I wonder how he acquired a running driving rx8 for $500.

More of that story here: http://blog.caranddriver.com/lemons-...-penalty-laps/

The 'claim' that it was 'washed ashore in CA some time after the Japanese Tsunami.

I have trouble believing the claim though, as it is very clearly left hand drive :lol:

godesshunter 04-22-2012 03:10 PM

That and I doubt it would float all the way across the pacific.

I lived in Japan for three years and there are a few left hand drive import (American or European) cars on the road. However, the city that was devistated by the tsunami is a small community, although close in proximity to Tokyo, I would agree with RIWWP that the BMW X3 didn't wash away from Japan. Well, any of you know where Godzilla came from?

X3? That was an RX-8, which wouldn't be an "import" from Japan's perspective. The only reasonable way a LHD RX-8 would be in Japan would be if it somehow never made it on the boat to get exported (exception, someone missed a number, etc...).


This is ignoring the complete lunacy of thinking someone would buy the "floated across the Pacific" story. :lol:

Grace_Excel 04-23-2012 05:01 PM

:wallbash: I guess I was looking at the X3 photo in the shoreline and didn't read the link in the post above...

Would have been nice to have the keys for any of the cars that had a security system installed to see if they still worked after being crushed
