Thanks!
But of course. Oh, and throw a 2001 Suzuki GSX-R 600 in there for good measure. My favorite ride of all. :DQuote:

So get this. RX-8s are actually still a relative bargain in this wacky car market. Did a nationwide search and saw some pretty nice examples for sane prices! No manual swap required. Hehe. I might try and save up some more $$$ and could actually get a pristine, low mile one.
Back on my radar! Thanks for the reminder, everyone. :D

Sounds like their flooding temperament might fit the thread title nicely
Exactly!!! It's almost perfect. Checks the quirky box for me, fun car, just unreliable enough to belong in this thread, and best of all cheap for what it is!Quote:

This looks like a bargain priced steezy ride, a bit too flashy for me so I'll keep searching.
Guy can get you financed as well! He's like a Bobby jr. , shoot the dude a text and get this sale done.

I think I'd need to borrow touring_sedan's ozone generator to rid the car of it's Axe body spray and hair gel fumes. With those looks and New Jersey plates it was DEF Guido owned.

It's not rusted out, it's a manual, it's quirky, it has a reputation for being unreliable, it's fast and fun... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace...ok_story_share
Holy shit.Quote:

There’s a word missing in the Vega ad. Can you determine where it might belong?

I don't even see a description for the Vega. Did he edit it?
Definitely ticks the boxes: mid-70s GM quality + aluminum engine + nobody gives a shit = long sits in the driveway due to lack of market support. And if it ever warps, you've got yourself a nice boat anchor.
Ya, description is gone.Quote:

I don't know if that radio went in other GM cars of the era, but it instantly brought me back to my childhood and all the time spent in my parent's Vegas. Yes, as reported in other threads, my dad was a serial Vega owner. He wrenched on them. Because one had to if one wanted them to go places. In this way there was commonality with the Le Car owner of the day. When VT passed their salvage yard laws about the number of dead vehicles one could have on the property without a salvage yard license, my dad had to sweat a little. You definitely needed a parts Vega, or three. He did not own any as "cool" as a Cosworth or the Monza badged model.
[QUOTE=Ted Striker;6550022]Because they were able to buff it out. There are currently no scratches or scuffs.Quote:

In the summer your sneakers would stick (melt) to the floor in the front passenger seat, that was fun. It was unbelievably reliable, supremely uncomfortable and slow as shit but you could put 2 golf bags in the trunk and it got incredible mpg. A week after he sold it the tranny fell out because the mounts had rotted but he truly had no idea. When I "stole" a car out of the driveway when I was 13 it wasn't this one.
Did some nationwide searching on RX-8s today. Found some REALLY nice, lowish mile examples with non-working motors for dirt cheap! All with MTs. Starting to think that is what I might do. Don't know why these haven't been on my radar til this thread. Going to need to coordinate truck/trailer and time off if I can score one, so it won't be easy. Might take a few months to find just the right one for me, but we'll see what happens! The hunt begins...
