Wow, that's quite a fleet! Fun too.
 
Thanks! I consider myself to be extremely fortunate and blessed to own those vehicles. I'm probably going to sell the 2002 in the spring as I do need to let go of at least one car- but it is such a sweet drive. My wife and I took it to run errands today and it is remarkably comfortable and civilized.

But I think this guy is a little optimistic:

Which is fine with me because if I was in Florida I could swoop in and pick it right up.

From the ad date I bet it's long gone though.

Looks like someone likes "Dreamsicles" even more than me.

I'd pay $6000 to have it hauled away for scrap.

"...for scrap..."
 
You probably overlooked that the rear seat had been replaced with woofers.

I would be all over that Convert, at those miles with a new tranny. Though the white on white would be hard to swallow. Can you find it in a better color?
 
actually white paint is fine, just need another color interior!

You can siphon gas out of the tank so it must be worth $40.
 
Actually no, leave the gas in there for when you BURN IT WITH FIRE!

There is at least $200 worth of scrap metal -- put it on the line at a junkyard and it will get picked clean of anything useful. Very cool article on TTAC about how that works.

a few months ago one of the car magazines did a piece on what happens to "junk" cars these days. they got an old 3 series, and followed it through the dismantling and recycling process. Quite sophisticated these days, and nothing is wasted.
