    Mother of god is that pretty. It even has the elusive 12" alloys. Not that they're really GOOD for anything, but damn.

    With the price of gas climbing the way it is, I'm surprised this is ONLY $600

    It's only $600 because "....it's hard to get into 4th gear." I have to imagine a gearbox will be needed soon.

    Still, for a few hundred dollars, it would be a good candidate for a newer/more powerful Mazda engine and transmission.

    How on earth can you tell from those horrible pics that it's "clean"? All I see are mushy jpeg compression errors.

    Yeah, I drove all the way to Newnan (after leaving the office early)........The WHOLE time I am on the phone with the guy. He's all "come on; it is waiting on you". I get there (80 mile trip) and the guy is like, "I sold that 15 minutes ago". That is the way it goes, but damn it! The whole time I was driving home I was thinking about where I could have picked up 15 minutes and got that car. Anyway, mine is on craigs right now. I bought a 323 GTX last night for $50 on the way home. Yeah, $50. Unbelievably, it runs well.............

    This would have actually been one of the few cars that a K8 would have worked well in.

    I happen to have a spare K8.

    WHAT?!?!?! $50? You kidding me? I dont know how long I have been looking for one!

    Yeah, I think since it wasn't a nitroused 350 the shop it was towed to wasn't interested. No, it isn't coming to the Challenge, but an awesome find none the less.
