Is this for real ?

If I'm not mistaken this is part of a VW intake manifold for a bug.

At least it's not listed as rare.

2000 Datsun Nubira being offered for sale at an actual car dealership!

Two things. Good luck getting $3500 for a 2000 Daewoo and even though the Daewoo has only been out of production for about 7 years, the dealer remembers a name that hasn't been used in almost 30 years.

Of course it had to be in Tennessee.........:stupid:

You are correct sir. In highschool, I had a bug (actually several) anyway, this is akin to straight pipes usually used for a Sandrail. It is missing the extractor that bolts to the center and points up like a tail. Very loud, very cool but not street legal here in Tx.

I knew it off a bug.

Hey, he fixed the listing!

He doesn't know what it is, but he will be happy to pack it up and ship it to you!

And since I didn't want to clutter the board with this bit of craigslist inanity, I figured it best just to tag it on here.

I am happy to say I have absolutely no affiliation to the seller!

Original text as follows (though I did x out the phone numbers)

GOOD-

THIS IS AN ALL ORIGINAL INLINE V-6 DATSUN 280Z

LITTLE IF ANY CRACKING ON DASHBOARD.ORIGINAL ALL THE WAY THROUGH....INTERIOR IS BLACK LEATHER ON BLACK

THERE IS A CARPET COVER FOR THE DASH WITH 280Z CARPET MATTS TO MATCH GUYS IT LOOKS LIKE IT JUST CAME OFF OF THE SHOWROOM FLOOR

WHICH IS DAMN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO COME BY ESPECIALLY WITH THE UNIQUE 77 MODELS NOT A 76 OR 78 BUT THE 77 MODEL WITH DARK TINT ON THE WINDOWS AND CHROME TRIM

BAD-IT WAS MADE IN 1977 STILL HAS ORIGINAL BABY BLUE PAINT CLEAR COAT IS STARTING TO BARELY FADE BUT JUST FOR

SAFETY I WOULD GET IT A NEW CLEAR COAT

MILES: 18,362 (SEE PIC IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME)

TRANSMISSION: AUTOMATIC

THERE IS NO KELLY BLUE BOOK TO COMPARE THIS CAR AGAINST SO I DID THE BEST I COULD AND LOOKED UP HOW MUCH OTHER

DATSUNS IN THIS YEAR AND KIND OF CONDITION THEY RANGE FROM LOWEST 18K WITH ALOT OF

COSMETICS WRONG TO 30K ONLY 800 ORIGINAL MILES SO THE PRICE IS SET AS IT IS BECAUSE ITS WHAT ITS WORTH ILL WORK ON THE PRICE BUT NOT MUCH

PRICE:22K BEST OFFER WILL BE TAKEN EVEN IF ITS NOT 22K (22,000)FOR ALL THE LESS SMART OUT THERE

MY NUMBER IS 615-xxx-xxxx STEVEN IS THE NAME OR CALL MY FIANCE 615-xxx-xxxx LINDSEY IS HER NAME SHE'LL TAKE THE MESSAGE

I must admit that I am tempted to dish out $22,000 just so I can brag about having an inline V-6...

And Mally, yes-it's in Tennessee...

And a car that's rolled the odometer once past 99,999.

Was there something unique about the 77? or is it unique like my 72 Z isn't a 71 or a 73
