this nsx keeps coming back up for sale year after year. i vaguely recall someone here having seen it in person and reporting that it is pretty scary in the flesh.

i was told by someone a running mgb is like a random game of chance. when it happens to be running, that is the moment to sell asap.

70s MGB are the ugly years. Big rubber bumpers and raised ride height
1963 to 1968 are the ones to look out for.

Backdating a rubber bumper MGB is relatively easy. A weekend project for the mechanically inept unless you want the earlier turn signals...then you need early fenders. How to convert MG Midget rubber bumper to chrome bumper
They are know for being unreliable simple because people think they are cheap cars and care for them accordingly. Once sorted, and maintained, they are quite reliable. Electrical issues, rust and worn out suspension/drivetrain are usually usually biggest culprits. For $1500, if well inspected, that could be be great deal for someone.

15k for the mini is a steal in my eyes.
You might be able to buy more car for the money, but you certainly can't build one. That thing would be a riot, and oh so very unique!

Pet peeve Quote:
All original bone stock
...
Modifications include HID's, Lowering suspension, pioneer double din touch screen deck, aftermarket speakers, aftermarket alarm system
| Not all original bone stock, so don't say it is up front then contradict yourself later.

I think it's called Byzanz Orange, a very rare colour, especially on an E36 M3.
