Alright, I'm going to redo this thread.

You people are all putting down normal 'cool' cars.

Not weird cars.

Does it have the original Lemon over Lime paint job?
I thought it was simply called the Studebaker President Speedster.
Nice car, Rob, but I'd actually prefer the original '53 starlight coupe. Less slapped on chrome. That has to be the most radical car design ever to come out of Detroit (OK, South Bend).

The only other weird car I have owned was a 94 Ford Taurus SHO. The car was a hybrid of american muscle and japenese intelligence. It packed a 220 stock hp Yamaha 24v DOHC engine plus it looked cool and screwed! It was the ultimate sleeper until it hit a telephone pole ouch!

I dunno...

I believe the SVX isn't weird, just unique. In that case I think almost all the cars that have been listed can be concidered unique or rare with the exception of the Dodge Neon listed by Landshark I concider things like the Thing, an Amphicar, or an Aztec to be weird (or just god awfully ugly). Everything else is not really weird, just "cooler" because it's got it's own personality rather than just a thing with wheels. Oh yeah, since the recent SUV post I forgot one more awesome "weird" car I'd want, an Izuzu Vehicross. Not really good at anything, but I just love something about the way it looks. I got to sit in a Vehicross Convertible roadster concept at a car show about 4 years ago(don't think they'll ever make it), very cool indeed.

DeLorean....... the car to buy. Alhtough, it is kind of expencive. Ebay range from $10,000 to $20,000, but still, love the look.

BTW, how rare are Deloreans?

Weird cars

For all you mint Brat fans. There just so happens to be one here in Carlisle PA. Blue with a White low top. Seats, 119k, IMMACULATE condition. Carpet is still in the bed and in excellent shape the original seats have no stains, rips or cuts, not a ding dent or anything. Oh yeah and it is RUST FREE!!!! Asking price is $4995.

I don't know if it qualifies as "weird" but I wouldn't mind a VW Corrado in yellow another limited run car with very unique looks.

2 years ago I would say a TT but now too many other cars look like it so it isn't that unique anymore.

If that BRATs as clean as you say, it might acctually be worth that price.


I would add the Corrado to my list too, but not as wired as just unique.

Saw this one a while ago...the owner has turned down offers of $36,000 (USD) probably because it only has 7,000 original kilometers (about 4350 miles)
