A 15 year old Metro with 190k for $2100 is a “find”?

But it gets 40+ MPGzzzzz. It’ll pay for itself while earning you eco-points.

Maybe not for you, but ppl looking for cheap, fuel efficient and simple cars, yes.  
These are hard to find in solid shape.

It would be a find if it was a 2001 Prizm with 100k for 1 grand.

Just posted it in case someone was interested in something with great MPGs and cheap basic transportation, as there aren’t many of these around in good shape and remember when gas hit $4/gal, these things were in ridiculous demand a few years back.

If you can find one reasonably priced that hasn’t been hacked on by some high school kid.

It’s worth what the market will take.  
I’m not saying it’s a good price, but you have to start high as a seller with the expectation of getting lowballed.

I saw one on ebay a while back with low miles and clean body but something on the underbody had rusted away. Needed to be welded to be driveable. I forgot exactly what area but something to consider, who knows what the underside looks like on this.

That ad is terrible:

There is no such thing as a 1998 Geo Metro. Look at the hood of the car if you need a hint.  
Is it a 3 or 4 cylinder?

If someone is looking for a gas sipper and a little more modern,a local guy on eBay has been selling diesel smart cars.

Lol you are retarded, learn to read/research. Moreover the car has a new HOOD and was REPAINTED [Geo Metro - Wikipedia](http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geo_Metro)

He is probably referring to the fact that in 1998 it was a Chevorlet Metro. Not Geo
