mike spinelli: hey, welcome to avery special road testament. we're doing best used cars inthe world, five grand edition. mike and zac from classic carclub manhattan are with me to help figure out what you guyssent us in, and to argue over the top four, which youguys also picked. hit us up on at drive,of course, on twitter and facebook. we are drivetv on facebook. but that's it.
that's all we're goingto talk about. see you guys later. good night. now, i wanted to point outthat i am now in my-- michael prichinello: yourexecutive race chair? mike spinelli: in myevil doctor chair. and you guys are in your--but we're in our-- michael prichinello: it'svery conan of you. mike spinelli: it's--yeah, you like that?
michael prichinello: at leasti don't have an old guy on a couch next to me. mike spinelli: see? exactly. zac moseley: and we thoughtnothing of the chair until you sat down and said, don'tbe intimidated by my thinking chair. [interposing voices] michael prichinello: no, no.
it's like, i know last time youguys talked a lot, but i just want you to knowi have a big chair. mike spinelli: somebodymentioned our set was a little grim. so i just said, it's not grim. it's north korea chic. michael prichinello: you know,last time i was on, somebody said i was gay for wearingbracelets. so--
mike spinelli: you know what? michael prichinello: you know. some people. mike spinelli: braceletsare awesome. anyway, whatever. so $5,000 cars. i know you guys havesome opinions. michael prichinello: yeah. you know, we're actually reallywell suited for this.
and i was excited to come. because at the classic car club,we buy $250,000 cars. we buy $125,000 cars. and the truth is that stuff'sall really easy. buying a $5,000 car-- there's actually a lotof them out there. and i actually think a lot ofthem are more interesting than brand new gallardosand things. and i know that soundsobnoxious.
mike spinelli: no, it's-- michael prichinello: $5,000 carsare made to have fun in. and there's a lot of them. mike spinelli: exactly. and the cool thing about thatis you can get 30 years of cool cars for $5,000. like you can only-- if you're going to spend$250,000 or something, you only have four or fivecars to choose from.
of course, you have a worldof high-end stuff. but $5,000, you can get a carthat was $40,000 20 years ago. michael prichinello: noteven 40 years ago. you look at some cars, m5s,those are just dropping off cliffs and they'restill great cars. they're not $5,000 yet. zac moseley: like a v12 xjs. mike spinelli: yes, exactly. zac moseley: $5,000, sparemoney for a shotgun.
so you can give it a properdeath when it's done. michael prichinello: we weresaying actually, we could do classic car club versionof this. so you join, youdrive our cars. and then when you're done, youbring them back, and you take something else. but zac wants to do-- mike spinelli: it'slike a library. a car library.
michael prichinello: it'slike a car library. zac moseley: i want to do hipcar instead of zip car. so it's all [bleep] old cars that are kindof cool and quirky. and if you break down, ourrecovery system is used. get a guy that says,yeah, man. there's a grinder in the trunk,couple screwdrivers. pop off all the vin platesand leave it where it is. just not worth towing it back.
if you paid $800 for it-- mike spinelli: ilove that idea. zac moseley: --why are you goingto pay $900 towing it back to the city for? michael prichinello: solet's talk five gs. mike spinelli: so let'stalk five gs. i just want to get right to thetop four that people said. michael prichinello:these are from your listeners and viewers.
mike spinelli: this is fromour viewers all around the world, by the way. michael prichinello: theseare going to be good. because you have a sophisticatedviewing audience, by the way. mike spinelli: yeah, except thatultimately these are-- no, no. nothing against our audience. but ultimately these are theones that always come up.
michael prichinello: right. mike spinelli: right? so they must be awesome. zac moseley: right. michael prichinello: startingfrom number four, porsche 944. ok. let's go through them all. michael prichinello: yup. mike spinelli: mustang gt.
probably late fox. zac moseley: fox body. michael prichinello: yeah,that's on my list. zac moseley: that five liter. probably a few spare bucksfrom some nos. mike spinelli: indeed. a hundred shot of nos extra. a e30 bmw. michael prichinello:all day long.
mike spinelli: of course. all day long. always on there. and-- michael prichinello: sorry. go through the list. i just get excited. mike spinelli: and firstgen to early second gen mazda miata.
