m42 rarity
« on: August 21, 2007, 08:52:49 AM »
Hi, I've been looking on and off for a nice M42 however they are pricey and hard to find. I was wondering if anyone had advice as to what else would be a fun economical and quality car. I used to have a turbo 900 classic which I loved but they are hard to find here as well.

Keep looking, there are good deals on 318is's to be had.
It took me 3 months to find my car, and I should have waited another 3.

Remember, these are old and somewhat rare cars, nice ones are not as easy to find as the local dealer lot.
Worth the wait though.

Closest thing I have found to the 318is is a Porsche 944 (EXPENSIVE to maintain) and the non-turbo Mazda RX7 of similar years.
