Festiva appreciation

[freshtiva]

No doubt the resell value of festivas are going up. I get asked daily if I want to sell one. Its getting old. I also noticed one I had asked about several times before was gone today from where it had been parked for at least five years.

Worked for me.

Fresh, educate me. What is a "Sport" like the expensive one listed? I thought the "Sport Interior" had zig zag-like pinstripes.

That one just looks like a 90 L plus to me, other than the Sport decal. Sports came with the interior you speak of, hatch spoilers, and some had the white alloys.

I had a sheriff's deputy ask me the other day about my car - offered a straight up trade for her junky Impala.

Errrr, thanks. No.

That white 62K Festiva looks really nice, but $4000!?

I'd pay maybe $2500 at the most, if it needed nothing.

Oh, and if I HAD $2500!