by the way, mazda miata,number one. the number one mostmentioned car. because awesome per dollar interms of handling, in terms of usability and ease of useand ease of ownership and all that stuff. michael prichinello: you know,we also, amongst our many motorsport endeavors, we'repretty proficient in 24 hours of lemons racers. so we've done this with $500.
like, what do youbuy for $500? and miatas continuallykick ass in any 24 hours lemons race. you're talking about 10%of what you're asking. zac moseley: those guys can'tpossibly buy those things for $500, though. with all the cars getting turnedinto race cars, they have to be cheating. michael prichinello: we shouldbuy from them then.
keep them honest. mike spinelli: well, you've gotto buy them scotch, and you've got to bribe thejudges and all that. michael prichinello:still, though. you could get a reallynice one. $5,000? i think miata's probably justthe best car on the list. except for e30 bmw. mike spinelli: yeah. so let's scrutinize that list.
and let's go through someof the other ones. because i think thereare a lot a more interesting cars arguably. maybe not better to drive, but alot of more interesting cars down on the list. michael prichinello: temporaryfascinations. so mustang gt. let's just start there. horse power per dollar--
michael prichinello: i actuallythink-- so that fox body mustang had somebad pr for a while. it was like vanilla ice screwedit for everybody. mike spinelli: he did. he certainly did. michael prichinello: and i thinkthat they've all just decayed like lancia betasor something like that. because you really don'tsee them on the road. but when i do see one,i'm like, that's
still pretty cool. and i don't know if it'sbecause i'm the right age for that. zac moseley: yeah, i would sayguys in our generation consistently-- you and i had the same story. it's the first car wewent truly fast in. michael prichinello: oh, yeah. zac moseley: i had aguy, a friend of a
friend who's older. and he was in the navy. he came back with one he'dbeen drag racing. and he's like, oh, yeah. let me take you for aspin in this thing. and like, he hit the gas. everything went blurry. i just saw like the tach lightgoing, and trees flying by. it was amazing.
michael prichinello: it's likethe last muscle car before electronics really startedto play a part. so i think you buy one for-- youcould get one for $4,000-- you could spend a littlebit of money on making it your own. it's ford. so the parts are-- mike spinelli: andthe thing about-- something about the mustang gtthat the z 28 of the time, the
hot camaro of the timedidn't have-- and you could argue all day longabout ford versus chevy. mike spinelli: but there'ssomething that the-- and i think maybe it wasthe smaller size. michael prichinello: i'lltell you what it is. if you have a z 28 back in theday, you were like a college prep kid, right? and your parents boughtyou a nice car. mike spinelli: backin the day, yeah.
michael prichinello: if you hada fox body mustang, your girlfriend's mom wasn'treally gonna dig you. and she probably still won't. the effect will be multipliedover time. but that's how nice-- mike spinelli: andyou're right. michael prichinello: that'sgood, though. that means your girlwill like you more. look, you're right.
culturally, you could bringa lot to the mustang. if you were a total guido or amullet head, you could bring your sort of crazy jersey shoreattitude to it, and it'll amplify that. or you could bring your whitetrash mullet thing, and it'll totally amplify that. michael prichinello: or yourracing for papers thing. mike spinelli: racingfor papers thing. your shaved head, tribaltat thing.
and like that. so whatever you brought to themustang gt, it adapted to. michael prichinello:douchebaggetry? mike spinelli: yes, butdon't let that-- you can't let that affect-- michael prichinello: actually,if someone rolled into the club with one today, i'd belike, you have to give me the keys for ten minutes. i'd really want todrive that car.
last time i drove one was 1998,something like that. mike spinelli: greatsound too. the other thing is thatbubbly, burbly-- michael prichinello: especiallyyou get that hollow can sound that fords have. mike spinelli: it was thatmanifold set up that they had. it was really even. it wasn't like-- i think all the--
i don't want to get into thetech stuff that i don't know. but where the intake runnerswere all about the same size, right? michael prichinello: yeah,that's [inaudible]. mike spinelli: so it soundedreally even. and it kind of had thathollow burble. [mimicking engine sounds] mike spinelli: anyway,all right. obviously, it's not thehandler of this group.
