I have a family mechanic and this guy does a lot of auction buying and selling + he has a shop. I asked him today how much would it cost to buy a 94 celica, put on a kit, and do a really good Yellow paint job on it. They guy said I knoww just what you want to make it look hot sporty siny yellow. He said he can get the car for $2,500 on an auction and do the kit and paint job for about $2,000. **** with lowered suspension this should cost me $5,000. Thats the price of a used celica with old paint on it and no kit!!!!!

well car auctions arent allways bad news.. a lot of auctions are just dealers selling cars to other dealers.. its not like they are stolen cars or totalled.. just the car may not be selling on his lot so he sells it to another dealer so he can have his take at it..
