There are a lot of these cars popping up on the FOR SALE section???
 
I keep looking for a clean version of the car used. I noticed the for sale section is filled with modded options.

Do you think people didn't realize their needs before they bought the car?

Is this similar to when the new wrangler 4 door came out and people really didn't understand the nature of the vehicle?

Or under-performance?

It would be nice if there was some more competition. Come on S3000 lol

Yeah, if you look 90% of those cars for sale are by people who need money and cannot afford the car.

I had a car for 6 months and got rid of it, it was a extra car... that money is gonna be used on something better in the future

Yes to the above, the car has not been misrepresented, there are a myriad of posts and reviews detailing the shortcomings. The only disappointments would be those who bought on impulse or never have the opportunity to wring it out.

An S3000 would destroy everything under the $75k bracket; ~300-325 bhp @2800-2900 lbs, that's competitive with the Boxster/Cayman depending on the package.

Oh for sure. But how ridiculous is that price? $28k with 11,500 miles...I didn't know dealerships don't like selling used cars...

InvalidJohnny5 09-05-2013 12:46 AM

Lmao why the fuck are there two valve stems?

forzajuve 09-05-2013 12:48 AM

Probably helped mark up the price $1,000 you'know dealer strategies

In most cases they actually decrease the value of the car along with eliminating a large percentage of potential buyers.

Doesn't matter, the car is still happy.

Haha a nice clean shave to the front. Interesting....now it looks like a wannabe stock FRS aftermarket bumper that doesn't look proportioned. Another truly remarkable value increaser :clap:

FRS_ing 09-05-2013 01:45 AM

Come on....he wanted to get more airflow into his intercooler for that turbo in the BRZ that the FRS doesn't have.

Everybody at gas stations tells me that I should've gotten the Subaru. So much regret. Oh how I long for the AWD!! :(

One is to put air in, the other to let air out

Those are Enkei NT03's and are a pretty good wheel. That car is just awful though. :barf:
