As a Floridian laughing at commiefornia, this should be a nothingburger story. Kid got star struck and ignored classic used car salesmen moves. Even with a clean carfax, you still bring your flashlight and look at every major bolted on part to see if paint is removed. Especially with a used car lot, you tell them you

Having recently acquired one, I gotta vote for the VR38DETT from an R35. Out of the gate with great hp and tq,  and one of the most common engines to see quad digit hp numbers with heavy mods, its hard to dislike.   And I’m seeing mpg’s in the 20's with a bloated ‘16 GTR

Not a bad price if it actually was sold for 100k. But looking on cargurus, I see 10 used TRX’s near me for sale, and they are all over 105k. MSRP continues to be a laughable dream.  

SO based and accurate. There are 17,000 crashes every day in the US. You and your car aren’t special, this is why car insurance is a no-brainer. Ever totaled older car I deal with also “just had $XXX” put it in for maintenance....because old cars need maintenance.

So, 15 cars, value of all of them combined is like $20,000...but are they all registered and insured? I’m just imagining $100/year/car registration, and $80/mo/car insurance, to keep a whole mess of....things.  

Careful posting this deepfaked video. facts and video evidence dont matter in the world of feelings

I’ll just leave this here:

Man, all over this article is further proof that reading is hard for people who just want to be offended. Its far easier to read bold letters and look at shiny pictures

Judging by the quality of parts I’ve been getting from my local scrap yards, I’m willing to bet some junk yard will put those quarter panels up for sale as “B” condition   SMH

they forklift (with a front end loader) EVERYTHING at copart. I’ve gotten two odysseys with crushed spare tire wells from those guys, and they were drivable!

I want to see them inside-out a run-flat tire

I-75, in an F-550 wheel lift tow truck....towing a full size pickup.

Holy isht, it comes with a Benz/Mayback Nokia as well!!!

I’ll just leave this here....

I’m seeing 280. Is this tv for 200 bucks actualy 2XX! or is there a special something else?

Then again, German interiors seem to dissolve after a few years, at least in FL.  I hate how often customers cars come in with sticky pealing rubber interior switches...ugh

You made me literally LOL at the ‘plastic spoons’ comment. For real though, how are we so far advanced with materials, but every straight 6 BMW leaks from their oil filter housing gasket?? $10 part, $1000 fix

Its odd, I see 16 of these for sale at autotrader from dealers - stock photos of course. Think they are real?

That article doesn’t say how or why it is dangerous to fill while running, just a generic ‘risk of ignition is higher.’ Ignition from what exactly?

Where is a 2020 accord hybrid starting at 25k? I’m seeing more like $35K, unless there’s a stripped down hybrid version I don’t know about
