eBay Challenge: Rare Versions Of Regular Cars For Less Than $15,000

It's one thing to own a Volkswagen Golf, but it's a whole different animal to own a Volkswagen Golf R32 with a 6-speed manual. This week your challenge is to find the rarest version of regular cars on eBay, for under a $15 grand budget. This may not be easy.

Here are the rules:

• One entry per post.

• Cars must have a realistic selling price under $15,000.

• Cars must be operable/easily restored to running condition.

• 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 the best rare version of a regular car for less than $15,000.

  Start here and find a car that will make the local owner's club do a double take.
