That is being sold by member rmcelwee. "Too high" is a question only you can answer. Is it worth that much to you? |

Looks really clean. To me if it checks out mechanically it would be worth talking to the owner. Lots of man hours to get one into that kind of eye candy shape |

The fact that the person selling it is a member of this forum eases my mind. I'll go check it out. There's no question it's a good one! The detail in the listing is not something you see often on Craigslist, that is for sure. |

Just my 2 cents. I think what he is asking for it is spot on. Sure you can get one between $500 and $1000. But after you put all the money to get it up to where this car is , you are looking at about that much anyway. This is a forum member that probably has taken very good care of the car. It was his daily driver. Plus AC and rear defogger? If I was looking I'd jump all over this deal. Plus you would know for sure what he has done to the car. Just not some ass hat that's selling a Metro on Craigslist. That you have no clue what has happened or chopped up. It's the " well it only has 89 thou on it" come to find out it has 289 thou. Good luck Otey |

I would NOT buy this nice geo for a young driver. Get them a beater....or better yet have them save up and buy their own car? But this is a very nice metro. For $500-$1000, you get a slopped out metro in my area. |

Sold my 94 XFI last year for $3300. $2300 for a car with history & the owner being a longtime member here is a great deal. You can buy a piece of junk for $1,000 & quickly dump way more than that into it fixing all the neglected stuff. Around here $2300 won't hardly buy anything dependable, much less something that you can get 50 mpg out of. |

1. I agree that a metro in the hands of a new/young driver is asking for problems. I once talked a father OUT OF BUYING my metro for his daughter because of the inherent safety issues of a metro with a young driver behind the wheel. Young folks need a lot of steel between themselves and whatever they hit. just saying 2. I would never hesitate to purchase a vehicle from Robert. He is a great member who has the capacity to "do things the right way". IF he says the metro is "golden" take that statement to the bank! 3. You might get a price break if you take him 440 rounds of 7.62 x 54r ammo. That man loves Mosin Nagants.

A Panasonic radio screams 'quality' hehehe. Really thought, the car looks mint. I'd snatch it up. Too bad it isn't closer and is missing the rear set of doors. My local Metros are trashy... |
