Strange Cars for Sale
 

Here's a FR-S for sale with a full Rocket Bunny (or copy) kit installed and oversize rims, which at that height make this car look like an off-roader. Why go thru so much trouble of installing and paint matching just to trade it in? Also it's strange that the dealer doesn't even mention the kit in the ad, so some unsuspecting car buyer will think this is how FR-Ss come stock?

Also, what's going on with this BRZ? Someone went to town on this thing. The hood is interesting. Seems kind of sad, like it's waiting for someone to rescue it.

Maybe they were used on the set of F&F or something.

If anyone buying this car not knowing it's not stock, he/she must be high. Or some rich mommy/daddy buying a car for their high school kid's 18th birthday present.

As I have said before when people wondered why somebody would trade a new car after one year (for non practical reasons) it has a lot to do with the desire to possess over the actual possession. Many people are actual more caught up in the dreaming, planning purchasing and working on a project then they really are concerned with the finished project. Once the item they desired is theirs or the dream project is complete it no longer fulfills their needs and they start the process all over again. Many that do this never even know that they are caught up in it since the human brain does such a good job of rationalizing action that they always think there was some other reason they moved on.

the rocket bunny car looks like it has forester suspension on it or something

7/10 Would Mad Max

I kind of like that first one. Throw some aggressive tires on it and use it as a rally car.

http://bringatrailer.com is my go-to for oddball sh*t.
They usually feature around six or ten cars every day.
Obviously I keep that page open on my phone constantly.
No. I don't work for them. :)

Just waiting for the day.
It will come. Oh yes it will come.

Inside scoop - the first owner was building his car for rally stages, but traded it in when Toyota released the rally-spec GT86 CS-R3 a few days ago. You heard it here first ;)

Read the whole story in motoring.au right...about...NOW.

oh come on, you mean no one knows if our car has the normal impreza suspension yet? How is that possible? If it does we could swap WRX/STi/Forester? etc suspension components just like all the other Subaru guys do.

Whole write up on that someplace. There are a scattering of parts bin parts that are common to both but that is about where the relationship ends. The majority of the parts are not interchangeable and the overall systems are really very different.

aww, no fun. And I was hoping to be able to attach a JDM Forester STi suspension and go rallying. I guess I have to hope the new rally car's suspension mods will fit and are a reasonable price.

Well find yourself an old Jeep CJ...

I have it from reliable sources those are Canadian cars.

I'd guess they were each traded for a VW Diesel, a few weeks ago, for way better fuel mileage.

For sure, for sure.

In the add it says the cars color is Argento.....so is that really the car or not?

As long as we're talking about strange cars, there's this:

Ebay: 1967 Chevrolet Corvette

This appears to be a very rare 1967 Corvette convertible worth a lot of money. Except that it doesn't have a Corvette VIN, and someone I know who has an exceptional level of Corvette knowledge says that's actually a replica sitting on a GM G body frame. If this is a replica and not some weird misunderstanding, this actually wouldn't be the first time someone had been screwed with a fake 1967.

This car has also been posted on the internet on various car listings from $20K up to $32K. As I write this someone has bid more than $22K for it. How exciting it would be to send off a cashier's check and get your 1967 Corvette delivered, only to discover that it isn't actually a Corvette.

Search that vin and you find that car advertised all over the net. Check the VIN against the 'Vette VIN decoder and there is no way in hell that is a 'Vette VIN. Not even remotely close. Either they have the wrong number listed or your buddy is correct and it is a clone.

That is a VIN issued by the Missouri State Highway Patrol. Apparently if you have a car with no VIN for some reason, the Missouri State Troopers will make one up for you.

Which might make sense in this scenario. If you custom built a fake Corvette out of parts but didn't want to be accused of fraud, you would need to have it titled somehow as a replica. I would be interested in seeing what the actual title says on it. What we think is that it was built by a pretty well-known Corvette restorer in the '80s as a funny project, and he would not have tried to have it titled as a real 1967 Corvette because he was doing it right out in the open to sell as a replica.

ROFL and that black rocket bunny is automatic.....gg :bonk:

I'll take the black FR-S and trade you this for it.

Subaru SVX is ugliest car I ever seen....imo

That makes sense.

Huh hum and where in Canada can you find palm tree or other trees native to more southern territories(picture number 2)?

Also have you ever been to Canada? The day I see a road this nice up here is the day I'm skipping work to drive all day

Weird thing about the SVX (Alcyone) was it was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro as a concept car in '89. Subaru just turned around and put it into production. 4WD with a 3.3 L EG33 F6. Looks silly now, but back then it was cutting edge. Straight off the set of Blade Runner. Took the place of the XT6.

XT6 6/10.

SVX

-6/10

There's just something about it that makes me feel disgusted lol

Yes I've been to Canada. I spent a week there one day.....
