BUMP!
Still available my friends, it may be a stock car but it's dirt cheap, and in remarkable condition considering its low kms.
For a small car, it's got a lot of standard features that even modern small cars usually don't have, including air con, 4-wheel disc brakes, ABS, power windows and mirrors, fog lights, sway bar suspension, alloy wheels, and of course that wonderful turbo engine with top mounted intercooler.
The Starlet GT is one of those cars that you will never truly appreciate until you have owned one, it really is like a mini-WRX, right from its looks with the bonnet scoop and squared off headlamps with fog lights, to its lightening fast acceleration from the lights, and plenty of grunt when climbing those hills on the freeway around Gosford!
I was stuck in traffic in Newcastle a few months ago, and a parade of "Hot-4s" from Sydney was driving past, prob about 12 cars in all with their shinied up chrome rims and big exhausts; anyway, they ALL slowed right down to check out the Starlet, as if the'd all just seen an alien, I could almost read their collective minds saying "man, where do I get me one of those...!"
HPI magazine used one as a project car in their early days, and wouldn't stop raving about it; it officially is their most highly recommended small car, along with the Mazda Familia turbo.
It would make a terrific daily driver, or an awesome project car.
Here are some pictures of the Doobie Speed EP82 body kit, to whet your appetite:
