Or my business partners 1989 C4 for $19K

Kevin M · 2006-01-20, 12:23 AM

Did Doug Gale ever sell his M3? IIRC he was only asking $14k for it, track-ready with bone stock drivetrain (except clutch and flywheel).

Can you actually get a running FD in that price range?

sybir · 2006-01-20, 09:45 AM

Sure, but how long will it keep running?

I need to get rid of both Subarus so I can still afford to eat

I would kill myself before paying almost $20k for a 1989 Chevrolet.

(i.e. you really should say "Porsche Carrera 4" when you're not on the POC website.

I'm going with a M3, or one of those M hatchbacks those are sweet I wonder how much those go for.

haha!

They have one down at Winkel Pontiac with no brakes(I'll tell you the story at the next meet)

I started them at 18,500 for it. 62k miles, kinda beat up, silver.

M Coupe.

Theres one at Winkel Pontiac for <20K. Tyson knows about it...

Also, I was in the truck today, and a sweet looking White M3 with a for sale sign blazed by me, I couldn't get the phone # of the sticker though

It was probably a 92-95...

Has anyone driven the Mazdaspeed Protege?

Kevin M · 2006-01-26, 11:21 PM

Fun to drive, but the engine sucks. I got to fool around with one once right before I got canned at Nissan of Vacaville. Also, the motor is really no better than an off-the-shelf turbo kit on a stock Protege. It's essentially just remapped fuel and ignition with an RRFPR. :/ Same as the Mazdaspeed Miata. But, the Protege is a great car, for a pre-2000 FWD chassis. Good handling dynamics, good reliabilty overall. But you can get an RS for the same money...
