Default Best deal in HISTORY
Ive been looking for my new sc300 5-speed for a minute. Well I happened to be browsing the net and found the best deal in history. Im picking up a 93 5-speed with 130000 on the clock for 1700 dollars. I mean i didnt think these deals existed but I was oh so wrong. Man this car is worth 1700 if it didnt have an engine, transmission, and was on 4 bricks. I will have pics up when it gets here.

1700, wow, I'm both happy for you... and worried for you. Were you able to check out the car? Anyways, best of luck, and please do keep us posted. I'm very curious.

I too am interested in the condition of the car. I wonder how much work will be necessary on the car? Will it be worth it in the end?

Nice deal... keep us posted.

I say start off with the cheapest sc300 5 speed you can. 10 grand more, keeping an eye on the budget, doing most of the work yourself, you can beat more than 95% of the cars on the road.
