Yep, very sad.

During his pre-buy inspection, I could tell he was young.  Didn't realize until after we exchanged cash and the paper work, that he was really young.  18 years old.  During the test drive he asked about fuel:  did it require premium?  I answered yes, to which he commented about investigating running low octane (for $$$) and then adding "octane booster".  I told him that I strongly suggested against that because: SUPERCHARGED.  I suspect that's ultimately what killed it.  It was running beautifully, with zero engine noises when sold.  I'm really sad.  Both for him, and the car.  R.I.P.  Jaaaaag.

Oh dang. I saw that ad, and thought of you. But didn't know you had already sold it and that this was the same car.