michael prichinello: no. mike spinelli: but it is thehorsepower fun per dollar. michael prichinello: listen,the world these days isn't great anyway. you'll just get to thenext set of red lights a little quicker. it's cool. mike spinelli: all right. so we'll get to themiata last.
we'll just go throughquickly through e30. obviously, e30 one of the bestbalanced, one of the best put together cars of that era. michael prichinello: youknow, for $5,000-- i'm not a convertibleguy by any stretch. unless it's a car that reallyshould be run like a tr6 or something like that. and i kind of feel like an e303 series is actually ok as a convertible.
mike spinelli: roll bar. need a roll bar. if you put a roll bar on, youcan almost get away with it. i don't know, but like-- michael prichinello:i'm thinking of a good hamptons cruiser. i'm not a hamptons guy,but i'm thinking-- zac moseley: yeah, i know. but they look like they havea [interposing voices]
michael prichinello:i know, i know. i'm trying to diversify. because everything, i'm alwayslike, let's put a cage in it and a bigger motor. you know? mike spinelli: well, the onegood thing about convertibles. michael prichinello:i like a flat line. that's what it is. you know what it is.
it's got that nicelittle box shape. it's one of the few convertiblesto me that-- gran turismo models,gran turismo convertible, the new one? michael prichinello: i wouldn'tbuy one, but i think that's a nice lookingconvertible. mike spinelli: well, one goodthing about the convertibles is that they're cheaperin a lot of cases. so if you do--
well, well not maybein this realm. but a 911 cabrio of the'80s is cheaper. so you can get in easier. michael prichinello: becausethey're [bleep]. mike spinelli: well,they're [bleep]. because-- michael prichinello: becausethey're convertibles. mike spinelli: and they'reconvertibles. and they're bendy and flexy.
michael prichinello: it's whereall the mechanisms to make it go power. zac moseley: even, like, classicmustangs are cheaper. it's amazing. mike spinelli: it's true. michael prichinello: buton the e30, though. i think it's one of thegreatest chassis ever. we were actually just talkingabout that two weeks ago. mike spinelli: and speakingof lemons, right?
it's probably the most popularlemons car right now. zac moseley: yeah? mike spinelli: just because ofthe cheapness, or the economy per handling. zac moseley: i thinkit's trying to carry through its legend. it's the winningest-most lemonscar at the moment now. mike spinelli: is it really? zac moseley: well, maybe.
it won the last race here. mike spinelli: it won the lastone that i was at in jersey. michael prichinello: m3sare the most winning-- zac moseley: winningest-mostchassis in road racing. mike spinelli: there you go. it's continuing. well, the other thing. so the only issue when you'regoing for five grand for an e30 is that i drove inlemons in a 325e.
michael prichinello:yeah, you did. mike spinelli: so that's theone with the long stroke. and its torqueier. zac moseley: goodfuel economy. mike spinelli: good fueleconomy, obviously. but it revs out to,like 4,000, 4,500. it's like driving a diesel. so i think we blew the motorjust because we weren't used to not revving thehell out of it.
michael prichinello: wehad the same fate that race, you and me. we both grenaded a motor. late in the race. zac moseley: should we putopel on the list, then? mike spinelli: by theway, opel gt, right. that's a whole other [bleep]. we can get to that. michael prichinello: witha mazda rotary engine.
zac moseley: see, as much as ilove the e30, i found a e36 m3 that you could get for $5,000. mike spinelli: did you really? zac moseley: four doorsedan, yeah. mike spinelli: so i would justsay the level of difficulty might be a little higheron something like that. because if you get a highmileage one, you've got to be a little handy. zac moseley: yeah.
well, there's definitely-- on all these cars. you can go back and categorizethe kind of stuff you get. you only get the most fun for$5,000 and not spend any more money if you go buy a honda. and then if you want to go alittle more interesting, you get a volkswagen golf. and then you get into all the,oh, yeah, it's only $5,000. but then you realize you spend$10,000 on two years of
maintenance. mike spinelli: that'sthe porsche 944. 944, the bmws, mercedes. i mean, this would bean awesome car. four door m3 for askingprice, $4,500. man, it's less than $5,000. mike spinelli: that'spretty good. zac moseley: i thought i wasgoing to have to negotiate. michael prichinello: walkout the door, $4,000.
