- A good night's sleep is important, but it's time to wake up sheeple. Today, we're gonna talk about cars that you absolutely should not be sleeping on because they're about to go to the moon. Today, I'm joined by our resident Craigslist king, Jeremiah, I'm James and this is the... - [Presenter] "D-List" - Thank you to our friends at Helix for sponsoring today's video. Yup. You guessed it. Sleep is the most important meal of the day. And when it comes to buying a mattress, I know how much of a pain it can be. But thanks to Helix Mattress, I've been living pain-free for six months now.

And in just a few clicks, helix paired me with the Dusk Luxe Mattress. It's so comfortable, And honestly, my dog doesn't even wanna leave the bed in the morning. She didn't even have a job. And it's not just finding your perfect mattress, that's easy. Helix also delivers right to your front door. It even comes with a 100 nights sleep trial so you can be sure it's the perfect match or they'll come pick it up themselves and give you a full refund. So what are you waiting for sleepy heads? Head over to helixsleep.com/donutmedia or click the link in the description to receive up to $200 off of your mattress and two free pillows. And now Back to the list. Like I said, Jeremiah is Donut's resident Craigslist king. He's the reigning champ of the Craigslist challenge. And he buys a lot of crap. (Jeremiah laughs) Jeremiah, can you just give me a list of cars that you have bought, and or sold since working at Donut? - Okay. I had a GX 470 I sold, I saw Toyota Tundra, SC 400, Ford F-150, just bought a Ford F-250, I got my Catfish Camaro that I bought on Craigslist, and then I have seven motorcycles that I bought. - So obviously, Jeremiah has the credentials. And today, I'm gonna present him with a series of cars that aren't obviously collectible. And ultimately, he's gonna decide if these are a good investment that are gonna the moon, or if they should go straight to hell. (Jeremiah laughs) Okay, first car on the list, Dodge Caliber SRT-4. So, Jeremiah, what's the first thing that comes to your mind when you see this Caliber SRT-4. - This is a weird generation of cars. It's a weird look. It's just not- - Yeah. It's got that early 2000's Dodge styling. - Yeah. - They're like boxy, they hadn't quite figured it out. - Right. I don't think personally, that in let's just say 30 years, these cars are gonna be worth anything. - Here's why I think that this car is cool. It's got 2.4-liter turbocharged engine called, the fricking Warhawks, sounds like an Avenger. (Jeremiah laughs) Makes 280 horsepower, which is like 40 more horsepower than the Neon SRT-4. - Okay. - They gave it an arguably sick body kit, 19-inch wheels, (Jeremiah laughs) and a mandatory six-speed, six, Jeremiah, six-speed manual transmission. Plus, it's got the same 13-inch brakes from the Charger. - Okay. - They made 25,000 Neon SRT-4s and the good ones are super expensive, but you can buy a clean Caliber SRT-4 for under 10 grand. And they only made like 5,000 of them. So, they're not making anymore. - You know what? I'm actually convinced that this car could make me some money. (James laughs) - Yeah? - You see, I liked the analytics here. That's what's really getting me juiced up. - Yup. - They made less of them, they're more powerful, it got a 6-speed, they got Charger brakes. - Yeah! To the moon? - To the moon, man. - Next car, Isuzu Amigo. - Okay. So, I know about the Isuzu Amigos. What they lack in quality, they gain in cuteness. (James chuckles) They're cute little four-wheel drive car. I don't know much about them in terms of resale and like potential blow up. I don't see this car going for a ton of money at a Mecum Auction in a few years. - Don't be fooled by its cute looks because if you feed this boy after midnight, he turns into a monster. (Jeremiah laughs) Amigo is a short wheelbase version of the Rodeo. - Oh. - Okay? Not only can you take the back off and it's 2-door but you can get it with four-wheel drive and a V6 that made 205 horsepower in that little thing. How much power did a Wrangler make in 1999? 180. Basically what I'm saying, is the Amigo is the (beep) of cars. (Jeremiah laughs) It's cheaper, it's better than a Wrangler, and it's time to wake up, okay? 