How is this not just being sold for scrap but instead asking more than what I've seen for complete, running cars?

That has to be the most silly thing I've seen. I can't believe he is serious. "We think it was red"...

2006 SAAB $29k asking price.

CRAZY Berkley said: Hello, I have for sale a 2006 Saab 9-3 Aero. It has almost 61K on the odometer. The color is steel gray. It's more or less a dark grey, some people refer to it as titanium. It has a V6 250hp turbo and ALL options available including navigation. It is a 6 speed transmission. The added accessories I have added are all-weather mats (front and rear seats), CERAMIC 35% tint, tow package ($400), rubber trunk and passenger mats, trunk mounted cargo net, and 18" BBS CH wheels with new Continental DWS (these were $3500). These tires have about 1000 miles on them. I just had the rear brakes replaced. This is a $300 service job. I also just completed the Major Service at 60K. This was a $1200 service job. I also have the original wheels with Bridgestone Revo 1 studless snow tires mounted on them (snow tires were $600). The snow tires have about 3000K miles on them and are like new. I just tried them this past winter and they are AWESOME. The dealerships are super cool and provide excellent customer service. There are too many details to mention. This car is loaded with all options possible. I'm asking $29,800 or best offer. Please, only serious buyers. I can provide pictures on request.

And SWMBO gives ME a hard time about run-on sentences. Looking at the pictures though, I have to wonder (besides asking why there's no shots of the engine bay or even with the doors open...): why remove the gas door? You're certainly not saving any appreciable weight, and only hurting the aerodynamics of the body...

Is this guy is delirious as I think he is? Porsche 968 Turbo - $36000

You heard right...a replica of the Porsche factory car that won LeMans it's first year out.

But the difference is that that car used the 8 valve head from the 944, while this one has keep the 16v head with it's fully functioning vanos system and a Motronic . The result is a 3.0 litre four cyclinder that puts out 550hp on race gas. Right now I am running it at .8 bar, which results in 425 at the crank and 360 to the rear wheels.

The car is designed to operate as a standard 968 Porsche up to 3200rpm, which means cruising on the freeway at 3000rpm nets 28mpg, above that the vanos resets and the K29 turbo engages.....and then whooaaa hang on!!!

Car currently has 95K on the body and 15K on the engine build. The engine was built by David Raines, from Powerhaus Porsche in Phoenix, AZ. For the price of $28K, he also can provide the dyno sheets as evidence to it's ability.

Koni club sport suspension and the larger 928 brakes and calipers.

She is an absolute blast to drive and is the ultimate "sleeper". Nothing externally gives away the hidden potential of this car, except the 6" stainless exhaust out the back.

There are less than 50 of these in the world and the price fairly reflects that.

Yup, firetruck = redundancy.
