I wouldn't call it a "deal" but kinda cool to see one for sale here.
But an $85000 Supra? WOW, sign me up |

And yes most of the examples I posted are good deals save for the fake R35 ad that has since been flagged. Just because you can't afford or aren't getting a steal price doesn't make these bad bargains. That Supra has over $130,000 invested. The car is literally an Japanese icon. The MKIV's like the NSX will never depreciate unless they are rebuilts/high km/bagged on
It's all relative. If I was a working professional making 6 figures which a lot of vancouverites are making then these cars are not only affordable but a great buy. People have this misconception that mods don't increase value but hate to break it to you THEY DO! You renovate a house with upgraded marble bathroom/hardwood floors/fancy kitchens the house is worth more. Same analogy.

I hate to break it to you, but a working professional making 6 figures wouldn't buy any of those cars... They are hardly a good deal. They might not necessarily be a bad deal, but they're certainly not a good deal (ie can sell them easily for a higher price)

This is rough but a deal because the expensive stages in the resto are finished.
freshly rebuilt motor; rebuilt suspension; straight, rustless body - $7500. 1987 GMC Pickup
This is a straight up steal.
older resto; original paint; lightly modified - $6000. http://vancouver.en.craigslist.ca/rd...473222202.html

I think we need to re-evaluate what a "good buy" consists of. Some sort of parameters so posters don't blindly post random cars from CL that they think are "cool"

I would rather post vehicles that are cool than only good buys. I don't think anyone is reading this thread with buying cars to buy and flip in mind, anyway.

I'm just going to state my opinion that I think long beds are ugly and they'll never be worth anything close to what a short bed is so why pour money in one.
