Makes sense. its a rare car. Almost as idiotic as the 1st gen M3 prices with 150,000 miles on them or air cooled porsches. At least a mustang would be reliable.

Fox bodies will be collectibles at some point... they have nearly all been beaten into a pulp over the last 30 years.

$22k for a 996 with 100k on the clock, but comes with 3 sets of wheels/tires, a stock rear cover, a new bumper cover, and the original seats if you don't like the Recaros he put in there. Fixed oil sump and rebuilt engine with new bearings is :megusta: too.

This is like the :mahtroy: dream special.

back then almost 200 hp for a 4 banger was a big deal, especially for an NA engine. Even v8's at that time make power just a little more than that.
Yea well a 10-megabyte hard drive cost 5k. Doesn't mean that we should pay that price for it today.
you're right, great car or not. Not worth a lot of moola, especially considering you have to take care of it like a museum piece and not get to drive it much :sad:

However, if i'm really rich, this maybe a possibility.

Right if getting this car is like the equivalent of getting Guac at Chipotle then yea why TF not... it is a museum piece. For all other intents and purposes it is simply :disgust:

They already are, that $22k one isn't even a bad deal. Shitty-ish ones are close to $10k now.

Pump about $20k into that and you'd have an amazing car.

Right? We should all get one. Weren't we all going to buy gay miatas and blow each other at one point?
There was a white fox going for 12k. Original owner a while back on craigs. It was bought and now someone else has it listed for a higher amount. The foxbody, the srt4 and awd talon herd is definitely thinning out. I'll pick up another later I'm sure.

Unless you're turning it into an AV Boys type hot rod drag racer, I don't see the appeal.

Did you purposely try to find the worst possible car on sale at the moment ?

It would be a :fuckyeah: car for CAM/goodguys/optima/etc muscle car events. Add Griggs racing suspension, a destroked LS3, real seats and some big Rivals.

Compared to almost anything else you could run in that stuff, it would be smaller and lighter and cheaper.