'Cause this boy's going straight, straight up. If you're not convinced, here's one that I found on eBay right now. (Jeremiah laughs) Okay. Not so cute. - No, that's not cute anymore, it's something. Seeing this one kind of modded up, knowing that people do, you know, there is some aftermarket support for them, makes me think like, Yeah, people can buy them cheap and make them look cool, they're gonna go up. - Maybe not to the moon, but promising. Jeremiah have you ever been in a Crown Vic? - I have. - Perhaps the back. (Jeremiah chuckles) - Of a crown Vic? - Yeah. You ever been arrested? (Jeremiah laughs) - Ahh. Yes. (Jeremiah laughs) - Well, you kinda got to jail a lot faster if the police officer was driving a Mercury Marauder. - When I see these, I always think about like Impala SSs. To get a nice clean Impala SS is pretty hard and they bring a lot of money when you do try to find one. So, I'm getting those kinds of vibes with this but I don't know so much. - Here's why I think the Marauder is a good investment, it shares the same Panther platform as the Crown Vic but it's way better. I'm talking leather seats, better suspension, and did I mention manpower baby! Marauder got the same 4.6-liter modular V8s as the Mustang Mach 1 and put down 300 buff ass herspers. Here's what I found on OfferUp for six grand. And it clearly states, you can't lie on OfferUp, (Jeremiah chuckles) runs perfect with no issues whatsoever. - 210,000 miles. (Jeremiah laughs) - Don't even pay attention to that. These things could go a million miles. - Yeah, yeah. Okay. All right. I'm not convinced to this one. This is a tough one for me. - I feel like with the really nice ones, it's too late to get in. - That's probably true. Right. If you could have found one 10 years ago when no one really, you know, like and it's got less than 50,000 miles. - Yeah. - They're out there. I mean, I'm sure any of these cars, I just want to say this, any of these cars, you could probably make money on, if you can find the one that's been living in a garage. - Right. - But these, I don't know. - All right, Jeremiah, let me ask you a question. What makes an R34 GT-R cool? Twin turbos, all-wheel drive. Well, the Ford Taurus Police Interceptor has those. It makes more power baby. And it doesn't cost $200,000. - It looks just as nice. - It looks just as cool. - I don't know. I don't see these things shooting off in value but I can be convinced. - Well, this generation Interceptor could be optioned with the same 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine as a Taurus HHO. Good for 365 horsepower. That's a horse for every day of the year, dude. And unlike the show, the interceptor has upgraded suspension, a reinforced chassis for ramming, and something called "Pursuit Mode". - Oh. - Twin turbo ones are harder to find but Max bought his for like five grand. - Uh-huh. - And then had a really weird time selling it. (Jeremiah laughs) - It has some cool features. I like that it has a reinforced thing for ramming, that's pretty sick. - Yeah. - But I also don't think- - I don't wanna ram anybody. - I don't wanna ram, you're not gonna wanna ram anyone. (laughs) Yeah. And the fact that Max bought his, then had trouble selling it leads me to think that, no matter what, you're gonna have trouble selling this. - Plus, you know, cop cars are just dogged on. - Oh, yeah. - And just driven by a bunch of different people. - Right. I don't know. This doesn't spark up any like, Oh, yeah. I gotta get on one of these. - I agree. - And it doesn't tingle my Craigslist senses. - So, stays in hell. - Stays right there in hell. (James laughs) - People routinely come up to me on the street and say, Buick hasn't made a good car since the Grand National. Are you that type of person, Jeremiah? Do you agree with that sentiment? - I know like three Buick cars and I would probably say, yeah, the Grand- - Well, you're dead wrong. (Jeremiah laughs) - Allow me to present the 4th generation Buick Regal GS. - What? Get outta here with this (beep). - This thing rules. - Is Buick, Buick still makes cars, right? - Buick still makes cars. - See that's the problem with Buick, Buick still makes cars and I totally forgot that they still make cars. - But I do legitimately think that this car is cool, and I do think that it's a wise investment. It is definitely slept on. These are rad. - Okay. All right. I can be convinced. - So unlike the regular Regal, Jeremiah, sounds he can't be regular and regal. The GS came with a supercharged V6 that made 240 horsepower. 