so there you go. there's something elsefor the list. so let's add e36. all right. so e30, e36. and even if it's not an m3,you can get $5,000 325s. michael prichinello: they'restill great cars. mike spinelli: you may not getthe s's, so we were talking about this before.
so you can get a 325i. maybe you won't get areally good 325is. zac moseley: yeah. but you'llalso never get an e30 m3 because they've beenmore collectible. e36 is still under the radar. mike spinelli: that's true. so you can get yourself thatm back under $5,000. so porsche 944 real quick. great car, great balance.
not the quickest car. michael prichinello: notthe prettiest either. mike spinelli: eh,it's all right. really? i kind of like the944's shape. it's always been a kind of-- it's not so porsche-y. zac moseley: it has a littlebit of the box flare thing. mike spinelli: yeah, it'slike a little box flare.
you're right. michael prichinello: ifeel like it needs 10 more years to age. it'll come back andlook cool again. mike spinelli: perhaps. but also, a car that you mightend up spending another five grand per year. so i would add an uglier porscheto the list, a 914. mike spinelli: ok, all right.
michael prichinello: ugly,but very cheap. there's a vw motorin that thing. i mean, you could be a realfledgling mechanic and do the work on that, i think. zac moseley: drop the motorand rebuild it. mike spinelli: yeah, exactly. and you know, those type fourmotors or whatever the-- was that the vw type four. zac moseley: yeah, yeah.
mike spinelli: i saw a dunebuggy with one of those hanging off the back. that's like a big volkswagen. mike spinelli: you could getsome power out of those. so even if you did start outnot knowing a lot, they're kind of easy to work on. i guess you could-- michael prichinello: youcould grow into them. mike spinelli: you couldgrow into that.
zac moseley: and when you buildthat power out of those things, they're ear-splittinglyloud too, we have a 550 spiderwith a hopped up version of that motor. and it, like, blows youreardrums out every time you drive it. michael prichinello: i'd belying if i didn't say a 914 hasn't passed me onthe track before. mike spinelli: wow.
michael prichinello: on thetrack days and stuff. some guys, they just-- it's a bit of a cult,that car. and you start addinga lot to it. it weighs nothing. zac moseley: we have a friendwith a twin turbo one that's over 1,000 horsepower. crap. michael prichinello: i'mnot driving that.
so let's just mention thisreal quick, because we've already mentioned it. and first gen mazda miata. michael prichinello: yeah,it's a great car. mike spinelli: obviously,you want the engine upgrade, right? because they wentto 1.8 liter. and then they added alittle bit more-- they stiffened it up for thelast couple of years before--
michael prichinello:shrunk the fuel tank on it too, right? so i'm going to still say firstgen, just because i like the look of it. it's the godfather, isn't it? that brought that whole britishmotoring thing back to the planet. mike spinelli: and it's just aneasy, easy car to own and drive fast.
and you can throw coil overs onan do a [inaudible] cross. and it's just a very, verycool thing to do. michael prichinello: speakingof, could you get a boxer for $5,000? you must be able to. mike spinelli: you couldget a boxer for 5,000 pounds in the uk. so let's add that for theuk as five grand. because we've been kind of--
michael prichinello:the miata sort of brought the boxer back. zac moseley: actually, iremember an article, though. i think it was on jalopnik. a kid that did a trade up fromhis bicycle to a boxer. he did. he just traded a bike. it took him a yearor something. that was a very cool story.
michael prichinello: hecreated an iphone, i think at one point. mike spinelli: yeah.he went iphone to-- zac moseley: --bikes and thendirt bikes and then-- michael prichinello: i thinka boxer's a great one. ok, so-- michael prichinello: iwouldn't drive one. mike spinelli: that'sthe top four. so let's go-- these are someof the other ones that we--
so matt farah. michael prichinello:ah, matt farah. mike spinelli: matt farah. who also gave us a couple ofthe other ones that are already in this list. subaru impreza 2.5 rs,all-wheel drive. michael prichinello: awesome. zac moseley: awesome. mike spinelli: i'm goingto say awesome.
