as far as paying 9k, seems reasonable, it's a disposable car

There is more info from the owner in that thread.
The migratory-pattern one is mine, but it's yellow not pearl white (and mine is currently up for sale - there's an ad here on Beyond).
The only completely pearl white one in Calgary that I'm aware of is owned by a men's wear shop, but it has a giant gold lion on each side (were those pics photo-shopped to remove the "free advertising"?!?!).
Why would someone pay more than $9k for an S-Cargo?!?
Here's a few reasons:
1. They are one of the most unique vehicles you'll see on our roads. More non-car-enthusiast people will notice an S-Cargo before a Skyline.
2. They are rare vehicles (with only 12,000 units manufactured between 1989 and 1991, even less than the Nissan Figaro) and they're getting rarer by the minute. They've become a collector's item. A good quality S-Cargo actually fetches a higher price in Japan than a similar quality Skyline R32 GTS-t.
3. More practical than a Smart Car... you can stack about 6-8 bodies in the back, or haul up to 300kg.
4. It's quite entertaining to see so many people get into near-accident scenarios because they're gawking at the S-Cargo instead of paying attention to the road or the upcoming stop sign, or the oncoming semi-truck.
5. Believe it or not, the cute li'l S-Cargo is more of a chick magnet than any sports car could ever be. That alone could be worth the extra money for some guys.

i dont think ill believe this one, unless its a pity date?
the S-cargo is sick, but i think a lambo will you get you more girls, or even a porsche.

While both cars attract female attention, I'd think the ones that go for the Lambo and Porsche guys are nothing but gold diggers out looking for implant funding.

I could believe it. A cute car like that will probably really disarming because you won't come off as being too cocky. I also think he was comparing the S-Cargo to something more along the lines of a skyline..as he mentions.
I've had reports that a hummer (or maybe it was a jeep-like vehicle?) draws far more chicks than a ferrari/lambo.

Uh, yeah, the "puke green" one (Nissan's official colour name is "Dark Yellow") is mine.
I only own the one S-Cargo... never saw a red one up in Citadel. Are you sure didn't witness me driving blistering fast down Nosehill Drive as the S-Cargo reached terminal velocity at max friction, causing the whole vehicle to glow intensely red?
It could happen, y'know.

S-Cargo stands for Small Cargo, but Nissan also had a good sense of humour (at one time) and was most likely poking fun at the French as it is believed that the Citroen 2CV was the design inspiration for the S-Cargo.
http://www.2cvimports.com/
The snail-like avatar I use on this forum is the actual logo for an S-Cargo taken from the front floor mat of my S-Cargo. It can also be found on the rear mud flaps.
I think the snail logo and the name is too much of a coincidence to be a coincidence. :D

delivery people dont buy smart car, they buy something else.
people buy smart car because it goes 69 miles / gallon, it has 6-8 air bags, heated seats and its sold my mercedes.
saw that thing today on Center street. Made me look twice. Definitely a unique ride, if thats what hes going for lol.

That one isn't mine, either. There's a brake shop on 16 Ave near Centre Street that owns one. Usually has it parked out in front of their shop on 16 Ave.
FYI: There are at least 7 S-Cargo's in Calgary...
- I own 1 S-Cargo right now (which is the second one I've owned)
- A certain men's wear shop owns 3 of them (they purchased my first one plus 2 others)
- A Calgary Z Club member owns one (which I shall not name because he might not appreciate it)
- Chris (steeno) owns 1 S-Cargo (he's already mentioned it on this forum, so I can mention it again)
- And that brake shop on 16 Ave owns 1 S-Cargo
Anyone know of any other S-Cargo owners in Calgary?!

Neat car, the inside looks rather nice and clean from what I saw.
I'm always for something that is original and unique.

Oops! Did I say that an S-Cargo was more practical than a Smart Car cuz it can haul 6-8 bodies?!
I meant to say that an S-Cargo was more practical than a Smart Car cuz it can carry way more than 2 bags of groceries on the way home from work (so I don't have to drive all the way home after work to pick up a bigger car that can haul the groceries, then drive all the way back to the grocery store).
BTW, I don't use my S-Cargo as a delivery vehicle... It's been my personal everyday car since Apr 2005 to commute to work, get groceries, haul stuff, and race the local garden slugs (if I give 'em enough beer, they'll let me win all the time).

Guy in the Ferrari was sleeping at the line, if he got the same RT as the smart he'd have won.
