Stick and 3.27 gears. I like this car. Only downfall is that it's on consignment by that dealer, so you will have to pay 40% more than if you went through owner.

Yup.

But the consigner doesn't care. They are charging the owner a monthly fee to market the car. They will also take a percentage when sold.

Only $8k too much. LG4, no backlit gauges, no WS6, hard pass.

Re: Here's a cool '85 TA.

I love the low mile originals but am endlessly enticed by clean summer drivers at a discount.
eg
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/...ationFlag=true
In janqui terms, a $3400 USD ask on a 112k mile ‘89 350(??)

I need dagwood to teach me to paint...just blue to start. :P

The amount of third gen projects that come up near us on Kijiji is a dangerous game, if I had parking for 8 cars I promise I'd own 8 cars by now
