BUDGET-FRIENDLY BOXSTER

2000 Porsche Boxster

~94,000 miles, manual, rwd, 6 cylinder

LOTS TO LUV

1980 Chevrolet Luv

~160,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$5,000 / McMinnville, TN

LUV THE PRICE

1977 Chevrolet Luv

$1,800 / McMinnville, OR

If the last truck was too expensive, here is one a couple of years older with fewer miles for considerably less!

A little quick research says this supercharged engine should be making over 100 more horsepower than stock.
