Highlights

retarded craigslist seller said: The "Spider" model is the extremely rare model in comparison to the far more prevalent "Coupe" model. Go ahead and try searching for 60's/70's Fiat Spiders. You won't find very much, but will find plenty about the more common, less sought after Coupe models

Funny you mention that, I bought a 4-dr 95 civic that's super dependable and gets great gas mileage for $1k exactly. I'm the 3rd owner though...

those are alloys, a quick search on jcwhitney returned 120/each, but i can get the exact same look in a cragar soft 8 steel wheel for 40/per. plus he should be paying, what is it now, $8 per tire disposal fee, for people to take those bfg's

Delusional seller wants $12,900 for a thrashed 70 Barracuda with rusty quarters and a dented body. It's a 318 car with a "period correct" 440 swapped in and a blown trans. WTF!!?!?!?

You bought crank and rod bearings for your Mustang from Jaguar? There is your problem.

I found a 91 Beretta with a body kit and 230k that the seller was asking $4000. I emailed and offered him $500. He kept lowering the price all the way down to $1500 and I don't think it ever sold.

How about a delusional e-bay Volvo?

P-1800 with $35,000 BIN

91 electric truck chevy s10 - $9500

this is a 91 chevy s10 electric truck converted to run on batteries and no stinky gasoline. it is driven daily and will travel 30 plus miles before needing a charge (farther than i commute daily) and goes 60 mph.--full charge from low is 4 to 5 hrs call mike at 315 879 7165 to come drive it.i live in newark zip 14513 about 50 mi from ithaca. i also have an electric geo metro and an electric dune buggy for sale and they are easily charged daily by the sun-solar panels on my roof

Cool as that is, $9500 is nuts for a truck with a 30 mile range

hee hee, southern tier humor

howabout this: http://syracuse.craigslist.org/cto/1377632816.html

1995 caprice police package. 200k miles, blown tranny, pretty severe rust which the owner is apparently proud of when he claims "body is straight (no bondo)" Price: $1500. Now, how much do newly decommissioned P71s go for again...?

Pic of the body which thankfully has no bondo:

Uh, yah.... I'd be checking the VIN to make sure this is an Si.....

And hey, you can either drive around looking like you can't afford to paint your carbon fiber hood, or you can just get a black hood and not paint it.

Guy expects $1200 for a car that isn't running right, looks like crap on the outside, and has a stripped interior?

OK am I the only guy who thinks that any CL tire ads should REQUIRE the tires date code to be listed?

A co-worker of mine paid near $75 for an 18 year old pair of tires. Lots of tread of course but hard as a rock.

caveat emptor I suppose

I'm not sure about the price, but the abuse of the English language is there: 2003 Grand Am

Text of ad:

hey gays 03 grand am se make offert - $4200 (thornton)

make your offert at 720)XXX-XXXX call or text thanks serius offerts

It may have been an unfortunate typo, but addressing your potential customer base as "hey gays" might possibly turn off some buyers. I think they mean the engine has 71K miles, or maybe it's 71,000 KM?

Delusional BMW 2002 seller. Will readily admit it's faults and although it's a very clean '02, it's not worth the asking price of $5000. Maybe $2500 if he finds a motivated buyer.

Here's a few. . .

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/sat/cto/1369757448.html - wtf??

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/ctd/1359648801.html - Kids + GT coupe = Nice fixer upper?

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/atl/cto/1371614878.html - Originally wanted $3K

http://columbia.craigslist.org/cto/1374819279.html - It will go if you push it

"Renntech" Mercedes C-Class- $13,900

It's got a "large Supercharge and larger pulley". That's right, the supercharger is so massive, they had to put an oversized pulley on and cut the power.

It's got "the top exhaust system you could even put on the car." It's got a supposed "35k in Renntech and AMG Upgrades." But most importantly, it's got chrome wheel well trim and stick-on Buick fender portholes. No mention of how many miles are on the car or upgrades though.
