Default New Car.

Well, new to us, anyway.

Its a 1992 Plymouth Laser RS. 6-bolt motor, turbocharged, AWD, LSD, AC, power everything.

The car belonged to one of my dad's customers, and since the car was new, my dad has done all of the work, with the exception of the new clutch a few months ago because my dad had his shoulder rebuilt.

The car got a new turbo and ECU in 2004, and the new clutch late last year. The interior looks like it just came off the showroom, and it runs great. The only physical issue with the car, is the owners son backed into a jeep, and it dented in the RR quarter panel, which you can see in the pictures. Im going to see about getting it popped back out, and even though there will be some creases in the metal, that would be better than the huge dent...

Its got the typical early 90s chrysler paint, so the clear has turned white in places, but you can see from the pictures that it doesnt look bad, and there is almost no rust anywhere on the car.

Looks like a fun ride. How many cars do you guys have now? An even better question is; How many cars does 2 people need?

as cheap as i got it, anyone would have purchased it...it cost substantially less than my TV...

this is the 8th car, but we are going to sell the daytona...plus, the ramcharger is getting old...its up over 250,000 miles now...and it gets awful mileage. i dont expect great mileage from the laser, but it will be better than the 6 i get with the truck.

i dont need the money right now...i need the car...

its in bad enough shape (the paint) that i dont mind driving it in the snow, but its nice enough that i enjoy having it as a DD, where as my old truck is slow and VERY bad on gas...
