    Thats a crap ton of miles. I've never seen a Tracer like that though? Looks really cool.

          I would LOVE to find a BF chassis Tracer in that condition - especially a four door like that one. It's the same car as a 323 of the same age, but the 323 wasn't available as a four door hatch in the US.

          With a BP+T it would be such a sleeper.

                thats impressive 400K+ on any car is doing well... and the engine is very clean. i'd question if its the original engine, but its possible.

                    That is SERIOUSLY sweeeeeeet! I would rather have a wagon, but boy that is nice!! Those Tracers were always a fave of mine.
                    If it has boobs or wheels, sooner or later you're going to have trouble with it.

                              It is amazing how far these little cars will bring you if you treat them right.