and it's an awesomecar. $5,000? michael prichinello: ihave it on my list. mike spinelli: you havethat on your list? michael prichinello: i madea list before i came. michael prichinello: it'snot as scientific as mr. spinelli's over there. but i do have-- i have it on here somewhere. mike spinelli: seriously, thatwas a hell of a car.
but i'm a little concerned. with what i've seen for$5,000 of those, it's like 156,000 miles. michael prichinello: it'sprobably been beaten on a bit. mike spinelli: beatenon a bit. michael prichinello:but whatever. it's japanese, four-wheeldrive, fox motor. it's a very cool car. michael prichinello: well,once we're talking about
$5,000, you have to have alevel of tolerance for-- well, why'd you putit on your list? like what personally-- michael prichinello: i likecertain categories of cars. i love the subaru-evo battle. i like that. right now we have anevo in the fleet. and i think it's betterthan the new subarus. but the old subarusi really love.
they have race heritage. you could drive themas a young kid. you could drive themas an older guy. they're just greatdriver cars. michael prichinello: if youwant to learn how to drive well, buy one of thoseand practice a bit. i think they're reallycool driver cars. they're close to track carsright out of the box. zac moseley: for me, i wascoming out of college just
when they came out. and one kid got one asa graduation present. i was like, that's thecoolest thing ever. the gold wheels, and the2.5 rs, and the wing. mike spinelli: andit was cool. it was still a little-- itwasn't really overbearing to look at back then. i mean, you are a bit about-- people used to have thewhole fanboy thing.
mike spinelli: it'sa little, yeah. if you got it in the blue, ifyou got it in the subaru blue. michael prichinello: youknow what, though? who cares about that. mike spinelli: it's cool. who cares? michael prichinello:it's a great car. it's a great car to drive. i don't care what anyone says.
what do you got? what's-- zac moseley: on my list? mike spinelli: what'son your list? zac moseley: well,i went through categorically with you. but then, go on craigslist. max out at $5,000 and putin classic and see what you come up with.
mike spinelli: ok. zac moseley: i came up with 1972cheyenne pickup truck. michael prichinello: that-- mike spinelli: that is sucha dark horse on this list. michael prichinello: you'remissing the category. mike spinelli: no,but seriously. like the two non-sports-car carsthat came up the most-- pickups, ford and chevy,and the crown vic. we have crown vic too.
mike spinelli: do youhave crown vic too? so we'll get to the crownvic in a second. but pickup. zac moseley: yeah,that pickup. i mean, a chevy 350. there's got to be, like,800 million of those engines around. so they're pretty easy to fix. michael prichinello: $100.
zac moseley: they workreally well. they'll do 300,000miles no problem. and that one had a 10,000mile motor and a fresh transmission. it's like a brand new truck. with only 70,000 miles on itoriginally for $5,000. actually, he wasasking $4,400. mike spinelli: that'sa good spot. zac moseley: and the next onedown on that was a '72 bronco.
mike spinelli: wait a minute. michael prichinello:we're big fans of-- mike spinelli: can you get a-- michael prichinello:--vintage broncos. mike spinelli: no. because broncos, thatera of broncos have gone through the roof. michael prichinello: they'vebecome popular. they're like the e30m3 of trucks.
michael prichinello: yeah, ithink that there's two kinds out there on the market. or maybe three kinds. there's the kind that'ssuper done, whatever. there's also the kind that'sbeen owned by a guy for a little bit, he's taken care ofit, needs something new. and then there are the peoplewho just have one laying around and don't thinkmuch of it. zac moseley: it's even a v8.
it's got a 302 in it. mike spinelli: it does. it's lifted a little. not too much. $5,000 in base-- well,that's long island. michael prichinello: we haveno 2002 bmws on there. mike spinelli: itwas mentioned. it's on the list down. but we didn't get toomany mentions.
that's an interesting one. michael prichinello:it's a good car. fun car. we put e30 m3 motors in ours. mike spinelli: ofcourse you did. michael prichinello:it's a better car. but straight up, they're cool. michael prichinello: i haveanother categorically different one.
only because i'm kindof on the hunt. and i think you personallywill appreciate this one. so i enjoy doing motorcycletractors. mike spinelli: right. michael prichinello: so we havea truck and a trailer. which is good for a car. but for a bike, i reallydon't need it. so i'm looking for, like,a molester van. mike spinelli: likea brown bunny van?
