$150 w/o rimz and tires. $450 with. Pick your poison. Oh doesn't start of course.

I feel like that is overpriced by 150/450

I'm not sure you went far enough. They should have to pay someone to take that!

Can you imagine the maintenance backlog on that?

Did everyone else think "well, at least it comes with a set of new, unopened Eibach springs?" I just realized that strap kits are $5 at Staples. That box could be filled with dirt, but you wouldn't know until you got home. You can't open it before you buy it, because you immediately remove the value of an unopened box. It's genius! Everything I sell on CL from now on will have straps around the box.

Rubber room.

That thing is a POS and needs to be flushed.

Is that the cam gear and cam snout broken off?!?!?!?! Talk about used and abused!

*A4, not S4. If it was an S4 there would actually be parts worth taking before scrapping it.

Not sure what the exact problem is? In picture 16, you're berking pointing at it. Bonus points for thinking you could maybe fix it with the roll of black duct tape in the same frame.

I love the "not sure why it won't run" and including picture of the cam gear snapped off. I think I might have an idea.

I was thinking the brake discs were mighty small.

That is a whole lot of broken in that ad. Armchair diagnosis - timing belt tensioner froze and put crazy pressure on the cam. A little surprised the belt didn't give way first. Maybe he should have spent some money on maintenance instead of rimz & stance.

Jesus is there anything besides duct tape holding that thing together?

A little JB Weld and more black tape will fix that cam gear....

If it has a good title, he keeps the wheels and make 300 by bringing it to the pick and pull

One of the funniest memories of sneaking into NYC as a kid was taking the train home and watching a guy find out he paid $50 for a VCR box full of bricks.
