Look at this listing http://kansascity.craigslist.org/cto/2462327193.html Why do people lie it makes all GEO owners look bad. I cut and paisted the text below. see listig for pictures Two complete Geo Metro Convertibles for sale. We are moving in September and I do not want to ship these. I will only sell these as a pair. I will not break them up. Both are 1992 (only year made) and have a single engine was available from 1989 through 1994: a 1.0 L I3 engine. Rated at 55 hp (39 kW), the engine achieved 38 city, 45 highway mpg per the revised 2007 EPA mileage standards. But I can tell you I average 40-45 city and over 50mpg on the highway with the top up. The Grey Geo: Runs great, gets 40-45 MPGs, automatic, new tires, and new top. The automatics on these are very rare as they were produced under 1000 worldwide. This was a audio show car. It has am/fm CD tuner (blaupunkt) and a huge tube subwoofer. This car also has DVD player in it. The stereo placed in this car was for a showroom audio store. Its a huge score for a audiophile. Its amazing. It has 61,300 original miles. The engine is in pristine clean shape. The car has grey wool interior and the larger touring seats that are heated. There are no rips tears or issues with the interior. Its pretty much brand new. The entire car is really beautiful and gets a lot of attention. The Blue Geo: Runs real good and same gas milage as the grey one except this is a 5 speed Manual. With a hydralic clutch. I have to say I bought this car for a parts car last year (for body panels) but its so solid on the engine that I have driven it all winter long. The interior of this car I would put as good condition. It has the recaro racing seats in it. Pretty confortable with no tears or issues. They have a red racing pattern on them. This car has 77,000 original miles. There is a dent in the back right 1/4 panel. Car drives and runs great. I have owned, restored and worked on Geo Metro's since the late 90's. They are very fun economical cars that seem to bring a smile to the faces of those who see them. I get stopped all the time in the grey one (that has no geo markings on it) and people ask me "what is that cute car". They both have drivers side airbags and about a 10 gallon gas tank (good for over 400miles). They are SUPER cheap to insure (about $300 a year through allstate)There is great storage in the trunk and behind the seats. I often put my dogs behind the seats when we are traveling. They ride nice on the highway and with the arrodynamics the car posesses? They can ride in blowing wind and gusts with little movement on the highway. I just wish they would have came with cruze controil but you cannot have everything. Everything works on both cars. They are available for a look at anytime. Just call ahead. Located at Shawnee Mission Parkway and Nall. Call Edward at 913-999-7368 these will not last long there are tons of collectors wanting these and they can go as high as $9000 a peice on ebay. |

And they only made the G10 from 89 to 94 according to this "Expert". I also Love the 50mpg claim for his automatic.

I doubt any of us could buy these cause the collectors are lining up for a crack at these beauties. I'm suprised he doesn't have them at the Barret Jackson auction due to their highly collectable nature. One year only models with one have the ultra rare automatic and the very limited production ( only 89-94) G10. These should be in the Smithsonian!

Sounds like a Antiques Roadshow. Every time they tell somebody how much their item is worth, I think alright, then YOU give it to me asshole. Need to move the decimal point one digit to the left for this guy and Antiques Roadshow. |

Could we please see pictures of these rare add ons? "Because it has a "Winter" button on it that causes no slip. Now how is it that GEO didnt release this to the US? They evidently knew the CHEAP consumers here would not pay for it at the time. " I would love to see this one. |
