ugh. the fact that it is an automatic and that its $800 more just made this car seem way less appealing. it wouldve been nice as a project car, but as a college student i wouldn't put down 2k for a side project. although, if i had the time, money, or knowledge (don't have any of those 3 currently) i could convert the car to manual transmission and just use the one in my current car for the swap. | | | | | 11-29-2007, 08:48 PM | #8 | | NOBODY F's with the Jesus Join Date: Oct 2006 Location: Ventura California Posts: 7,824 |
This guy sounds like a douchebag. "Due to the overwhelming interest, I'm raising the price" It appears that he doesn't want people to be interested in buying his car if he's raising the price. Also, I like the way he added that it's missing an airbag and the fuel gauge doesn't work. __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | | | 11-29-2007, 09:03 PM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 |

So many people are dishonest when listing their vehicles, which often results in other people's time being wasted. In his case I think it backfired on him. I don't doubt that the car is worth the 2 grand he's asking for it. But since he pulled a dirtbag move and raised the price, I wouldn't even bother dealing with him. Besides being an automatic, fuel gauge not working, airbag missing and oh yeah the motor being trashed, I wonder how many other hidden problems the car has. I know people are thinking "well for two grand, what do you expect?" but that's not the point. It doesn't matter if he was only asking two hundred for it. At the very least, he should be honest. If you got a sale flyer in the mail and went to the store to find out that they raised the prices because people "showed interest", would you still shop there? Of course not and the store would soon go out of business because of false advertisement lawsuits. __________________ 4 MORE YEARS BABY!!! | | | | | 11-29-2007, 09:44 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2004 Location: Long Beach area Posts: 1,189 |

That sucks! I thought I was doing someone here a favor & the guy ends up being a jerk.  I see someone posted (anonymously) hehehe, on his local craigslist board in response to his "update". http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/car/493572418.html This could be fun for a little while! At least until Mr. cnotesdip says something silly again. Then we can trash him some more! | | | | | 11-29-2007, 11:16 PM | #13 | | Senior Member Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Eugene Oregon Posts: 6,182 |
