This next Reader Ride comes to us from Dennis who found the car via an article DT published in August of this year...so it is more of a Buyer Story.  The subject vehicle is a fantastically clean 1979 RX-7 Limited purchased for a great price, read the story in the buyer's own words below:

Buyer Story: Jeff's 1975 BMW 2002

If you emailed to buy the $2500 BMW 2002 that was featured on Saturday and the seller said it was gone, well you can thank DT reader Oakland Jeff, who saw it featured here, and without hesitation, bought it.  In his own words: Thanks DT, I didn't even know I wanted one till I saw this post. Picked it up this morning and it's awesome!

High School Sweatheart 240Z Update: A Buyer Story

The long time owned 1972 Datsun 240Z featured a few days back was picked up by DT reader/commenter Ryan M who sent us a very nice and detailed follow up, which is published here in its entirety.  Thanks for the pic and update Ryan!

I started my Z hunt in December of 2013. Well, let me back up. I started my Z hunt in 1991. This was the year that I became aware of them through my uncle who had a few he used to race. Being a 10 year old on a limited budget was prohibitive to purchasing cars however, so I stuck with Hot Wheels and Matchbox until it became financially viable to go after the real thing.

Buyer Success Story: 1985 Volvo 245 DL Wagon

A few weeks back we featured a 1985 Volvo 245 DL wagon with 4-speed+OD manual gearbox sold by the original owner for a single bit coin (or $1000).  This car was picked up by DT reader Andrew M for his son (who picked the Volvo over a 4X4 Toyota pickup - great kid!) and it looks like another happy tale of cheap motoring for a family man.

Buyer Story: 1966 Ford Falcon Wagon

The 1966 Ford Falcon Wagon we featured back in March was purchased by reader Jeff S. and he sent us an update about the car.  We find these kind of buyer stories interesting and hope our readers do too.  When he bought it, the Falcon had been on/off craigslist and ebay for a while but Jeff picked it up and has already dug into making it a good daily driver.  Full story after the jump.

Buyer Story: Savannastang: 1979 Mazda RX-7 w/5.0 V8 Swap

 We love getting emails from people who purchased a car on the Daily Turismo because it gives us closure about cars that we wanted to buy.  The cars on these pages aren't featured because we are getting some massive kickbacks from sellers, they are here because we think they are awesome and would want to drive them.  This is certainly the case for the 1979 Mazda RX-7 w/5.0 V8 swap featured in January 2013 and we recently recieved a nice email with photos from its new owner, Alex N.
