emissions, yes, but mostly- cost. Not cost effective to sell a GT4 that would list close to 30 grand- RX7 territory in its day
-------------------- Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06
Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driver Car #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03 |
