I emailed this guy about this Celica and asked him if there was any rust. He replied that there was which made me ask, can you send me pics of the rust? His reply, just zoom in on the pics in the ad.

A bit of an odd reply, but you'd want to go check it out in person anyways. Common places for rust are the rear fenders (a la every 80's import) under the plastic rocker covers and the underbody/floor pans. Looking at the rear quarters though it may actually be rust free.

You can see bubbling on the rear fender above the wheels on the driver's side. Saw this ad a few days ago and noticed the bubble in the fender right away.

Full repaint is generally not something that will get you top dollar.

Title says 2005... Description says 2004... which is it? $115k is $88,000USD which is substantially less than nearly all the asks in USA for a 2005... assuming that's what it is. Wheels are a fitment tragedy, where are the stock ones and why would you change those out for such derivative wheels anyway? Weird.

Blue on blue makes me horny though. I must be part smurf.

Always loved the Q ship when they first came out. I wonder if this can be saved?

I saved a car once. Pretty rewarding actually.

Those seats are 600GBP each plus shipping from highly reputable online store Demon Tweeks. I could have that whole setup here minus the model specific e46 m3 floor mounts for that price brand new with fresh dated seats (race seats expire for competition use after 5 years from manufacture).

Ya it's really only a fair deal for an e46 owner since it includes all the hardware. I just got a PP from Germany Recaro dealer as their shipping was less than Demon Tweeks. (DHL which turned into Canada Post once in Canada). $1100 + $100 DHL + $130 taxes = $1330 CAD

He actually did not let me drive it.
He probably thinks i am a tire kicker.

If you showed up in a CTR to buy any car I was sellling, you’d get extra consideration as a serious buyer. And i’m an old geezer too.

Good deal for an ‘06 Boxster S, $17K. Dude needs a few less exclamation marks in his ad and the copy doesn’t come across like the owner knows much about cars so who knows what it needs for maintenance but worth a look if one was looking for a Boxster.

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/van/...674150944.html

Porsche Boxter Type S Lowest Price!!!!!! - $16997

Beautiful dark blue/Greyish 2006 Porsche Boxster Type S which makes the car SUPER FAST.

Its a Local Canadian vehicle with Clean Status. Well maintained and cared for through out.

Its a very Beautiful CAR both inside and outside and since its Convertible GREAT For the SUMMER.

Great handling Boxster type S with 6 speed Manual Transmission.

It comes with 19 inch Custom wheels with amazing Boss surround System.

The oil change and services has been done recently plus tires are at 80% thread so in great condition.

This car has it all comes with FULL OPTIONS and the only REASON for the sale is need to buy SUV for growing family.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MUST SEE CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
