>>28539251 (OP)
is that supposed to be a good deal or a bad deal i cant tell

>>28539264
Cars like that used to only be worth $500, now any car that runs is worth at least $1500

>>28539264
the fact that you have to ask says more than any words could

If you people weren't wrenchlets you'd just buy two parts cars for 250 each and combine them into one functioning car.

>>28539300
>Cars like that used to only be worth $500
boomers had many faults but being paypigs for toyota was not one of them.

>>28539300
>>28539264
I paid $5000 for a 180K avalon in 2014. Today Im still driving that car at 255k

>>28539300
>>28539464
case in point >>28539468
toyota paypigs ruined the market for toyotas. Just find literally any other brand.

>>28539300
This
Seen plenty of parts cars being sold for 2500+, absolute shit boxes being sold for 3K. OPs Camry is a rolling wreck, it should be in line at the local PnP to be cubed, instead it's on the road.

>mangled hood, check.
>misaligned grille insert, check
>new unpainted bumper, check
>new headlights, check
>more frame damage than Kamala's cooch, check.

But hey it passed smog testing so it's a good car.

>>28539468
If that guy were to try and trade in that same car in 2014 they would have given him $600 bucks trade-in value

>>28539348
Wrenching to save money only works when your time is worthless.

>>28539480
So?

>>28539251 (OP)
>+15% tariffs
Used car prices are about to go up another 20%.
Have fun, goy.

>>28539471
what the fuck are you talking about. when i bought that car it was 11 years old. it is now 23 years old. i will drive it until it breaks

>>28539482
How many more weeks until these tariffs take effect?

>>28539472
Then your normie ass goes out and buys 40k msrp car new, then complains his wallet is empty or worse, in debt. Then the car breaks for whatever reason. To fix OP's car current problems, it would cost less than 1-2k, and it would run to 300k-400k miles.

>>28539541
Also, another thing people don't get is that this car is FUCKING PERFECT for pussyrepellentmaxxing. This car will not be targeted by any nigger, or criminal for that matter, and not one person wants to even steal it. Newer used cars still get robbed/stolen all of the time.

>>28539300
That's because your $500 used to be $1500

>>28539251 (OP)
STRONG
MUSCULAR
CAMRYGODS

>>28539726
Strong? Hardly, just look at it wrong you get a small dent. Never had a car dent so easily. Swear this thing was made of aluminum foil.

>>28539251 (OP)
That price is fine anon.

>>28539760
That isn't that point. The point I was making is that there are people who are bitching about used cars being too expensive. These retards don't even know you can go for a car like this and it will take you from A to B just fine.

>>28539774
The point is that the csr is worth like $200

>>28539541
Kek'd
Nope.
I don't buy over priced, used up, clapped out, rolling death traps that should have been recycled last year.
I'll let the trendy non smoking mommy put 12Kmiles in 2years on her vehicle, and then snag it up for less than half what they paid.
>>28539550
Kek'd harder.
These Camrys are one of the pinnacle of stolen cars. They may be shitheads but they know which cars are good. Camrys are peak JDM scrapers in the hood. They have been getting stolen before you were born.
Contrary to popular YT kid vids, Kias are not THE desirable car to steal. They are just easy to steal.

>>28539784
>Camrys are peak JDM scrapers in the hood.

>>28539782
Anon, inflation has gone up 200%+ over the last 10yrs.
$500 cars are now $1,500+

>>28539843
No I mean it's worth $200 right now in its current state, yet they're asking $1,895 for it

>>28539848
Anon, I hate to break this to you, but there is no such thing as a $200 working driving car.
It isn't 1995 anymore.

I recently sold a 2001 Corolla with 426,000 miles.
No paint left.
Only 1 functioning door.(Only exterior handle worked)
Smashed up from 2 Mexicans hitting me.
Burning oil like all 1zz engines.
Interior worn out.
Synchros basically non-existent in the 5 speed.
Busted taillights all taped up
Broken seat belts
It sold for For $1,200 in 12hrs.

>>28539758
Who the fuck cares about dents you retard

>>28539859
And this is the problem with the used car market LOLbmaooo0o0o0

>>28539848
>back in my day we used to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps, give the boss a firm handshake and buy a house for $10,000

>>28539861
You don't like cars, we get it

>>28539867
Correct, what I really enjoy is the act of driving.

