Yawner Japanese sedans with an autolethargic transmission don’t make many appearances here, but there is the odd exception. As usual, the unicorn factor strikes again, because when’s the last time you saw a Mitsubishi Tredia with 37,000 miles on it? Were you even a glint in your daddy’s eye? Or too busy buying white aviator shades to go with your white leather man-dals? Either way, it’s a rare sight, and it’s also striking how similar this looks to the contemporary Camry. Actually, this looks like someone put a first-generation Camry in a blender with a splash of Renault Alliance and a soupcon of Renault Medallion to come up with a perfectly anonymous sedan. Nonetheless, it’s pretty cool to see one that’s still so youthful in miles. Check out this 1985 Mitsubishi Tredia for sale for $2000 in Novato, CA.

The Un-Camry – 1985 Mitsubishi Tredia
August 1, 2015$499 for Eight Speeds – 1984 Dodge Colt DL
June 28, 2015There’s something really satisfying about buying a whole car – something for which someone once probably took a loan, and on which they made payments – for the price of something like, say, a domestic airfare or a TV. Yet if you set your expectations correctly, you can definitely do this, and if you’re lucky, you can even find something less bland than your neighbor’s old ’87 Tercel EZ with 234,000 miles. Of course, it may just be that the thing making the car less bland is just a gimmick, but hey, when you’re dealing with 3-digit prices you’ll get your money’s worth after only a few weeks! Check out this 1984 Dodge Colt DL for sale for $499 in Port Orchard, WA.

You can find this 1986 Mitsubishi Starion Turbo for sale in the San Fernando Valley, CA for a mere $2750.
