What's the Quirkiest Car For $25,000?

TL;DR

Doug DeMuro lists 10 genuinely bizarre cars all buyable for under $25,000 using real Cars and Bids sale prices.

Key Points

• 1.Vanderhall Venice – A luxury three-wheel open-air car with ~200hp GM turbo four-cylinder, selling for $15,000–$20,000; absurd combination of quality leather and bug-like ridiculousness
• 2.AM General Humvee – Decommissioned military vehicles, street-titled in some states, selling around $15,000; one camper-converted medic Humvee sold for just $15K
• 3.Autozam AZ-1 – Tiny Japanese K-car with gullwing doors, surprisingly fun to drive, selling right around $24,400 on Cars and Bids about a year ago
• 4.Lotus Esprit Turbo – Mid-80s to early-90s turbo four-cylinder version looks like a Lamborghini but drives like an Elise; one sold on Cars and Bids for $20,000
• 5.Plymouth Prowler – Hot rod-styled retro car that somehow passed modern safety regulations; a purple, 7,000-mile example sold for $24,000; Doug considers them massively undervalued
• 6.JDM Toyota Land Cruiser Fire Truck – A 60-series Land Cruiser with a Japanese fire apparatus grafted on the back, right-hand drive, sold for just $10,500 due to low demand
