Jesus, why? This has got to be more than it cost new, right? Obviously this guy is one of the crazies who thinks some special limited edition car will be worth more in the future, but in 1988 he could only afford a Celebrity. Also,  at "it has a tac!"

I also don't understand why GM just didn't use the 6000's instrumentation, as it had a tach mounted in the normal gauge cluster.

The red inserts in the wheels look awful goddamn. The rest is neat in the neo-future sort of aesthetic way. EDIT I see a Pioneer box in the rear footwell there, and no shots of the stereo itself. If that's installed then that isn't 100% factory original SIR KakerMix fucked around with this message at 16:40 on Apr 17, 2018 |

Turns out the guy had the same car on sale two years ago. https://jalopnik.com/for-12-000-this-1988-chevy-celebrity-eurosport-vr-cou-1745450865 The article includes a link to the ad. Same ad, same pictures, same text. He's discounted it $5 to help move it this time.

I'll take multicolored Yugo on jack stands for $3000, Alex. I decided to add "rare" to my searches, because people always seem to equate it with "valuable."  https://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/cto/d/1987-yugo-1800-miles-rare/6508921231.html Suburban Dad fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Apr 17, 2018 |

True, that. I have to admit that I kind of liked the Eurosport back in the day. It had a boxy charm. rhombus posted:Jesus, why? This has got to be more than it cost new, right?

I decided to add "rare" to my searches, because people always seem to equate it with "valuable." dat mileage  in the early 80's there was a used-car dealer here that decided to break into the booming discount car-rental business they imported a fleet of 40 or so Le Cars - which basically evaporated due to the salt air. ~ two years later they tried again - with a fleet of Yugo GVs. With hilarious results. The cars (and the company) no longer exist.

Blue interiors need to make a come-back. Grey is boring and black gets too hot. It's going to be a PITA to restore mine but one of the reasons why I bought my car was it's blue interior. The PO ruined it though by fitting beige seats in it, also leatherique is being annoying (no correct colour code on their USA website and the aussie distro sucks, is a ripoff and never replies to emails)
