Nice insight, but aren't you getting a bit distracted?  How much was the Insight if you don't mind? I was just looking at some here for fun and they start at like $8k for 200k km which seemed a bit ridiculous.

slothrop posted:Always great to see more progress on your sweet Opel! Agreed, great progress! As I might've mentioned before, I'm living a bit through MNZ here as my grandfather used to have a Manta (basically its spiritual successor) that was unfortunately lost to an employee and subsequently some shithead relative of his. However when visiting him again just now, I saw this one parked outside which made me seriously consider making an offer on it:   As far as I recall, it's exactly the same version, just red instead of green. Unfortunately I have nowhere to work on it, already have a Miata that I maintain myself on the street, and our stupid regulations make any kind of engine swaps extremely difficult. Still, it's probably running and in decent shape so ughh...

I never got to drive one unfortunately, but the first gen are definitely the best looking ones, especially black magic  . The B2 like that one look super 80s, which is perfectly fine as far as I'm concerned. After looking at it a bit closer, it's in decent but not perfect condition - there are some scratches and rust spots on the wheel arches and hood, but no sockington-grade disasters as far as I can tell. I'll probably leave a note to call me if he considers selling it. Even the biggest wrecks go for over two-three grand and I'll probably be able to do much better than that here. I could also take advantage of low labor costs and have as much stuff done to it here first, so this just might be my first project. Rhyno posted:those seats though.

Yes please finish the GT and stop getting distracted by other awesome projects! This edging is getting well into Project Binky territory.
