The second car posted to good old DT was a 2000 Honda S2000. That car was a silver S2000 for sale in Denver, CO with 80K miles and needing a new top for a $11,200 ask. Fast forward 5 years and here is a 28K mile cream puff for your compare and contrast pleasure. Find this 2000 Honda S2000 for sale in San Diego, CA for $21,500 via craigslist.

The first car posted to DT back in 2012 was a silver on black 1999 E36 BMW M3 on Craigslist in Glendale, CA listed for $7,400. In it, our intrepid E-i-C talked about how since the E30 values have increased, the old magic of depreciation has made the following generation E36 of M3 a deal. Question for the readership: still the case 5 years on? Find this 1999 BMW M3 for sale in San Jose, CA for $10,995 via craigslist. This post is part of DT's 5th Birthday Celebration.
Can you believe that Daily Turismo has been around for 5 years? I can't! It seems like only yesterday that DT was a little bald baby sitting in my lap and throwing up on me, but not it talks back, swears, and spends most of the afternoon in time-out. Anyway, DT is turning 5 years old on Monday July 17th, so we are going to do 5 days of awesome 5s. Yup. All things 5. Expect lots of BMWs 5ers, maybe some 5 year old cars...cars for 5 year olds, 5ths of bourbon...etc. Let's kick it off with a retro DT badge and some 5-spoke alloys with a 5-lug wheel.
Get
a little reckless in the garage from time to time? Get the itch to start your
own for-profit fire department? Find this 1965
Chevrolet Fire Truck on craigslist on John’s Island, SC
for a completely undisclosed price. This post is part of DT's 2016 Birthday Celebration of 100 cars; enjoy the ride!
It has been almost 4 years since this website stormed out into the wild and declared to the world in a loud voice: WE FEATURE THE BESTEST CARS ON THE INTERWEBS. In those 4 years, DT might not be as popular as a 4 day old web phone game about Pokemon, but at least DT hasn't caused car accidents. Anything someone might do in a DT purchased car is never an accident and almost certainly on purpose.

Y is for Yugoslavian, a household term synonymous with high manufacturing standards and reliability. Indeed, following Yugo's lauded introduction to the U.S. Market in 1986, the sales success of Yugoslavian imports put pressure on the Big Three domestic automakers to increase their build quality and fuel efficiency. And now, an all-original example can be yours for under $3,000. Find this 1987 Yugo GV in San Antonio, TX for $2,400 via craigslist.
Having plumbed the depths of the K-Car and now nearing the end of
the alphabet its only appropriate that we head straight for the nadir
of the auto industry. The 1980's X cars from GM. X is for xactly what the doctor didn't order, which is what the X-Body cars of the
1980's were from GM. The steam rising from that pile of xcrement was the
Citation X-11. Find this one-family owned 1983 Chevrolet Citation X-11
waiting for you, staged beside a waterway, owned by some guy who has
at least a four car garage and a lift and loves classics, like his X-11, which he's offering to you for what has to be a record setting high price of $6,395.
