At the auction. '90 Its dark blue, only 107K and the body is in great shape except for the hatch has a few rusty spots but I figure I can pick up a new one if I decide to make it more than a winter ride. Being this is RWD how are these in the snow? It’s a 5 speed to which is a first for me lol. I ended up paying $625 for it and so far it runs perfect. Oh and it needs a muffler. ---

Oh and it needs a muffler. buy a hatch w/o a wing…the wings are full of foam that soaks up water like a sponge…every s13 hatch with a wing ends the same way snow: as good as any noseheavy rear drive car, so dont expect much, as with any car, good tires make make a world of difference, and an LSD goes a long way, although its unlikely it will have one ---
