I feel like this is exactly the type of vehicle that Firm would love.

Reminds me of the Mitsubishi Starion.

Also reminds me of that Trans Am/Ferrari clone from the 80’s. The Machivelli Max.

The exterior is a little too far out there for me, but that interior looks really sweet, that interior in a regular black Firebird would be lovely.

Kinda neat, a manual Honda Passport which was a rebadged Isuzu Rodeo. Too bad it's RWD. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2000-honda-passport/

Wow that thing is clean, yeah, too bad its only RWD.

I almost bought a brand new Isuzu Rodeo back in 2001, test drove it and was close to pulling the trigger. We also looked at the Nissan Pathfinder as well, and were close to making a deal on an SE model with a manual transmission. Ended up with the Dakota Sport 4 door instead with the 4.7 V8 and a manual because the ex-mother-in-law was a FCA employee so we got the big discount

Any one of those with a manual was fairly uncommon!

We actually ordered the Dakota, took 6 weeks for it to be built. There were quite a few Pathfinder SE manuals around at the time locally & the Isuzu was more rare.

Found a 2008 Cayenne S on marketplace not too far from me, it has a dead starter and possibly a bad valvetrain sensor or similar. 
Guy just wants it gone now, should I look at it?

Of course you should look at it.  Should you buy it?  That's another question.

Looked at it a couple of hours ago.
From the outside, it looks perfect.  Open the doors and the bottom is rusting out on 3 of them, driver's the worst with holes in the bottom.  Driver's seat is hard like plastic and has a crack in the leather, don't know what they used on it.  Passenger seat is fine.   Underneath it could be worse, but has the same rust spots as mine on control arms, fuel-tank straps, etc.
I could get it for $2k, certainly cheap enough, but I don't want to deal with the rust.  I don't mind working on the mechanical/electrical stuff, but the rust makes it still look like crap every time you open the doors.

Will keep looking I guess.

How about a manual GTS?  https://www.facebook.com/share/3qRCVXYKNcNwtcLZ/?mibextid=79PoIi

That came up in my feed as well.  Nice, but the wife wouldn't want to shift gears.   This might be more in line https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/356191460295171

So many look like scams.   What looks particularly scammy about it to you...apart from the guy's profile?
