2011 Toyota Matrix S AWD - $11,430, 21,856KM.

Yay or nay? The colour is eye-searing though.

the listings report shows a lot of cosmetic issues... and it's the first time i've seen repo flag driveshafts for problems? busted cv's at this mileage? worse?

Maybe the repo guy didn't notice it's AWD and just lifted the front and went.

A while back ago there was an A3 posted and someone on here got it for around $6700 (forgot the deets though). Here is a very reasonably priced one, from an Audi dealer yet, Capilano. They knocked $2K off original asking price, now listed at $5900! Assuming no major claim or accident, helluva deal to be had here.

2006 A3, black, DSG, 184K kms, Sportback

2006 Audi A3 2.0T Sportback (Auto Direct Shift) - North Vancouver $5,900 | autoTRADER.ca

^ Not bad from a dealer. Although it looks like the base model. Non-metallic paint option, no dual moonroof, no sport wheels.

i did a search under the seller's phone number and came across this:

West Coast Rotary ? View topic - Part out:Red s5 flush mount headlights

maybe someone here from the RX7 community knows this car/seller?

I think I would prefer the stock black M3 at Forward Auto.

I posted that E36 M3 a few pages back. It's in Victoria

^^ these are all over priced RIGHT NOW. Things are changing, but not this quick. Speculators gonna speculate

IMHO to be "good buys" they'd have to be:

E36 could be 15k (I still don't know why he's advertising it as a track car - part out the $$ bits) The laguna you could make an argument for 22-24k (subframe is done). The silver should be 20-21k ish (and would be in private hands I think, that GI auto centre is always way overpriced)

Looking that way, E30 M3 and Z3 M shoes are there already plus more, Z4M is on its way to the moon, E46 is getting there for rarer models, E9x is holding steady right now but looking like it'll go up eventually too

2009 Civic SI Sedan, manual, white, 100K kms, $10,800, no accident, Honda serviced, with a set of snows. That's pretty good price if everything checks out.
