Joshua here!

I hope you enjoy today’s car finds.

As always, you can reply to this email and send us any of your finds that you think should be included in tomorrow’s email.

Now, let’s get into it! ⚡

SLIDE ‘N ENGINE

1989 Nissan 240sx

unknown miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$4,500 / Lawrenceville, GA

Overall condition is a little rough. The engine doesn't run, but it does come with a spare. Would be great for a drift car.

SHIFTY SL

1999 Mercedes Benz SL500

~143,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 8 cylinder

$3,800 / Albuquerque, NM

Once the transmission is fixed this car would be a lot of fun to drive.

SILVER MISFIRE

2005 Subaru Forester XT

~195,000 miles, automatic, awd, 4 cylinder, turbo, lifted

$5,000 / Richmond, CA

Turbo was replaced recently and comes with a $950 roof rack. That means the Forester is (technically) only $1,550.

Clean & Green

1994 Geo Tracker

~141,000 miles, manual, 4 cylinder

$3,800 / Fort Collins, CO

The interior and exterior look super clean. Has an upgraded radio and sound system.

BISHI BOX

1990 Mitsubishi Montero

~192,148 miles, automatic, 4wd, 6 cylinder

$5,000 / Walnut Creek, CA

They don't make boxy SUVs like this anymore (at least not affordably). In need of a head gasket.

➡️ If you buy a car listed in Good Deal Garage & email us a picture of yourself with the car, we’ll feature you in the newsletter PLUS send you something special in return!

UNDERCOVER IN CHICAGO

1985 Mazda RX-7

~135,055 miles, manual, rwd, rotary

$5,000 / Chicago, IL

It needs a reseal, but the exterior (from the little bit I can see) looks to be in excellent condition.

STANZA LONE

1986 Nissan Stanza

~2,000,000 miles🤔, manual, 4wd, 4 cylinder

$1,200 / Cheney, WA

I'm not sure the mileage is correct, but if it is, that's impressive. I honestly didn't know this car existed, and now I want one.

ELUSIVE TITLE

1983 Datsun 280zx

unknown miles, manual, rwd, 6 cylinder

$3,900 / Beaverton, OR

Like a lot of these, there's quite a bit that needs to be done. However, this one does run and drive.
