Let's see - used mint condition 1975 3.0CSI lists on manheim gold
for $14,500 in showroom/car show condition.

That's my idea of being frugal. Let's see - Corolla or CSI?
Gosh - what a rought choice.



Certainly is, when a Ford Focus RS or Honda Civic Type R will
obliterate either of these cars on a real road, plus having more
comfort and better build quality than the BMW. BTW, even the Corolla
(T4) will run and hide from a 3.0CSi - it's called progress......


You *do* know what a Porsche 930 is? It was also on my list.
Yeah, it's $25K for a show condition one, but that turbo 6 is
a SLIGHT bit different than the typical 911.

And mustangs - you like Detroit steel? 20-25K will get you
a shiny 350+HP GTO or Mach 1 or...

Why drive a connuter-box when you can drive a piece of history?
