For $7,495, do nice E21s finish last?

The seller of today's E21 claims it's the nicest on Craigslist. That might just be so as it looks to be in remarkable shape. Its price however, as is often the case here, may not be so nice. I love sellers who feel the need to provide options for prospective...

For $4,500, oh no, Beta!*

While a moot point in the era of digital downloads and DVDs, Panasonic's VHS did at one time beat Sony's Beta in the consumer video recording contest. Lancia's Beta also lost out to more reliable fare, but today's Coupé could rewind all that. That is, if its price makes it...

For $65,000, it’s not just a Ford, it’s a Tickford

Aston Martin recently unveiled their fiddy grand version of the tiny Toyota IQ, the Cygnet. That brand bastardization may be the most extreme, but as today's Tickford Capri demonstrates, it's hardly the first. This Capri's price however, may just tick you off. There used to be a chain of Supermarkets...

For $75,000, wake up rip 'Vette winkle

Did you ever jones to buy a brand-spanking new C4 Corvette ZR1 but for whatever reason could never pull the trigger? Well, today's never-been-kissed Corvette ZR1 will give you another chance, while its price may feel like you're the one getting spanked. Capri pants are those high-water jobs that can...

For $6,500, get Teddy Ruxpin's Roadmaster

Whether you love it or hate it, there's no denying that the U.S. edition of Top Gear has one thing going for it and that's resident beard-wearer, Rutledge Wood. Now, it's rumored that today's ‘96 Roadmaster is the Rutster's, so it's got that going for it, but does its price...

For $26,995, take home the Grand Prix

The era of grandiose American luxury coupes is long gone, and those who still jones for a big two-door boat from the past have to put up with their utter lack of modern amenities. That is unless they buy today's custom '71 Grand Prix, which has been modernized. Its price...

For $9,250, Get A Derange Rover

Old Range Rovers are relatively light due to being clothed in aluminum, but that’s not to say they couldn’t be lighter. In seeking that goal, today’s rock crawler has been denuded to its skivvies, but it also comes with a price that might mean the buyer might just be taking...

For $3,500, put an eagle in your nest

Today is Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, and in honor of that, our contender is about as Yankee Doodle Dandiest, all-American a car as you can get, American Motors that is. Its price, however, may live in infamy. Yesterday, real rocks rather than those found in a Crack Pipe ruled as...

For $31,190, quick, somebody get Paul Blart on the phone!

It's not the Bluesmobile, nor does it possess the bloated orca-like visage of Caprice cop cars of the past. But while neither of those things, today's Caprice PPV presents an interesting opportunity for the individual who can swing its purchase requirements, one of which being its price, which might seem...

For $20,000, how you gonna keep ‘em down on the farm?

Aston Martin made so few of the outrageously styled Lagonda sedans it's hard to believe there still some unaccounted for. Today's Series II is claimed to have been found hiding in, of all places, a barn, but does that make its price farm fresh? A fresh Chevy Caprice cop car...

For $2,999, keep waiting for that VTEC to kick in, yo!

There's an old saying about things difficult to categorize being neither fish nor fowl. Exemplifying that maxim, today's custom Civic is neither wholly Honda or BMW, but will you find its price is completely foul? The only thing more amazing than how Bob Ross effortlessly turned blank canvasses into works...

For $7,500, you don’t have to be a superhero to have a Sidekick

In the 1992 movie , an asthmatic kid learns karate in the hope of meeting his hero, Chuck Norris. Today's Sidekick has an industrial diesel - which is likely pretty asthmatic as well - but will its price make it something even Chuck would kick to the side? Applying custom...

For $12,000, V8-powered X90, that is all

In October of 1947, Chuck Yeager piloted the Bell X-1 rocket plane through the sound barrier and into the history books. While not quite that fast, today's SBC-powered Suzuki X90 should be just as scary to drive, and its price may prove a substantial barrier. You may be asking yourself,...

For $3,000, this EuroVan is like a Euro beach

Remember Top Gear's ? The guys who built (un-built?) today's Eurovan Cabrio sure do — but will this topless VW's price make you say forget it? At twelve grand, yesterday's diminutive came up a little short in the vote - like 82% Crack Pipe short. But that automotive equivalent of...

For $10,500, this quattroporte isn’t that Quattroporte

There's an old maxim - practice makes perfect - that suggests it's worth doing something over and over until you finally get it right. Today's Maserati 430 is hopefully the result of following that dictum with the company' s Biturbo line. But, does it's price make it practically perfect? So...
