    Another good bunch. Thank you for the video. I would have been all over the CRX. Such a cool little car. Fond memories from when I was little with those cars.

    I love how the window sticker for the Camry has its own landscape background. Looks very cool, kinda reminds me of the Windows XP background. Manual Corolla is cool too, those eight gens are starting to become pretty rare. It’s definitely seen better days though, although the body is in good shape for that amount of mileage. That Sable has some wear on but it’s not too bad. My guess is that it was sideswiped. You’re probably right about the fuel pump, doesn’t sound super healthy. I’ve heard the Wagon Sables are pretty desirable, especially the later generations. You’re right about the parts sharing with the G3 and Aveo, I recognized those radio controls from the Acadia 😂. Forenzas, Veronas, and Renos have a lot of problems from what I’ve heard. Although that can be said with a lot of Daewoo based products. The face lifted Aveo (07-11) is a good car. GM finally fixed the issues that it started to have, sadly that wasn’t long before they ended their partnership with Suzuki. That CR-X is clean, really fun cars all around. Crazy that it’s a one owner. They’re becoming collectible now too. Great video!

      You are totally right about that window sticker! Just the right time period too with Windows XP and the "Bliss" wallpaper, 2003 XP was in its heyday. It's crazy how these common cars just a few years ago are becoming rare. You are right about the station wagons becoming popular, seemed like everyone I knew I wanted a wagon of some sort. I had a Taurus wagon for a little while. That's very interesting on the GM venture with Suzuki I knew about Daewoo but not Suzuki. Got to learn something new. I have an '05 Aveo I ended up with.

    I love the fact that the Camry's are built in the U.S.

    The Mercury Sable - I would start with an Idle Air Control Valve. Pretty much every Ford V6 and some V8's I've had over the years I've had to replace those at some point for symptoms just like that. Unplug and see if it changes the way it runs and if it doesn't, pretty good chance it's bad.

    Man, I would've been bidding on that CRX like crazy. Should've thrown in one final bid for 2500.

      @@sebatarth162 I would've fixed the headliner, fixed anything mechanical it needed and then drove it sparingly and garage it religiously.

    Brilliant video! Watching from the UK!
    Can't believe that Merc only made $400.

      Yeah, I always thought W201s had such a timeless look to them. That one definitely needs some work, it’s probably been sitting because of how weathered the interior is and the paint but they’re great cars.

      Yes It is a in person auction so the donated cars usually just go for whatever anyone who has attended is willing to pay for them.

    Fun fact, the Suzuki Forenza (Daewoo/Chevrolet Lacetti) was designed by Pininfarina.

    The Suzuki Forenza was a rebadged Chevy Aveo. Which was a rebadged Daewoo. Absolutely HORRENDOUS cars. Stay away from those!

    • @highmileagehopes9860
      @highmileagehopes9860  Рік тому

      That's great info about the Suzuki being a rebadged Aveo. I knew about Daewoo but not about the Suzuki partnership.
