1988 Toyota Starlet S

thoughts on the Starlet S?



thinking of one as a low cost, unmodified daily. (hence auto for the city)

there is one for sale on carsales.... i like it alot.

As a daily could be fun, Look pretty tidy. Not sure if id pay that much but i dont need a third car and im broke haha

should have plenty of poke for a daily driver.

thats prob the max anyone would want to pay.

[dave2221]

i wouldnt go past $4k

but its got bullshit low kms (if they are legit)
and the niceties of air con, and power steer (i have a super tight garage and need to do 3 point turns to get in/out)

so i might go check it on the weekend

That would be an awesome daily although i dont think I could stand being in a little car like that with an auto. Would be so much more fun manual

[dave2221]

true.
but i only do 7kms of stop start traffic to and from work.....

Girlfriend has a Mazda 3, so for substantial drives we would use her car.

i would never get a manual in my current position, as the traffic is just too bad for what i need a car for.

I voted yes but...
If it's only 7Km back and forth daily, then why not just get a scooter?
Just lateral thinking.

[dave2221]

cause i have to wear a suit to work, would just suck.

id go with the ep81/91 with a 4afte (16v twincam model)

Ride a bike or scooter and save money, space, yourself and the planet. Why would you drive 7km's in stop start traffic? A bike is surely faster in that situation also, just put yo suit in yo bag and wear sweat wicking clothes.
