Capri & XR2
Guy close to me has 2 Capris. One's a manual XR2, the other an auto base model non-turbo. Said he wants $1300 for both cars as a set! One runs (non-turbo) but the turbo model has a messed up turbo and both cars are in horrible shape bodywise, but that's not the reason I was lookin', of course. I figured 'em for junk so I though I'd ask, and it floored me when he said I could finance them both for $1900. I pretty much thanked him for his time and left out quickly. I wouldn't have given him $1,000 for both cars, even if it did mean I got 2 B6 motors. No XR2 swap for me today! Hunting some more...

There's a real problem in SC with dealers stuck on a seller's market even though the unemployment rate here is close to 22% claimed. I'm surprised they didn't end up C4C cars.Originally posted by fattie View PostIn love with a MadScientist!:thumbright:

Thats probably why he wants so much for them, is because he couldn't get the 4.5K for them for C4C.Current cars:

That is quite a bit of money, i'd try offering $200 for just the XR2 since it needs a turbo :lol: it may piss him off but oh well, maybe he'd actually accept
1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?Comment
