 I won't be able to make it to the challenge, but if I can get this for $1,250 the weekend following this one you can color it sold.

Funny..... I was looking at an older Car & Driver earlier today, and they had a comparo of this exact car, against a Neon R/T.

 

The Nissan won--- they liked it a lot and called it a "Mini Maxima".   Someone is going to get a heck of a deal!

Important question: does it have a sunroof?

If it doesn’t have a sunroof it might not be for much longer. Maybe.

It does have a sunroof.  I still have  it at this point.

Darn. Sunroofs tend to kill headroom for me in smaller cars, especially when a helmet is involved. Otherwise it would be perfect.

Yep, it’s a struggle. Still, if nothing decent turns up locally you might hear from me.

Would you at all consider a trade for my Miata and you throw some cash on top? It’s posted in the open classifieds here at the moment

Sold!  Headed to Michigan to serve as a winter beater...

It’ll still be used for things more interesting than just slogging through snow, I’m sure it’ll see track time, and autocross, whenever my normal ride is down or if I don’t feel like breaking my back/sweating a lot. Sadly, one of the vehicles in my fleet has to be a sacrifice to the rust gods. As much as I hate subjecting a salt virgin to Michigan winters, I hate wrenching on cars that have lived up here even more.

In reply to KevinLG :

sounds like a good candidate for whatever it is that salt belt people spray on their undercarriages to keep them from instant disintegration.   Waxoyl?   I can't remember but i'm sure someone will chime in.   I believe  there have been threads about it on here as well.

Excellent purchase.   If my need was stronger, i would have grabbed it.
