Do We Even Need a Reason to Post a Brat?

No. No, we do not. To appease the skeptics, this is the nicest looking Brat I’ve ever seen at <i>any price</i>, let alone for a mere $2500. It’s got 120k miles, t-tops, jump seats, and AC. Keep in mind, those t-tops are glass pop-up units, arguably the pinnacle of 80s roof engineering. We dig the originality, but feel the brush guard would be nicely complemented by a set of yellow KC Daylighters with happy face covers.

    1. The 90s happened. I was to young to do anything when they went away (except maybe with the Camaro), but if the Corvette ever loses its targa roof, I'm entirely prepared to cut a bitch.
      Although, if you get a 4-door Wrangler with the hardtop, they've still got the t-top option (Freedom top, as they like to call it – proof Chrysler's stuck in 2002?).

  1. Man, I am going to have to quit reading this blog. A $349 Merc and now this, both near enough to where I live.
    Maybe there should be a column advising hoons how to convince their SOs these bargains CANNOT be missed. That would solve things for me.

  2. I've always had a secret lust for one of these as well as a Rabbit pick-up.
    It probably has to do with the fact that not far from where I grew up there was a house with 2 Rabbit pick-ups and 2 Brats.

  3. Ah, the Brat, a product of international trade disputes and protectionism.
    A little known background; the plastic seats were added so that Subaru could import the Brat as a car, not a truck. Trucks had (still have?) an import duty on the order of 25% (somebody have the correct number?). So very clever……

    1. No, nobody answers these questions. The ad which inspired this article was posted on Craigslist well over a year ago, as was the article itself– check the date at the top of the page. Brats are fairly plentiful, so go find a current listing if you really want one.

  7. We want to but it depending on were its located I need a number or email….Please answer this
