Someone please confirm that this price is absolutely ridiculous? I mean, I get it - low miles and all, but 18,500 dollars for this car is insane.

[edit - wow, maybe not?

Not really that out of line for a good condition, low miles, stock E30 M3.

Am I really behind on E30 prices, or is 1800 dollars a little much for a non-running 1985 318i?

Sex Truck (Goosetown)

I am ready to sell this totally RAD, vintage Ford F-250!

Trust me, this thing turns more heads than [insert really clever line here, I was thinking something about a doctor giving physicals to a football team, but I digress.)

This 1966 model is a 4-on-the-floor manual transmission with a granny low gear, and its got a 352 engine. Mechanically speaking, it is in solid working condition. Cosmetically, the body is in good shape (very little rust) but there are a few scratches in the paint. You could drive it every day, or you could make it a project and make it perfect. All I know is that I'm not taking it with me when I move out-of-state.

The best thing about the truck is the way it feels when you get it out on the highway. The second best thing is how much attention it gets.

In conclusion, I want to sell you this truck. MAKE AN OFFER. You can do a drive-by (corner of Davenport & North Governor - parked in the driveway on Davenport) or email me to set up a time to come drive this machine.

Thanks for lookin'.

RAD VINTAGE F-250!!!

What.

Wish I had time, money, knowledge, and a place to put this car.

quote:

I am selling my 1967 Pontiac Bonneville Ambulance. It is a Superior Consort model. The Consort is a stock wheelbase model so it uses standard 67 Pontiac suspension and brake parts.

It has been in my shed for the last 15 years. The body is a classic 20 footer. It was painted in 1992 and there are lots of little issues all over. The interior needs a lot of cleanup. It has a good dash, door panels and a headliner, the front seat is fair and the carpet is junk. I have the rear bumper.

The engine is a 73 455 Pontiac that I put in about 7 years ago. It has about 50K miles on it. It runs but needs a tune up and carb work VERY bad. It has no brakes and no exhaust.

Included is a 68 Bonneville superior consort hearse for parts (the hearse had a partial interior fire and there is no engine or trans).

Also included is a stash of 67 Pontiac spare parts.

The picture in the driveway is 16 years old but shows what it looks like with nice wheels and the light on it. The lights are included (you can see the center light sitting on the front seat in the pictures).

I am asking $1500 for both cars.

It does look really clean, though. Is $3700 really overpriced for a car that clean?

Keep in mind that I live in the rust belt and cars with no rust and no paint damage from road debris command a premium here.

For a 4 door 318i it's clean enough, but with those wheels and the other little things you notice on it, it's not that nice.

In California I think you can pick up a lot nicer 325 instead.

In the midwest, at MOST $3k. I could sell my 4door 318i with LSD, E36 rack, all maintenance records could go for $3k.

Single exhaust outlet. The 325 would have two. It's an M42 equipped 318i. Sidenote : hubcaps are quite rare on second generation (plastic bumper) E30 models.

Which is odd because my 1991 318i had all 4 hubcaps, and another one for sale recently also in town had all four hubcaps as well.

1987 SUBARU Gl 4x4 with true 4wheel drive and lo range too
141,000m   Fabricated from rare minerals excavated from the core of Mount Olympus, artfully designed by Zeus and skillfully handcrafted in the Land of the Rising Sun by the deft hands of the infamous 7 Samurai. This Japanese rice-rocket is unquestionably the most heroic form of transport since the Apollo 11 lunar module.   Searching for a delightful automobile to ferry you Barnes and Noble to buy 50 shades of Grey, or perhaps cart little Blueboy to clarinet lessons? Do me a favor, smash your laptop on the ground, give yourself an uppercut and take a good, long look in the mirror. Frankly, I'm offended.   If, on the other hand, you're hunting for the most diabolical slab of precious metal to be synthesized during the Big Bang, please continue. . .   To date, the most monumental day of your existence was your wedding, or the birth of your children. That's about to change! In fact, you'd trade your spouse and all of your offspring just to test-drive this barbarian.    FACTS: this car transported the Statue of Liberty to New York City from Paris.   Cast as KITT in 1982's Knight Rider TV series, but eventually deemed too intelligent for the role.   Manufactured in 1987, this Gl was responsible for the Grunge movement. If Kurt Cobain owned one, Nirvana would still be thrashing out tunes.   I drove it to my last job interview and my employer handed me his r�sum�.   If you were to be run over by this beast, you'd have to fight off the strong urge to thank the driver.   When the cops pulled me over a few weeks ago, they were lucky to leave with a warning.    SPECIFICATIONS: .   2 front seats from a 0-60 in 5 second car (thrones) back upholstered with Albino Panda fur died blue..   Stereo system used for sound engineering the U2 360 tour.   Built-in chick/dude magnet (it knows your preference).   Integrated time machine (takes you back to 1987 when you step inside)   Powered by nuclear fusion (makes Coles/Woolies fuel vouchers redundant)   Windscreen wiper jets filled with the tears of Jesus (washes away the most sinful grime)   No power steering (so you better start pumping iron to shred your biceps)   Analogue clock (ask your Grandfather how to read it).    PRICE:   $4,300 or   Reasonable offers accepted.   (Example of a reasonable offer: $10,000 +)   Jackie Chan once drove a car like this in a movie called Cannonball Run. If you want to look for rust (besides on the 2 front rims that came from my BRAT), you will have to go look at another car, this one has NONE and never has had. It spent it's entire life in the Desert SW scaring rattlesnakes out of their skin. This car will not be sold to someone who cannot do the following: Check/change their own oil. Change a tire by oneself. Replace spark plugs, fuels filters, etc. If you cannot do your own simple maintenance, then you are not worthy of this type of car. Simple

I have for sale a 73 coronet wagon. 54,000 original miles. Car needs a little TLC but very good car and worth the money. 400 big block and 727 trans. New fuel line from front to back, new fuel pump, carb rebuilt, new coil, new battery, and tank been dropped and cleaned out. Main issue is brake work, I believe the rear brake line broke on way home. Will look into it more when it warms up a bit. Front brakes still stop it. Little surface rust in spots, but solid. Slight scrape by right rear tire that scraped molding but no dent. Interior is drat near perfect. Plastic panel next to driver seat on b pillar is cracked. 3 row seat has a a tear and rear carpet by 3rd row seat is intact but not the best. Rest is good. Make good resto project or drive it. Right now asking $2600 obo. If I fix stuff the price will go up. If it don't sell probably just keep it so no low ball offers.

The extra T in Hot makes it better.

Also that 190e is loving bad rear end. Actually seems to be right in line with pricing... not quite as desirable as an E30 M3, but still a pretty brilliant car. Plus the engine sounds amazing, though I am a BMW fan.
