Cruising on eBay as usual, looking at AE86's, and come acrossthis one, is he for real.....

12K for a stock AE86.....does he really think someone is gona plop down that much for a stock car, especially in this economic hard times.. he really doesnt know how to use or make money IMO.

my firend junked a ***** load of these cars, but with a buy now price of 12,000 this guy must be on crack

am i missing something?:scratch:

No, it is a ricer dream mobile with an insane price tag for no good reason.

Ricer as in you mean the buyer yes, these cars are not ricer mobiles. Unlike Civics and other front wheel drive imports, these were rwd, IRS, some sported an LSD, it had a strong 4AGE motor in them, they are decent cars if done right, but you are correct in the sense that a Fast and Furious junkie would go nuts for something like this and expect to run 10's with an exhaust and rimzzz. i would personally love to have one, especially hatchback, but 12K, forget it, im sure theres one out there for a couple grand that needs some TLC

Ricer as in 99% of them end up beaten to death with wheels painted chrome and a bling wing. As for the engine, maybe it is powerful with work put into it. I remember them being pretty new when I was a kid, slow is the nice way to put it.

Thats funny, my buddy bought a brand new one back in the day and he didn't pay as much. The best thing I remember were the factory seats which were hot and in demand back then as many got stolen just for the seats.

In stock trim oh my yes, but take a 4AGZE out of a MR2 supercharged, and they can get it, or even better, get a 20Valve black or silver top, and they are neat cars, dont expect to make any land speed records, but they can scoot if built right, and they can scream to some nice numbers too, as high as 11,000RPM ( of course in full race trim used in the Toyota Atlantic cars lol.)


You know whats funny, I talked to a guy who had a friend that owned an RX7, like an 87 or 90, and he decided he didnt want to make mpayments on it, so they rolled into Newark, parked under a bridge, took the seats, left the car running, and saw some guys in a van not far away and said, have fun.....Im suprise the seats are a big deal for those cars.

That price is insane.

"Leaks power steering fluid, but it's never been a serious problem, only have to check the power steering fluid every few months.
A/C has never worked properly
Needs an oil change
Tires might need some air"

bahahahaha

This guy is a ****ing airhead...

those cars are sick with a rotary swap

Does it come with a pit crew of 8 Mexicans you see at Atco Raceway? :D

lmfao.....and all the pissed of racers when it oils down the track every other pass.......

Actually those guys prefer using early 80's Corolla's, Mazda's, and Honda 600's for their small size when putting in a Rotary, I would personally feel its blastphomy if putting in an AE86.


You'd thiunk they are mexican, but actually the majprity of them are puerto Rican, just go there on a friday night when they are all practicing there ,adn there are puerto rican flags waving everywhere....I made that mistake a couple years back.. boringist night ever at Atco

thats why I run on thursdays or when the weather is around a 40% chance...got 9 runs in that way one night...and yes that guy is a tool. those cars are supossed to be good drift cars but drifting is retarded to start with so yea

looks like a non-badass starquest

hm...

how about $1,200 ?

there are some AE86 junkies out there, but i don't think they would even pay that much

theres another on ebay now for 10,600 with a primer gray "carbon fiber" lookin hood lol
