These guys have not 1, but two unicorns for sale!

Man those dealers in that area are sketchy, however, those look like 2 pristine rare examples. I wonder what their Carfax reports look like.

One of them had non-collision damage from a windstorm and a light front bumper accident...cosmetic.  Repair was the same cost as the racoon hit on my LS430, so it must have been pretty minor.

The Fox Body's are 30 years old.  They're classics now. 

To put it into perspective:  A 1989 Mustang is to 2020 what a 1969 Mustang was to 2000.  And a 1969 Mustang was certainly considered a classic car in 2000.

Yeah but a 64 1/2 was a first year car, it was at least special. I didn't think the Foxbodies were anything to call home about, and I had one. To pay that much for a meh car from the 90s, is to me anyways, glue sniffing ludicrous.

How much does an unmolested 90's Supra go for again?

Yeah but I like that car  ;D

Oh, I get it.  So the value of what a 90's car should go for is based purely on whether you like it?

Lovely Fiat X1/9

Nice!

Those things were quite common when i was growing up but haven't seen one in years.  Great looking car....like a mini Stratos.

This is the concept it evolved from; the Autobianchi Runabout.  It, the X1/9, and the Stratos were all designed by Marcello Gandini.

Don't know why....but I sure do like the Z06 is the color...

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/markham-york-region/2008-chevrolet-corvette-z06-2lz-505hp-head-up-display/1494673908

I like that! Price seems fair too, no?  I've been thinking of dumping the Z3M and getting something like that.   :-\

Cool!   8) Strange though, my page craps out when i try to enlarge that pic.   :-\

Edit:  Works now.  ;D

Yes I can see the resemblance....... maybe the basic shape.

Sweet car or should I say garage queen. Couldn't imagine sitting on something like that for 33 years and not enjoying it.  Also think one could have made a better investments with their $20K over 33 years while still having fun.  Drive them, don't store them.

If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

Meh, an intercooler, injectors and a bit different of a turbo, nothing the aftermarket can't deal with.

The Grand National was great.  The GNX was greater.

...but not for the price you'd pay for a GNX.

And Charlotte NC has a great craft brew scene. Better allow a couple of extra days.
