Do you ever find something on CL and you don’t want to close the tab, so you just leave it up for awhile even tho you know you can’t buy the car? Here the two I have open right now. The first one is a mechanically well maintained, and cosmetically ratty quad headlight Fox Body. Asking price is 4,000 which is super reasonable, i dig it.

Kinja'd!!!

It’s even got a clean interior with what looks like some nice bucket aftermarket seats.

Kinja'd!!!

The other is a BEAUTIFUL blue 2011 Ranger, 4.0l, manual trans, extended cab, 4x4, XLT. Probably the best ranger you’re going to find. Dealer wants 16,450, which is crazy. Ur honestly if I had it I’d pay it.

Kinja'd!!!

So what’s on CL that’s got your attention

Yeah, there was a E91 328xi 6-speed for sale nearby with low miles. White with tan and grey. It was also 18 grand. I had that tab open for two weeks.

Yes. I have this one open right now that I’m sure you’ve seen. It’s not because I want to buy the car though.

I don’t know BMWs well enough to know if that’s a good price or a high one

Are you sure you don’t want to buy it?

Pretty sure. But I want someone to. That kind of effort deserves to be rewarded.

True, I like it but I don’t love S13s enough to drive 2400 miles for one

Actually, this one I wrote about yesterday irritates me more. Why must you be so far away.

If I never close the tab, it never goes away...

I’m partial to the Javelin myself but AMXs are rad too. I love how cartoony the proportions of it are.

I have these open right now.

1991 Euno Cosmo

1991 Honda Beat

1991 Daihatsu Mira RV4

I could afford the Daihatsu, but RHD insurance is very expensive here.

Found one of those too. I am surprised how many “affordable” classic cars are around here.

I knew a girl with a 300M who loved it, before that she had a LeBaron. I drove the 300M once it was like a spaceship compared to the 91 Civic I was driving at the time. And she kept her heat at 93 degrees. I’d never thought a car could heat up like that in when it was -10 outside

4k for a fox? Wow. Hm. Maybe asking $2000 for mine won’t be as ridiculous as I feel...

Yeah prices on AMC products have stated reasonable, you could almost justify one as an investment

I don’t think so. Seems about a 2000 dollar car to me. Those two extra cylinders cost a lot

That was me yesterday, with a ‘66 Chrysler Imperial 4-door with a 440 Wedge. I could probably afford it...just really shouldn’t.

But I want to.

My third car was a (non special) 300m in champagne gold. For a car made by that era Chrysler it is actually fantastic. It was absurdly spacious, comfortable, and actually handled remarkably flat for such a big car. The 3.5L v6 in that car has similar output to a vq35 and was reliable as well.

Only gripes were the seats that had no bolstering, and the trans started to whine. I ditched it knowing the trans was the weak point of the car.

I bet it felt extremely weird coming from a 91 civic...its like a worse version of what automakers were putting out in 2008, but all the way back in 2000.

I remember when $4400 for a fox body in any condition was CP... I junked an 85 Notchback that was just a little worse that one.

That Frontier looks great. Unfortunately it suffers from the typical “I swear it only needs a $25 part to be perfect” crap I see on so many cl ads.

Seems like a $500 car to me but then again it’s a Mustang.

I guess it depends on where you live, i could see it on CL for 2000 and selling for 1,500
