eBay Challenge: How Much Horsepower Can You Get For $1,000?
eBay Challenge: How Much Horsepower Can You Get For $1,000?-December 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:46

Recently, I was asked why I don't post things to reflect the car-buying wallet of the extremely cash-strapped enthusiast. Since I'm not one to back down from a challenge, but am extremely lazy, I'll ask the ever-vigilant internet horde to find me the car on eBay with the most horsepower, for a whopping $1000 budget.

Selections aren't limited to simply 'cars' (kit cars, trucks, and military/commercial vehicles included)Cars must have a realistic selling price under $1,000. Completed and sold listings can be included. You can add modifications, as long as it doesn't go over the total budget.Write a short reason why your car is deserving of "most horsepower.

I'll arrange the best selections for your viewing pleasure, if I don't get kicked out of Starbucks for using their Wi-Fi and buying nothing.
