I bought a white on black 06 CVPI for around that price in great condition with only 104,334 miles (971 idle hours). With that many idle hours it's considered a unicorn in the used police car market. And if you do the math 134,334 miles + (971 idle hours) × (33 miles on engine per idle hour) you get 136,377 engine running miles. When I test drove it, it ran like a champ. Great performance and response, and was fast from a roll for a 4,000 lbs tank. When driving normal, "It rides like an old Cadillac." Now it has 148k + miles (1400 + idle hours), is still going strong, the a/c still works, and is still riding like an old Cadillac. So to me my CVPI was also a steal. No other used car can give you ride comfort, room, high performance, and can handle abuse like the CVPI. If you want an affordable, well built luxury car, buy a used Lexus. If you want an affordable well built car with room and comfort, buy any of the panther platform cars. If you want an affordable well built high performance car, with room and comfort, that can handle any road, and any style of driving, mine's aggressive, then buy a good used CVPI, you won't regret it.

The only new car I have ever had is my 2018 Corolla SE. I knew the reputation for extreme reliability and to me it really has a nice sporty look. Four years later and it has not had one single problem! The only issue is that it rides rough on bumpy roads because of the low profile tires, but on the other hand, it corners quite well. I test drove a Honda Civic when I was looking at new cars, it was also nice but the Corolla was a little quieter and surprisingly it was a little smoother running in my opinion. I usually buy used cars to save money but at the time I was driving 60 plus miles a day for work and was tired of fixing my 06 Trailblazer every other week... I take good care of my cars and the Toyota Corolla has never let me down, it runs just as nice as the day I drove it off the lot!

Do not trust your life with 30 year old air bags!! They probably will not work after that Much time.

Awesome dude ❤

I like your videos so much I subscribe twice

ME: "Hey Scotty how many cars do you own?" Scotty: "Toyota"

Great video Scotty! Probably the overall best car I ever owned was a Matrix XRS with the 1.8l 180HP VVTLi engine and 6 speed gearbox.. It LOVED to rev! Great sportiness plus great utility. I lamented when they were discontinued.

XRS are rare!

That 'scowling front end' of the Lexus reminds me of a Cylon from the original Battlestar Galactica!

Scotty, you should've commented on the Pontiac Vibe...the Matrix 1st cousin. I had one for about 12 years/150k, before I sold it. Mine was a GT manual trans. The clutch did have to be replaced, still a reliable, quick, efficient, and roomy car. I hauled a half stack Marshall Amp, guitars, etc, to gigs in the thing. I miss it at times.

He has a video on that.

Some people driving a Pontiac Vibe don't realize they're driving a gift...same car, but the depreciation means you can get a real bargain!

In 1989, I was at the Toyota dealer meeting in SF when that Celica was introduced. A week later, the big 6.0 SF earthquake happened, causing 63 deaths.

That thumbnail was great 🤣

I'm looking at his reflection and the camera in the drivers window😂. This guy is awesome, he just says it as it is. Big ups Scotty.

The thumbnail is nice

My 1991 Mazda 626 is like Scottys Celica. Never needed anything exept brake pads and oil changes. Made in Japan of course.

Scotty I feel the same way. I have a 2004 Scion XB with 312,001 miles original engine and trans and still going strong 💪🏽💪🏽.

That thumbnail though 😅 You definitely catfished me 😂😂😂

Where did you get your seat covers? I have a 2010 Corolla that will need them eventually!

I felt the same way about my DOHC Ford Taurus 225,000. I had to part with it because a solenoid in the transmission was causing the Check Engine light to come on and it failed smog, but ran fine!

Man those smog tests are such a scam. I hate that for you. Here in GA you could’ve drove it until the wheels fell off. We’re still a free state, for now

Glad Indiana doesn't have vehicle inspection requirements.

I love your utilitarian and practical attitude about vehicles. A car is only transportation, not a lifestyle choice or personal ethos. Hope all of America starts looking objectively at their needs and begins to transit away from gratuitous luxury, eavesdropping technology and fossil fuel consumption. Total cost of ownership is something few people think of when they're browsing cars at the dealership because they let their WANTS become more important than their NEEDS.

nice video !

Scottys Car Collection, "TOYOTA(S)!" Gee, who woulda guessed. Ya Scotty, those new grills are "UUUGLY." 😲😲😲

Scotty, thinking of buying a 2000 and up model Celica if i cant find a 94-95 model. What are your thoughts on the 2000 and up years? Fun story. My dad (RIP) had an early 90s model Celica, and rebuilt the engine and transmission in just 1 day. Still had time to test drive it with me with some sun shine left haha! We took it a dealership in TN that same week, and the dealership traded him a brand new cargo van with an upgraded stereo and a set of monster JBL speakers. Even handed him 2,000 dollars in CASH for the Celica. Less than 2 weeks later, a guy at the dealership took the Celica for a spin (probably advertising or for fun) but underestimated the spunkyness, and wrapped the thing around a tree completely totaling the car. Needless to say, he was fired, but that car was so fun to drive or in my case ride in, and it was also relatively easy to work on despite some of the tight spaces.

Loved it

Sounds like you and your wife have a lot of fun together Scotty 😎💗👍P.S you're right buddy, the quality of a lot of vehicles has gone down the toilet. Sure makes you wonder.

Love the images you put in the corner. So funny.

Can't wait for the next video that reveals some of those beautiful italian sportscars Scotty has on the thumbnail! 🤣😅😂

man i love scottys laugh 9:56 had me cackling
