Wanna see Ridiculous?
If this keeps up, you'll start thinking Canucks know nothing about these cars
Here is the most stupid price I've seen for awhile. It appeared a few days ago in our local buy/sell online, and I figured the owner had posted the ad with one too many zeros. But by now he/she would have corrected it, so I gotta believe the price is for real. Too bizarre...

Actually, $21,248.13 USD at the moment, but the way our exchange rate has fluctuated over the last year (at one point worth more than the USD), it could be that low tomorrow! I'll have to buy some USD today in eager anticipation of picking it up for a song
By the way, the same web site has an '81 Spider (with mods) for $2,500. So maybe this fellow thought that guy had left a zero OFF?

That's not a wind screen. That's a mizzen sail to help combat the rising price of gas.

If anyone wants to save some serious money I'll sell my 1980 for only $17,000, INCLUDING DELIVERY!

Maybe she is from amazonia! Or maybe she forgot to put the decimal point in!

Re: Wanna see Ridiculous?

hey, do the windscreens help enough to warrant the uglyness? My GF would prefer NOT to have her hair flailing her face.

Due to recent budget cuts and the rising cost of electricity, gas, and oil, we have decided to turn off the light at the end of the tunnel. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Aww, come on guys, can't a fella try to recoup how much money he spent in repairs to keep it on the road? I think he priced it accordingly, maybe a little low .

No bondo or body work. Well, no body work except the side stickers. And the chrome around the fenders. And the aftermarket wheels. And....and...
If you want to spend $23,000.00 on a Spider call me. I'll find one, restore it to better than original, deliver it to you, and make about $8,000.00 in the deal. And, if you're a fiatspider.com fan, it comes either with or without bumpers.