240 horsepower in a grandpa-mobile. Okay? And they are cheap, cheap, cheap. Like Tommy was so cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap, cheap cheap. Buick also teamed up with SLP to make the GSX, which made 270 herspers. - Okay. - I would, again, like to reiterate that these Buicks are at the lowest possible point in their depreciation curve. - Okay. I'm in it. I'm in it to win it now. I love special edition cars. SLPs. - I've got SLP parts. - I got SLP, like my Camaro is factory SLP. It had every SLP option when they made it. So SLP brings more money. - This kid in my high school had one of these, with pulleys. And he'll just pull on all of us. - Dang. They're like a sleeper car. And then once people know about the sleeper car, they want the OG untouched version. - Yeah. - Right? And if you can find one of those that's been sitting in a garage, and it seems like they're cheap. - You know, what we gotta do. We gotta buy one. - [Jeremiah] Right. Crank up the boost. - [Jeremiah] Right. - Make it super fast, get it out there. And then also buy a totally stock low mile one. - Right. - Park her in the garage for a couple years. - Put a cover on her. - Boom, bang, bang, boom. Our kids are going to college. - Whoo-hoo. This is like, it's like, like Dax Shepard bought that. - Exactly. All we need to do is get Dax Shepard to buy one of these. - Hey, Dax, can you buy one of these, after we buy four. (Jeremiah laughs) - To the moon! (rocket buzzing) I know you already liked this (Jeremiah laughs) but we can just skip it. - I do. My parents had one of these- - [James] Yeah. Everyone's parents had one of these. - Everyone had one of these. This is hitting the nostalgia button. And to be honest, I hit up Max the other day about this and was like, Hey man, we should get in on these 'cause they're about to pop. - Yeah. - The Chevy suburban is the only car to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, okay? - What? - I just want... Yeah. Somehow the Beetle doesn't, even though it was in movies. (Jeremiah laughs) In the mid 90s, GMT 400 Suburbans are some of the best Chevies ever. They're beefy, they're comfy, and hold a lot of gabagool You know, Tony Soprano drove one. He woke up this morning, he got some gabagool. They're super easy to work on, You can buy the parts at AutoZone, and best of all, they're cheap. - I think this is my number one so far. - Yeah. - These are fire. - This has crazy potential. - Yes. Crazy potential. 'Cause like you said, everyone remembers them, or rode in one, had one, loved them. They were super popular. They probably sold a (beep) ton of these. - It's like one of the only cars from the 90s that's like fairing well. - Right. I love these. I'm more sentimental but I, from, leaving that aside, from profit, when I get my money eyes on. Think about OJ Broncos right now, you know, for a long time, everyone wanted the pre you know, the older gen Broncos. Now, those things are (indistinct). You can't find them. They're super expensive. This is that same thing for Chevy, I think. And I think these are gonna blow up. (lively trumpet music) - Speaking of space, (Jeremiah chuckles) this thing is already past the moon. And I'm pretty sure that it has a couple of moons of its own two. - Okay - Two, Three, I don't know. Talking about the Saturn Ion Red Line. I'm not an astronomer. (Jeremiah laughs) It's beautiful, it's got a wedge shape just like a Lamborghini, it's got a spoiler. - I mean beauty- - It's plastic. (Jeremiah laughs) - This era of Saturn's had the worst plastic ever. It's like they just melted a bunch of (beep) Pepsi bottles. - This is the only era of Saturn, Saturn had one era. - Initially when I see this, I don't think Lamborghini. - Oh. - No, no, no. I did not think Lamborghini, I don't think luxury, I think a car trying to look fast that probably isn't fast. That's just me just looking at it. And I'm not even looking at the Saturn badge. - Okay, well, I'm here today to convince you that you're a (beep). (Jeremiah laughs) Because Saturn, to one look at the Dodge Caliber SRT-4 and thought, Damn. We need to make something like that. So, they gave us the classic Lambergyn for the every man, Ion Redline. It's a Saturn Ion, but it's supercharged. This pop star makes 205 herspers, but nobody wanted them when they were new. So Saturn