So you have a great, reliable DD & $20k burning a hole in your pocket. You are also itching to have some more fun in life.

There are few options for you to choose from, the 'Murican brawler, European classic, or Japanese drift machine.

Kinja'd!!!

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! has gone full American with a 440 slotted up front, because why not? If you don't live near anything that resembles a corner this is thing would be a blast.

Kinja'd!!!

Or maybe you're the kind of person that does like corners. In that case no one could argue with !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Those wheels, that spoiler … hubba.

Kinja'd!!!

But maybe "sideways & smiling" is your mantra, a slightly used !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! could be perfect. With only 7k miles, you could even say its the sensible choice.

What car (& therefore lifestyle) do you choose?

911. I've looked at the exact one for about a year now and can't believe it hasn't sold. If I had the money that thing would be gone. It's perfect.

As much as I love that ducktail'd SC ... dat Dart ... Holy Hell! So. Much. Want.

Oh yeah, the Scion wouldn't stand a chance. Might as well burn it.

You managed to make this very difficult. Well since I have a reliable DD, the Scion is gone. It's not quite "fun" enough anyway.

The Dart is tempting. Because V8. But it's gold.

So 911 it is.

I'd take the 911, but that Dart is pretty sweet too.

I'd rather have either of them over the FR-S because of depreciation.

Hard to argue, I'm assuming it would still have the warranty too.

Both of them.

If the 911 were a few years older, or if the Dodge didm't have a 440, it would be the Porsh (troll). But it is a 1981, and the Dart does have a 440, so I'm going to go with the Mopar.

Well, if it's there in 18 months I might just consider it. I'm not that familiar with 911s, but I really want one. Hopefully this thing isn't a dressed up shitbox.

To be honest, that may be why it hasn't sold ….

I'm glad it was at least a challenge. But IMO the gold is even better, dates the car more.

Yah, but for that price and what it looks like, I'm surprised no one has bought it. Those wheels, bumpers and exhaust and still worth money.

I have to go with the Dart because my grandfather had one in the same color.....minus the 440.

Exactly! That gold is exceedingly proper on this car. See also that distinctive Mopar Green they used back then.

Ehh the '81 is close enough for me. But the Dart is also a great choice.

Dart. No question about it. If that 930 was a turbo the answer would be Porsche though.

It's between 100K and 150K that many things need replacement. I know there would be things that would need to be done, but the guy did do a good bit to the car. With 911s you are better off have a high milage car that's been taken care of and driven rather than a low milage car that's been babied.

Jeez thats cheap. I guess we all should have said that one, could’ve made some in just a few years.
