I thought the Harlequin colours were assymetrical other than the body frame. That one is the same one both sides.

there are still a few OG golf harli's in town. Buddy has one on the island too. obviously the originals were painted.
at one point one of the big dealers in the states (Jim Ellis) actually swapped panels between 4 stagnant cars to put them back to being solid colours to sell them. These cars are well documented - and hold pretty good value

If you want an Elise that's not an Elise.
Could've sworn I saw a Holden Maloo for sale a few days ago, can't find the ad now...

A car like that, you have to actually be looking for it. Most folks won't know what an Opel/Vauxhall is. Could be why they sit for a long time. I didn't even know one was here until it popped up in my Instagram feed

Not bad for $40K, but not great either. You have to be ready to (not need) to drop another $40K to rebuild the motor due to potential bore scoring issues that plague the 997.1, especially if it's a Canadian car.

The theory is climate is colder in Canada and the engine is prone to bore scoring if not warmed up properly, and owners floor it when the engine is still cold. The other theory is that owners don't change their oil often enough and extend the oil change intervals too long between oil changes. This could be BS for all we know.

Low key base 987/981 Boxster under 20k is a move

One of 3 RWB 911 996 Carrera 2 with 226,568 km for 139K. It has 4 HP less than my corolla. https://www.autotrader.ca/a/porsche/...644/?modalXS=1

There's only 3 996 rwbs? I thought there would be way more, and why would you pick a $20000 car with 22x KMS to rwb |

Asking $140k for a $20k car with $20k in mods means that hacked on body kit and wrap are doing some very heavy lifting.
