Ya my OKC listing expired... I need to make a new one... Its listed in Tulsa right now....


Watch on CL and you will find something.... I wouldn't buy a $1200 mitsubishi..... Watch and you can probably grab an old Crown Vic cop car... for less than 2k

Richard you should be able to pick up an older VW rabbit real cheap... They are good cars... The only problem with the Corrado is that supercharger....

I watched a really nice older land rover that KBB lists for $2000 retail sell for $4000 on ebay.

I had a nice Passat, but it was a literal pain in the butt and VW bought it back from me.

For an extra car I'd look at more reliable stuff.... So Ricks right... Stay away from most VWs and all british makes....

I've got one you can borrow that works...


Got the RSR on the VW.... Definitely pulls harder now and you can hear the blower whir at speed....