michael prichinello: ace ofspades window on the back. for $5,000, you'retaken care of. there's thousands ofoptions, really. and listen, it sounds funny,but i don't know. mike spinelli: like a dodgetradesman '72 br-- michael prichinello: howmany kids in high school watch this? i'm sure a lot, right? like, your friends are alldriving around in hondas or
their dad's last escort,something crappy like that. go get yourself a properscary van. mike spinelli: did you ever seethose guys in japan that, like, kick out thosevan for track days? michael prichinello:i saw one at-- oh, no. i was talking about thecrazy body kits that they put on them. mike spinelli: dude,they drop them.
no, not even the body kits. they take a regular tradesmanor dodge ram van, right? american van. drop it. put those [inaudible] wheels on it and track them. by the way, here'sa dark horse. ford focus svt. michael prichinello: yeah,that's a great choice.
really-- michael prichinello: that comefrom an english viewer? mike spinelli: it came froman american viewer. because in the uk, theydidn't get the svt. they've gotten all kinds-- zac moseley: the svtwas the american. mike spinelli: svt was as closeas we got to the rs or st, i guess, previous generationst. mercedes 190e, cosworth, 2.3 16 valve.
and the only reason i mentionthis is i saw one that went for $4,700 with a fairlyrecently rebuilt motor. michael prichinello: i thinkthat's one of those cars that has a really good brandand nostalgia. but i'd rather get an e30. just a straight e30. mike spinelli: that's themercedes version of the e30. and again, a hard one totake care of if you don't know what you're--
michael prichinello: especiallywhen you have a motor by cosworth, a carby a different brand. i know it's brilliantwhen you bought it. but a couple of decadeslater, you're going to have some problems. mike spinelli: quicklyon the crown vic. crown vic is just bulletproof. michael prichinello: it'sa battle axe, isn't it? mike spinelli: it'sa battle axe.
it's the battle axe of cars. michael prichinello: what aboutthe whole category of muscle cars in general? mike spinelli: well, the problemwith that-- see, the problem i've been having withthat is that $5,000-- michael prichinello:maintenance. mike spinelli: maintenance-ish. michael prichinello: you can geta four door, six cylinder. the problem is that becausethey're being bought up by
nostalgia buyers, the pricesjust keep going crazy. for a really good-- you haveto go like $8,500 to get a really good mustang now. i mean you guys buymore cars than-- zac moseley: not necessarily. someone sent me a six-cylinder'65 coupe the other day. he was like, oh, youshould buy it. it's practically free. michael prichinello: it'sa bit of a hairdresser
[inaudible]. zac moseley: and itwas like $4,700. mike spinelli: wellthat six cylinder. it's like you're driving aford falcon, basically. michael prichinello: which iscooler than driving a camry. mike spinelli: it is stillcooler than driving a camry. michael prichinello: $5,000. i'm going to go througha couple more. let's see.
sierra cosworth forour uk viewers. but also merkur xr4ti. cool. hard to find here in anydecent condition. but maybe in the uk. michael prichinello: probablyhave a blown head gasket. mike spinelli: blownhead gasket. i mean, in the uk, you'dprobably find a sierra cosworth probably--
maybe better. and maybe 5,000 poundsfor a good one. michael prichinello:right, right. mike spinelli: fordcontour svt. that's another weird one. i'm a little. it's a great train car,as we call them. mike spinelli: train car. right, exactly.
michael prichinello: get tothe station, that thing'll last you forever. mike spinelli: you know, i wishi knew more about the peugeots, 206 and 306. yeah, no. not for $5,000. yeah, well. i'm zac moseley: someone rantwo of them in lemons.
matching. michael prichinello:yeah, they did. mike spinelli: really? michael prichinello: i thinkyou'll spend probably $1,000 a year just making it roll. mike spinelli: and let's see. oh. one that i forgot. because we haven't--other than in
the japanese category-- 240sx. zac moseley: and then alongthat lines, i found a datsun 510 wagon. mike spinelli: a wagon? mike spinelli: for $5,000? mike spinelli: see, because the510s are being snapped up left and right. zac moseley: but right,there was a 260, there
