dont like it? dont buy it.

you want to spend less than a grand on a car be my guest, see how far it gets you. However if you want a decent commuter car that starts every time, doesnt tic, doesnt smoke and gets better fuel milage than a smart car or even a prius. This is it.

$2,000 is a LITTLE overpriced from what i’ve seen, by no more than a few hundred though. you should easily get over $1,000 for this. KBB is just a guide.

I’d pay $2k for this if I was in the market. That thing is clean and has zero issues.

Good luck bro.

i did, and she runs great, and doesnt look that bad either :wink:

12

wait until gas prices go up again and put it on ebay…these cars were getting like 4-5k on ebay just like crx hf’s getting 6-8k…

13

i would buy it but the words shoe horn automatically come to mind i don’t know why but they do… lol

14

go to a geo metro performance forum and try to sell it you may get even more, no joke theyre out there, just i dont know why they are but deff looks like a clean car, to bad i wasnt winter, id get it but its nice now and im not worried about gas mileage just puddles and snow:(

15

reporter was a d-bag. same dude wrote a story about my friend and made up half the shit in the article. My friend was proofreading it before it got printed and he was like woah woah woah basically NONE of this shit is true
