my 2 cents, id say they are too cheap, to justify my ad its the hours and weeks and months of hard work and lost pay checks every payday to make it better and better only to sell it for a fraction of what you bought and spent on it, those ebay ads arent very good examples they are just absolute extremes, its good they are expensive it makes them a car for Enthusists otherwise it wouldnt be such a rarity to see one, and i dont know about everyone else but the joy when you see a fellow ae86 driver whilst driving your own is overwhelming you cant help but wave, and for some reason everyone who ownes one is friendly, if they were cheap and common they would probably be like a skyline and silvia and you wouldnt feel the same and wave excitedly out the window. and youd say oh look another 86 (sarcasitcally) i dont want one because everyone has them. and im sure if they were cheap wankers would drive them.
