX8 or you cannot afford an RX7?

(kidding kidding)

That's still a $10k markup.

One of my friends reached out to the dealer when both were available yesterday - was told both the Core and Circuit were available at MSRP plus the 2 accessories + dealer fees. The price in the ad is for the Circuit. Forgot to ask if a trade is required.

My friend couldn't make it to the dealer on time for the circuit - someone did a spot delivery on that unit yesterday afternoon.

its probably because the bloody interest rates are at like 8.9% and nobody in the right mind is gonna lease/finance these. That leaves a tiny section of the buying public that can / will throw 60k cash down for a corolla
