maybe when it came out circa 2000 most of the direct competitors were still 1.6-1.8 displacement?

It was reasonably quick for its era but that motor was so gritty and noisy. Going down I5 would be such an ordeal between the short gearing and road noise.

They've all rusted out. Those rear wheel wheels were rust magnets.

Qmx323 05-02-2024 09:23 AM

DEFINITELY not a good buy price wise, but wow. A few touch ups away from being a museum piece.

STOCK - CLEAN, LOCAL - AE86 - 5MT - 298KM

68style 05-02-2024 09:25 AM

Not good buy Greg... or good guy Greg...

Impressive condition for the mileage though.

Barely running Metro with glued in plexiglass window and detroyed fender?

How is that worth 6 bills... let alone $1k?! I'd rather walk or ride a bicycle.

^god and i thought Maserati depreciation is bad.

snowfarmer 05-03-2024 06:00 AM

I love it! 10/10 that is the budget baller post of the year.

You would never financially recover from that purchase, a mid-00's VAG W12 engine with 105,000km LOL. That is a hand grenade with the pin pulled out. The only redeeming factor might be the scrap value of the parts when that thing inevitably fails.

Is the engine that bad? Or is just the rest of the car that's bad?

The Producer 05-03-2024 07:24 AM


these guys are fun

68style 05-03-2024 07:40 AM

It's surely a good sign when your used Bentley is missing all 4 of its centre caps lol

I heard the W12 is more reliable than the Audi V8 but if it breaks.... hope you have deep pockets!

JDMDreams 05-03-2024 03:13 PM

I don't think the engine is unreliable, it's the bits around it that is garbage like plastic pipes etc, and you need engine out to get to those bits, it's like Audi v10. So it's one of those giant jobs that you do everything while you're in there kinda thing.

Seems like a good buy, AWD, 500+ km range

68style 05-04-2024 08:18 AM

You'd have to be missing a chromosome to dump $45k on a dead brand's EV... these cars are bricks without constant updates and significant warranty coverage.

whitev70r 05-04-2024 08:38 AM

Fisker = this gen's Saab.

Qmx323 05-04-2024 10:32 PM
