    What are the chances that is the same car that sat at the shady used car lot next to Big Sky BBQ for 10 months? It stood out against the backdrop of rental returns and salvage cars

    Looking for cheap manual 'fun' cars/vehicles. Sub $15K...but haven't really come across anything solid. So I don't know if the market is that cheap. If anyone comes across anything shoot me a message.

    On similar token, what's the word on Veolster Turbos? Fun? Worth trying?

    Get a miata.

    Veloster turbos are shitboxes. They are fwd econoboxes with all the problems that Korean cars are known for (I.e., drivetrain doesn’t last).

    Thought about Miata's too actually..keeping aside the feminine aspect of them, thought it might be too weak sauce power wise to be fun. Lemme know if you see any good examples. What year's to target?

    I never looked at the 1M too closely, never realized they were only slightly more power than the 135, albeit with a bunch of M parts on it, interesting but seems out to lunch on the price. Maybe I don't know anything though lol

    If you can stretch the budget a bit, I’d 1000% get an s2k over a miata. They’re both fun, yet in really different ways.

    Fuck this is a hard budget guys. No budging on that, not more than a couple k maybe at most but not even.

    Seeing quite a few Mini Cooper S...have always had a soft spot for them too since watching Italian Job but I don't imagine versions that old are very reliable.

    Another fwd?

    Get an old boxster or Z4 if it’s REALLY a real budget… but like, can you even drive a car worth less than your watch? I think that’s illegal
