Why so cheap? I know it's a clone, but even clones get big money these days in the US.

I found this 1971 Pontiac Firebird | AS-TRADED| TRANS AM CLONE| on autoTRADER.ca's Android app and thought you might be interested: http://www.autotrader.ca/go/5-43825903

Jeez, can't build that car for that.  That's a real deal if it's as advertised.

Me neither but the ad is good. It’s a $1500 car, which is sad.

Subaru’s that are only 10 years old are not aging well.

Dino 308 GT4 put to pasture years ago. Not pretty. To add insult to injury, it has a whitewall front right corner - maybe Hercules  ;)

Sweet air cooled 911.  The engine refresh was done with the right stuff, and the G50 trans makes this car much more desirable than 915 equipped versions.  The interior mods are super tasteful.  I prefer the tea-tray spoiler to the duck-tail, but it still looks good.  This would be a nice car to own and keep...

I like the ducktail!

This won't be cheap...

The staggered 16" Fuchs are worth a bloody fortune now on their own.

I loved my 17" staggered Fuch reps.  They looked "just right".

Looks like 6 and 7" Fuchs, so not the really pricey ones.
Lots of nice upgrades.    The engines look so much better than the CIS cars which are mostly hidden in hoses and stuff

Firms Jag got me excited.  Figured I'd see what's out there.  Hmmm...what's a better buy?  A 10 yr old 500 hp shupa-cah or a 5.0 Mustang.  I know which one I want to drive...

2010 Jaguar XKR $34,500
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/strathcona-county/2010-jaguar-xkr-excellent-condition/1443247744?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true
the wheels are arguably nicer than the next one


Or a 2012 XKR for $39,999 - firm! (it's calling his name!)
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/markham-york-region/2012-jaguar-xkr/1453335536?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true


See, the 2010 has nicer wheels.

So, then I went shopping in Florida for price comparison (almost better odds in Canada)...and saw this... :love: :love: :drool: :drool: :drool: :flowers: :flowers: :fall: :fall: :inlove: :inlove: :love: :love: You get it...I get it...

1969 Oldsmobile 442 - $30000 (US $ of course) convertible 400/4speed
https://miami.craigslist.org/pbc/cto/d/jupiter-1969-oldsmobile-442/6959623427.html
Just look at it...tough call...a Jag or this...yum...


I'm sorry...was I looking for a Jag? ???

But...it'll never happen.   :brkhrt: Wah.  :'(

There’s currently a ‘91 with 76k miles on it on BaT.  Current bid is US$8100, so C$8500 for this is probably in the ballpark...  Bidding started at US$1K.

Big old T-Birds are a favorite here, right?
1976 Lipstick Edition Thunderbird $9500
https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1976-lipstick-edition-thunderbird/1443348575?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true


Check out the interior.


Pre PCV days?  Fack, that or it blows so much oil out the intake it needs an oil filter on the air filter.

Maybe it's a dry sump...
