March 07, 2024

Joshua here!

Sorry about yesterday. I was up all night with a sick baby and didn’t get a chance to look through cars.

With that said, 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! ⚡

SENTIMENTAL CIVIC

1980 Honda Civic 1300 DX

~163,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$4,750 / Seattle, WA

This second-gen Civic looks fantastic for its age. The fender mirrors are a nice touch.

MUSEUM MINIMIZATION - OVERBUDGET

1987 Porsche 944S

~67,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$6,000 / National City, CA

The condition of this Porsche is superb. It is part of a museum collection that is being sold.

TOPLESS IN TAOS

1987 Mitsubishi Pajero

~130,000 miles, manual, 4wd, 4 cylinder

$4,000 / Taos, NM

Without the roof, I am getting Bronco vibes from this. Would love to take it offroading.

BUMPER GRUMPER

1987 Toyota Supra

~158,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 6 cylinder turbo, pop-up headlights

$5,000 / San Bernardino, CA

Needs a bit of love in the rear but is a running, driving example in its current state.

PRNDLUDE

1990 Honda Prelude Si

~200,000 miles, automatic, fwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$3,500 / Hayward, CA

It's a great car as is, but it could be even more fun down the line with an engine and transmission swap.

➡️ 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!

LEMONY ON LONG ISLAND - OVERBUDGET

1987 Porsche 924S

~60,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$5,999 / Brentwood, NY

Awesome shape; just needs an engine.

TWO DOOR TODAY - OVERBUDGET

1995 Honda Today Humming

~50,000 miles, manual, fwd, 3 cylinder, rhd

$5,400 / Bridgeport, CT

1 owner, clean, Japanese import. If you want something unique and functional, this is a great pick.

PNW-LUDE

1989 Honda Prelude

~213,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$3,500 / Ocean Shores, WA

Even with the high mileage, being a Honda, I could see this car lasting another 200k with proper care.

STEALTHY COMPRESSION

1993 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin Turbo

~137,000 miles, manual, awd, 6 cylinder, turbo, pop-up headlights

$4,000 / Minneapolis, MN

Aside from the rear wing, this is the best-looking Stealth, in my opinion, thanks to the pop-up headlights.

OPEN WHEEL RACER

1987 Novakar Forumla 500

unknown miles, automatic, rwd, 2 cylinder, extra parts

$5,000 / Dallas, GA

I have something a little different to end today: a small, track-specific racecar that can reach over 130 mph.
