NOT MY AD. FOUND ON CRAIGSLIST.
Looks like it's from an auto-recycler. Maybe useful for someone on here.

Cheers.

Cheap, but certainly the nastiest Blitz I've seen. Most of the Blitz units we are seeing now are going on to at least their third owner. I would trust most of them about half as far as I could throw them.

Just saw this bad boy too! Awesome price, but definitly looks used and abused from the photos. (cracked intake manifold?!)

Buyer beware for sure!

$224 seems in line with what other non-Yaris S/C go for in similar condition. I'd consider it a parts S/C body/internals and if it's all good, bonus. The whole engine is probably the better buy.

The cracked manifold is probably from when the car was crashed so not hugely concerning to me unless brackets are bent. At least you know it ran well enough to crash ;)
Cheers.
