Oh I see, how about the integra instead of the rsx? Does the integra perform similarly to the rsx?

I'd say that csx is the fancier civic, more than the rsx.

Brown bro's had 3 RS's for $47,500 with the winters and car cover etc and plus the Costco discount and wtv. Not really a good buy. But you know his story checks out since the 2 diaper boxes can be seen in the garage lol

Quoted from his ad: "The car including all taxes etc cost me just over $63k. I'm looking for the best offer over 56k."

Sooooo....anyone that buys that car from him for $56K, will pay $6,720 in taxes when they register it, bringing the cost of the car to $62,720...pretty much $63K! So while it's true, he might have been a sucker and paid $63K for it, if that's the case then he's not making money but the government IS, collecting tax twice to the tune of $13.5K on a car with 650 km on it.

I think I'd rather go to BB Ford (or any other dealer) and buy a new one for $53K tax in and be the first registered owner. Why would another buyer overpay because he overpayed? It's likely that all the buyers that had to have a Focus RS at any price have bought, and now most dealers are selling them at MSRP without any additional dealer markups.

what an idiot!
He lives in the shittiest of shitholes in Langley. Super high density, yet he blows $63+k of his kid's milk money on the most expensive Focus you can buy. If this doesn't scream "fiscal irresponsibility", then nothing does.

The conversation went like this.

guy: "honey, I bought a new Ford"
wife: "ok, it's a Focus. It shouldn't be that expensive, we can work through this"
guy: "It was $63k"
wife: ""
guy: "It's okay hun, Nu Stream realty has a buyer who wants to give us $750k for our shitty townhouse. We'll be okay."

someone a few pages back was asking about a basic reliable 1st car that is cheap to maintain and isn't old:
2006 Yaris. $3600 OBO - $3600 (Langley)
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6113954367.html


must sell today... not sure if it's any good because i see a big fender gap between the passenger door/front fender:
2001 Honda Civic 5 spd, Mint Condition $1950 obo must sell today - $1950 (fleetwood)

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6114026259.html


for those who don't think ford is bringing back the gt500:
2012 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 - $49995 (Vancouver)
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/ctd/6105915592.html


"used" with 35 kms on the odo:
2016 FORD SHELBY GT350 TRACK PACKAGE *ONE OWNER*NO ACCIDENTS*LOW KM* - $68000 (VANCOUVER)
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/ctd/6097369317.html


too scared to know what the ADM is on this. looks to be the same dealer as the one above (coastal ford downtown?):
2017 Shelby Mustang GT350R
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/ctd/6078804189.html


trailer queen?:
1966 Shelby Cobra Resto Rod - $85000
https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6076260593.html

Sorry not eligible for collectors.

"Vehicle eligibility

​15 years or older, and
A manufacturer that owns the "trademark" or "make" of that vehicle has ceased manufacturing vehicles of any kind for at least the last five years.​"

GM owns the Pontiac trademark and they have kept producing vehicles for the last five years.

it's been there for awhile now. i see it whenever i pass by their lot going home from work. but it does seem to move to a different spot from time to time so at least it's not sitting there with a dead battery slowly sinking into the ground...

It does look clean but IMHO...

I didn't find my OEM hardtop to be all that great to live with. It didn't reduce noise THAT much. Certainly didn't reduce squeaks and flex, and it's a bitch to store when it's not on the car.

Dealers argue that you get the turbo looks without the headache. The opposite is true, you're still plagued with IMS issues. The turbo motor is arguably less prone to issues.

there's no such thing as vert tax on Porsches - the equiv coupes sell for more. This one is a lotta scratch when you can buy a local C4S coupe for 10k less or a C2 cab for half the money.

As for the dealer, I haven't bought from CofC but found them agreeable to deal with when I was looking for a cayman last year.

The 996 C4s cab is priced 10k higher than it will probably sell for.

Low miles, looks to be in decent shape.. but it's a cab, doesn't have sport seats, and has the ugly 5 spoke wheels.

You can get a coupe 996 C4s 6MT w/ sport seats for around 40K with reasonably low miles.. I would sooner opt for that.

TL;DR it's $4000. Steep yes but it looks damn clean and is pure classic JDM.