killed it and sent it to hell in 2007. But, they're weird, and kind of cool, and they're definitely cheap. I think you're gonna see one of these sell for... money that you're just gonna be like what? - The thing I'm thinking of is, Who wants a Saturn? - No one. (Jeremiah laughs) Joe Webber would love one of this. - Joe Webbs wants a Saturn? I don't know man. I went to a Saturn dealer once when I was a kid. And I remember getting in a car and just thinking, This car stinks. (James laughs) And they're terribly unreliable. That's why, part of why Saturn suck so bad, 'cause they always, they just like weren't good cars, right? Am I wrong on that? - You are alienating a huge part of our audience, the Saturn crowds. - Okay - All right. I apologize to you. (Jeremiah laughs) - I mean, I honestly don't know. I'm guessing, yes, you can make money on it, but it is not gonna... this is not a moon car, no way. This car will never shoot to the moon. Put a stamp on it, (James laughs) with seal of approval. It's not a banger. It will never happen. Sorry, Saturn fans, but grow up. (both laughs) - Okay. So this next car has probably one of the most important things you need for financial success, name recognition. Shelby CSX, stands for Carroll Shelby Xperimental. Because you know, that if you put an E on there, you're a lame'r. - Okay. My first concern is just 'cause you slap a name on it, doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna bring in value. - But it's not just any name, okay? It's Carroll Shelby. - Right, but I have- - Performance was his business. (camera crew laughs) - I have Emeril pots and pans at my house and they're (beep) garbage. But I bought them 'cause they had Emeril on it, you know. - Haven't been this confident that I'm gonna change your mind. - Okay. - All day. - Well, I will say this, I kind of liked the look of this thing. - [James] I think this styling is coming back around. - I think it's cool. - [James] They make it in a really cool red color. - It reminds me, there I say, of your 86 a little. - Little bit. The CSX is based on the K-car platform, which does kind of suck, but it has a 2.2-liter turbo four cylinder, with an intercooler, and a forged crank. At the end of the day it's a Shelby car. And apparently, you can up the boost on these. And the guy at the Shelby Museum was like, They're terrifying, (Jeremiah laughs) which is awesome. So, I'm not gonna act like this is as cool as a Cobra but I've seen them pop up on Craigslist for under five grand in really good condition. - Oh. Hey, you say under five grand, my ears perk up. Because that's a, that's like a reasonable, low risk investment that has potential pay off. So you've got the Shelby name, which is cool, right? That's gonna bring it. The little motor is kind of fun, like a little intercooled turbo, four cylinder. - And from the 80s so you know that's great. (Jeremiah laughs) - Yeah. It's really efficient. And I didn't even know, I knew Shelby touched a couple different cars but I didn't know about this one at all until today. - [James] Very few people do. - I think this is a potential moon car, - Moon bound. Okay. This last car on the list might not need a ton of convincing, but there's already evidence in the market that they're gonna be worth a lot of money. - [Jeremiah] Okay. - Talking about the unloved brother of the Z family, the Z31 Nissan 300ZX. - Doesn't Webbs have one of these? - Joe Webber has a Shiro. - Shiro version. I thought these are already on their way up. - They are on their way up. - Yeah, these are great. - So you're not getting it on the ground level but it's still early enough that you can get in early. - Right. You know, it's Tesla, it's at 2.50 a share, you didn't get it at a hundred, but you know what? It's pretty good now. (laughs) - It's sandwiched by two really desirable cars that have, like generations that have already gone up. - Though the older that these get, the more classic they look. - And it's like, you know, it's from a quality brand. It's not a Saturn. So it's, you know, (Jeremiah laughs) it's gonna do good in the long run. It's a great investment for sure. - If it runs and it's a good one. - [Jeremiah] Yeah. Okay. - So, yeah. To the moon. - [Presenter] Big announcement. - Donut is looking for new co, Sorry can you get back in the beginning? You guys, donut is looking for new hosts. Do you love cars?
