Leaky Targa, Km's, Oil Leaks, Wheel Bearings
-im looking for a 3sge, manual, targa what is the usual price
10-15 Private : 13-25 Dealer Depends on Year, Model(Bathurst for example) etc...
for one of these both private and dealer
-fuel usage
10L/100Km's City & 8-9L/100Km's Freeway
-what do they handle compared to an ae86
No idea on comparison, but I'd liken it to driving on traintracks

thanks alchemist
leaky targa would that be due to shitty seals?
so genrally no MAJOR problems then just general wear and tear?
im looking for around 12K private i should get on in pretty good condition right?

Yup 12K would get you something pretty nice, if you could stretch yourself to 14-15K you could probably get a nice JDM import, still N/A but with leather interior, directional foglights, ABS all those funky things.
Power wise, well as of today I know that my mildly modded Gen 2 puts out 94.1kW at the wheels, which isn't too shabby
