I'd say 2500 wouldn't be too bad a deal.

It's a repaint, and not a very good one: Check the door handles, wiper arms, side mirror-and-a-half (psg mirror head seems to be missing), side window frames, sunroof trim, hatch hinges, windshield trim... all "Whited Out."

He probably meant "never driven in the snow," but the car having been in Meenyahsotah for 25 years makes that a little unlikely. Unless he's the documented first owner.

"The road muck stuck to the rear fenders? Oh, that's been there since before winter..." (/rolleyes)

Looks like a MX-5 or some other Mazda product, not an FD though. The windshield is not taked enough.

Snow will not actually hurt the car, it is the damn salt that gets it.

Don't know where the photo was taken.
I think the car in question is a MX5 also.
Could you imagine walking out to your car to go to work, and finding that.

I just realized, the cars have never seen snow, or ice, they can't see.
