Nice Car- Can't believe the price

A friend of mine sent me this link for a low mileage 83 GS. A bit pricey for me.

$19K and an Automatic?? yeah, good luck with that. Maybe in 10 yrs when 5-speeds are popping at $30K...
Right price. Wrong decade.

It's a stunning example no doubt. Price is double what it should be for an automatic transmission equipped FB.

We're seeing RX-7s moving out of the enthusiast market and into the collectible market. Originality and rarity are the most important factors.

Plus, dealership. There's a dealership in Cincy that specializes in M cars, E30 M3s are usually listed at $80-100k or so, for what would be a $30-40k car from a private seller.

*scratches E30 M3 off of the list of cars to own someday*
