So a Gremlin would be a luxury because we don't really need it to get around. We could just ride a bicycle.

Oooh, didn't see that one coming!! Good one!

But anyways, I suppose a Gremlin would be a luxury to a person riding a bicycle or walking on foot.

A better question may be: How much did it cost you to get OUT of P-cars?

$13.5K and I think I paid too much. ROW absolutely rust free, but aftermarket a/c which I didn't know, no compressor for the tires, tools, manuals or master or alarm keys. Only one I looked at and that was before I knew about a PPI or Pelican. On the whole though, I've got $15K in it tops and I can't complain too much. I'm sure in retrospect, I could have gotten the price down another couple of thousand, they were asking $15K.

LOL, my current 914 track car was $4K and completely street-drivable and nice looking when I first bought it.

Then of course I proceeded to tear into it, keeping myself as well as the UPS guy and my mechanic very busy for the next 2 years. I haven't added up the receipts, and don't plan to.
