I'm sure most of us browse craigslist for the obscure, fun, rare and cheap cars that we may or may not like to buy.

The question is, what search terms do you usually use? Below are a few of mine that typically include some fun results.
- track
- rod (includes hot rod, street rod, rat rod, etc)
- street
- race
- wrx
- s2000
- datsun
- Classic
- muscle
- awd
- project
- turbo

???

p.s. Anybody want a GT40 kit car? !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

I keep looking at them to see if their prices are going down, they're doing the opposite, however.

-wagon speed [meaning five or six speed]
-Mercedes manual
-Mercedes speed
-BMW coilovers
-E24 [for parts and things, although I've been known to buy complete cars]
-E28
-M3
-328is

-rare

-civic trade

-WRX
-legacy GT
-coilovers
-mr2
-lowered

And for fun:
-slammed
-bagged
-stance
-swag [some funny ones sometimes]

Good list! 'Swap' or 'swapped' can also result in some interesting combinations haha.

Searching the term 'rare' often results in some pretty funny stuff

For random browsing I like to go with "turbo"

But also Datsun, mazdaspeed, and more specific stuff like mr2 and gto.

For fun results, search "unique" or "custom" this brings all the horribly modded junk up.. Pretty fun to laugh at the cars and their asking prices.
