if you enjoy owning it it isn't a waste of money.
if you don't, sell it and you'd probably make a little profit.

Its a great car for what it is, 3k is cheapo as well someone probably has bought it already.

It might be a meme car, but it's a great car overall. It might not be fast, but you don't really buy one to have a fast car. You buy one to have fun, and it fulfills that role flawlessly.

Just remember, they were economy sports cars back in the day, they never were supposed to be super fast. If you know that going into the purchase, you won't be disappointed.

I personally think it's a solid car for what it is, if a bit overpriced, but hey, that's the state of the market, and they really are becoming rarer, at least in the US. I don't think I ever want to get rid of mine.

Easy as fuck to work on too, good beginners car to learn to wrench on.

Pic related, it's mine.

seems worth it, but not a penny more

>>15087911
well there's a thread about motorbikes here so what's your point? do you have mild autism?
>>
>>15087571
Buy it just to flip it.

AE86's go for silly money here.
>>
>>15087911
nowhere does it specify that /o/ is about fast cars.

They sell for 20-30k AUD. Buy it for 3k if only to sell it.
>>
>>15088013
when did I imply that you can only talk cars here
>>
>>15088126
It's a bit of a beater, i'll probably get 10k out of it
>>
>>15088130
They're a fun car to drive and you can do pretty much all the work yourself. If it's beaten a bit already I'd keep it.
>>
>>15088128
>ur only aloud 2 talk about fast cars nothing else or ill tell my mum
>implying motorbikes are fast cars
so i was right you do have mild autism
>>
>>15087571
>3k for a Sprinter
Fucking do it. Even if it turns out to be a total shitbox, slap a Fujiwara sticker on the side and you can flog it to some P plater for double what you paid.
It's a shame the tax is so ridiculous on them - they seem like they'd be a heap of fun to tinker with.

What are you talking about, nice strawman dude
>>
>>15088224
>literally has no counter argument
stay raged
>>
you shouldn't even be considering not buying one for 3k in australia.. someone will pay like 8-10k+ for one stock.

just do detail work on interior/outside etc. to make it look good. then sell it and buy a way faster car for half the price.

Don't listen to the shitheads. It's about as fast as a 1.6 miata and doesn't turn as well, but it's very well balanced for drifting.

I semi-regret selling mine a few years ago. It was a really fun car and I almost never saw another one in person. I loved the sound and handling of the car but unfortunately I used it primarily for drifting and I felt like I outgrew the car.
If you get one and enjoy it don't ever sell it. They will probably be too rare to find at all in a few years.

pic related. 20v swapped and my first drift car.
>>
>>15087571
Buy it and sell it.

You could easily make a couple thousand dollars at that price.

I'm an Aussie from Brisbane.

>>15091313
>sell it
>when the prices will only go up and the supply will go down
>>
I feel like I would just total the thing taking it through the curves jamming to eurobeat. I could think of worse ways to go though.
>>
>>15087571
depends, if you want to build it to be a quick project I suggest going here http://www.billzilla.org/4agmods.htm
if not, flip it like everyone else keeps saying
>>
>>15091705
If you don't go overboard and learn how the car responds, it's forgiving to drive. Easy to correct fuck ups.
