    I also want an '85 Toyota MR2. That's a lot more reasonable price-wise.

    They are kinda ugly, but I like the boxy interior.



    I'm going to find something old and fun. I have to.

    I would also like an AMC Javelin. (This one is a '72)



    I love the AMC door handles. Reminds me of the old Eagles, which I thought were ugly as a kid and now I want one. Weren't they AWD?

    Yea, I think the Eagles were AWD, or 4WD anyway.

    My sister had a 74 Gremlin, looks like they used the same door handles for all their cars.

    Yeah, we had a Gremlin, a Pinto and a Chevette. Then we got a Bronco. Big step up. I remember my sister walked to school because she didn't want to be seen in the Pinto.

    Hers had denim blue seats. It was awesome.

    I have always liked the Javelin and they were cool on the inside as well if I remember correctly.

    If I had a choice for an AMC car it would be the AMX a shorter version of the Javelin it seemed with a 390 Ford motor.

    I went all through Mexico in the mid eighties I think they were making them new there in Mexico they were all over the place. Same for the Volkswagon.

    I had a 'friend' that went to mexico and bought a 'new' bug. I think he got it in the early 90s. It looked like a brand new 1960s bug.

    I can't stand the VW bugs, new or old. Especially new.

    The Azteks were made in Mexico. (Speaking of breathtakingly beautiful vehicles) :)

    Not a bad deal really I bet he paid less than 5k?

    Decent gas mileage and over on the left coast still popular you could cherry it out ...would be sweet.

    Cherry out a VW beetle? Blah.

    I'd rather have a Fiat 500. There is one for sale here in town and I kinda want to buy it. It runs, but I don't want to spend 4k on it.

    I think I'd look pretty sharp driving it. Too bad it maxes at like 40mph.

    I would like to see her actually get in that car. There was a club here in Augusta that had one of them 3 wheeled BMWs, like steve erkle drove, and it was retarded small. The whole front swung out, then you got in and closed it. Yea, I dont want a car that weighs less than I do.....

    :)

    It's a tiny car. I would look funny in it and I'm 5'7. I think instead of buying it, I will just carry it home.

    If you want to feel fat, just get a geo metro. I think there is a weight requirment when you buy one. It's like no chick under 2 bills can get one. It's probably more elite than the Augusta National.
