Via ABG: Nerd Alert! Geo Metro: the new "it" car?

It's a post about how the gas misers of old are commanding higher and higher prices.

The example car is a '93 XFi with low miles (22k) - a little old lady car that sold on eBay for $7k. Wow. That's got to be close to what it cost new!

My '98 has less than half that many miles on it. Think I could sell it for 7 big ones?

See similar post of the eBay barn find: '89 CRX all original with 34k miles.
