The get the prices from KBB, which is really flawed when dealing with specialty cars. They should try to find these cars on autotrader or actual classified ads if they want to state they are available for under 10 grand.

I’m pissed i clicked the link though…because now i feel guilty for having not even touched my car, or made any attempt to fix it/get it fixed since it broke 6 months ago lol.

the one pictured though with the j-spec fascia = tits.

i really like the BMW too…always been a fan of those.

Joining that list VERY soon will be the 04 GTO’s. I’m seeing 11-12k on eBay right now.Best bang for your buck if you want 300hp reliably.
