Now this one is newer (model year), has the same maintenance work done, an extra 2nd pair of wheels, a new set of un-installed suspension, but is still only asking for the same $20k?
Since I got tricked last time, this one seems really fishy to me...  |

Snohomish washington or North van, miles check out, might be a legit ad...
EDIT: It's an auto in the ad. Nevermind.

The style is definitely not my cup of tea, but it does look like the owner went the all-out and no-expense-spared route: 1972 DATSUN 240Z - FRESHLY RESTORED HIGH PERF RACE/ STREET MINT 
Somebody here gotta have a thing for these, right?

The 240z itself is extremely clean, but you'd need to tear it apart to undo the horrible styling choices he's made. Horrible styling choices include yellow and blue wiring looms, interior panels, engine parts, random LED's, and mental ward pillow room rollcage padding.
There's no price because any sane person would close the tab if it were listed.
JNC did a piece on the 510 a long time ago, he cut the original fucking fenders up and flared them :| http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/2008...one-ebay-sale/

That poor datsun. If the engine he's selling wasn't anodized blue and yellow, I think it would be a decent buy too. On the positive side, he's having a garage sale for all his stuff starting tonight. I bought an engine plate (between tranny and engine) off him and gave him the $100 he wanted. He got me good, but I needed it quick and it was my ony option. Haha

I have a '11 and never had any real issues with it until recently when I took it in for a re-flash and it started developing a shudder from shifts 1 to 2. Took it in to the dealership and had the tsb done on the car, drives very smooth now, like how it was before the shudder occurred. | How many k are on it now? What concerned me was reading reports of people getting their car fixed, just to have the issue come back 500-5000 miles later.

Short notice but it sounds like I'll have to bomb to Surrey tomorrow, while we're down I figure we should look for a new car for le gf. So if you guys can help me find any good ones to check out or bad ones to avoid it would be much appreciated (same goes for good/bad dealers, I know nothing about GVRD dealers). Looking for a Saturn Astra (4/5 door) or Toyota Matrix (XR or XRS), auto, under 150k, under $9k, any colour but light grey/silver.
We're liking the look of this one atm, pretty open to input 2006 Toyota Matrix XR for $8,800 in MAPLE RIDGE | autoTRADER.ca
As a side note, I've never spent this much on a car before, any suggestions for finding a good place for a PPI or checking for liens etc?

Been eyeing this one a bit, just not sure if I want a 4wd or not. And I am undecided if I want an early model car so you get the dual row (terminology?) IMS bearing. Don't really care for the overpriced bucket seats, but having the Sparco mounts would be cool. And it being a rebuild would definitely help your negotiation out, and it has low km's. http://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/cto/4935337145.html