>>28539865
Lol that camry is FUCKED
My neighbor wanted to sell me his ~2010 335i for $1000 because he couldnt fix it, but it ran and it was still clean
You'd have to fucking pay ME to drive that fucking camry holy fuck

>>28539348
>frog
>dumb post
Checks out

>>28539784
>i don't buy overpriced cars
this price is comparable to other makes, you can look it up yourself. anyone else saying they can find a car that can run for 500 is bullshiting, or they don't know the car will blow up the next day after they buy it.

>>28539884
>2010 335i
>"just needs a quick repair"

There's a reason it's $1000 retard

>>28539890
I never said "it just needs a quick repair"
I said it was clean and ran still
It was in limp mode THOUGH, so it was probably only a little bit faster than the camry, but for half the price bmaooo0o0o0

>>28539892
>I never said "it just needs a quick repair"
>It was in limp mode

>>28539867
you're such a fucking idiot, yea, that's what it is....

>no dents motherfucker!

>>28539894
And STILL faster than that FUCKED up camry that they want $2k for bmaooo0o0o0

>>28539897
>just drive around in limp mode forever
>what could possibly go wrong?
>$1000 what a steal!

>>28539477
He probably got $300 (if that) trade-in value in 2025, but stealerships gonna steal, so here we are

>>28539895
Why did you take a picture of two MONSTER TRUCKS parked there? Why are they even there in the first place?
You don't like cars, we get it

>>28539899
And STILL faster, more luxurious, and in better condition than the fucking FUCKED up camry that they want $2k for bmaooo0o0o0

>>28539903
and cheaper
Because nobody wants a heap of shit krautmobile with an undiagnosable limp mode problem that will cost $10k to fix

>>28539905
And yet

>>28539906
and yet you didn't buy it

>>28539912
I didn't buy it because it was GrAY on GrAY and a sedan. If it was a coupe or a manual I would have

>>28539300
You could get more from a scrapper

>>28539251 (OP)
my mattress costed more than that

>>28539929
newfag alert

>>28539791
The point is OPs Camry posting is a $500 car. Used car market is fucked with delusional sellers but there are just as many delusional buyers. That's the problem.

>>28539937
Bah!
That was meant for
>>28539889
mea culpa
Oldfag problems.

>>28539937
but you don't get that $500 cars do not exist anymore, unless you know how to wrench. But normies don't know how to wrench, which is what this topic pertains to.

>>28539915
>would have
>didn't
Almost as if no one wants a heap of shit krautmobile with an undiagnosable limp mode problem that will cost $10k to fix

>>28539957
It wasn't undiagnosable lol and he sold it a couple weeks after offering it to me
It also wouldn't have been $10k to fix lol why are weeblets so fucking delusional godsDAMN bmaooo0o0o0

>>28539960
Why didn't he fix it before selling it then retard?

>>28539987
Because he waa clearly a ricelet "wrenchlet" in the parlance of our times.. He only offered it to me because I asked him why it was sitting in his driveway with a flat tire for a year. And I only asked him about it because it had 666 in the license plate bmaooo6o6o6o

>>28539994
why didn't he pay someone to fix it then retard?

>>28539906
Looks far better than that cleaning lady camry.

>>28539864
Bruh, your money is worth 1/3 of what it was years ago.

>>28540006
im not the aspie you replied to but inflation hasn't been that bad.
soaring used car prices are a product of residual psychological phenomenon of scarcity stemming from the 2019 china virus

>>28539998
Don't know don't care nerd retard bmaooo

>Just find literally any other brand
Yeah, Ford will be fin ACK!

KBB is a joke for 20+ year old ricers. Can sell these for $2000+ all day on CL/FB if they run and have a clean title.

>>28540019
>anon finds out there's a reason the limp mode BMW is cheap

The $3k Civic now costs $5k

>>28540058

>>28540079
Almost as if no one wants a heap of shit krautmobile with an undiagnosable limp mode problem that will cost $10k to fix

It's probably not this whack though. For my american friends, that is 200k miles

Oh yeah?
Try to buy a KFC camry wagon!

>>28539251 (OP)
I just payed $23 thousand for a honda city turbo 2 with 180000km, that seems a bargain

I live in a top 20 metro area and there is literally ONE private party 2015-2020 Prius with a clean title on Craigslist within 150 miles of me. Is EVERYONE just trading in their shit to dealers these days?

The answer to your questions = mass third world immigration. Literally millions of people are pouring into your country wanting cheap cars. Your government and ngos even give them cash.

The used car market is yet another thing that would benefit greatly if you cleaned up your country of third world parasites

>>28539471
Honder and Suzuki still wins.

>>28539489
