Yeah, nobody's brought it up, but that is certainly a problem when selling a "track" car. Bargaining chip!

I was in Staunton today, saw a Syclone for sale.

Just sayin'...

WOW, those have gone up in price.

They were really cool, but all but worthless now, except as an oddity. Engine blocks/heads would be semi easy to find (in the rusted hulk of a Geo Storm) but any other part might as well be unobtanium. Transaxle, rear suspension parts, turbocharger/related, intercooler...I think the rear diff might interchange with with some early subaru rear diffs, though.

I know WAY too much about these cars, and I've had the opportunity to buy a few of them on the cheap (I still have fond memories hooning in my Geo Storm) and I turned them down every time. The rarity of a lotus with the build quality of a Geo? Hmmm...no thanks.

Even the little Lotus that it shared an engine with I would run away from. But they were really cool. GM did us all a disservice cutting Isuzu's car manufacturing, although by all indications all the "important" car engineers from Isuzu ran to another small Japanese car company, so it's all good...

Another problem with that car:

18,000 1990 dollars? That's $31,000 2010 dollars. That's like, STI money.

lol Lotus Elan....forget the engine, run far away from a fwd lotus.

Speaking of weird, ridiculously rare Isuzus, I spotted a VehiCROSS the other day. I kind of really want one.

Its almost as terrible as an Aztek but in a much, much cooler 90's retro garbage kind of way.

They are a little ugly, but surprisingly capable when the road turns off the pavement. That torque-on-demand AWD worked pretty well.

and rex steps out of the isuzu fanboi closet


Re: Cool cars for sale that ain't yours! - WRXtranceformed - 09-28-2010

I had a Rodeo that I drove for a while...it was my mom's car and I basically inherited it. I actually really liked that SUV! It was a freaking tank in the snow, even on shitty tires.

Right off the showroom floor, more or less...

Although - what does the "Nissan" button on the HVAC do?! Looks fancy. Speaking of fancy, and the polar opposite... the material covering the seats, door panels and floor. I think industrial carpet looks nicer than that.
