Needs a bunch of work? I must be missing something. I just see a dirty toyota that has been baking in the nevada sun.

This is specifically the car I target. If this was in my area I would buy it.


No I will not buy it and fly there to pick it up and drive it home. But if it were local, I’d buy it.

The reason I love cars like this is because you can buy it, Enjoy it, Clean it up, and resell it a year later for approximately the price you…

So I actually bought a Vstrom 1000 in 2006.

One of the reasons was literally because Vstrom guys are ATGATT. I knew guys on harleys and stuff that wouldn’t wear helmets because it “wasn’t cool”, but all the Vstrom guys I knew were like “reflective clothes- check, helmet, leg pads, jacket- check, safety checks before…

Are kentucky and tennessee separate states?

My friends have hired car models before to take pictures with their cars.

I’d venture to guess she isn’t showing her face because well.. you wouldn’t want to see it.

1. What makes anyone think this guy will be able to afford the penalty? Its more than the car + boat are worth.

2. No one mentioned the most impressive part... He got this boat ON that trailer. Seriously. that meant either he had someone with a lift, or he drove that thing into the water and it still survived. I’m…

and people with a consciousness...

I feel like satans brother driving an SS in stop and go traffic for DD duty.

It only gets 300 miles of range, but uses 19 gallons, for 16 MPG combined.

Fuel will cost you $11,500+ more over 150k miles.

The SS generages 544 grams per mile of co2 emissions, which is 36% more than a…

On the contrary,. I consider it essential and would never buy a truck without it.

I got a free trial of sirius XM. I thought the quality was supposed to be “CD quality”, but it was worse than OTA... Why would someone pay for it?

I paid 14k under MSRP for my ram.

no employee discount or anything special.

I think the diesels were 16k under if I remember a couple of weeks ago...

I don’t know if its “snobbish” so much as their model is to have very limited capacity... They only will list your car if its unique, if they don’t have other similar cars for sale at the moment, and they often schedule your listing way into the future.

I’ve heard this response before, and your right to an extent...

But thats the problem:
Do I want to pay $800 and take 2 vacation days off just to fly out to South Dakota and see if *Maybe* the car is in the displayed condition, as well as to *hope* the car is still for sale? Then Pray it makes it a couple thousand miles…

Thats the tough thing about cars like this.

To 99% of people its too much, but if you are loaded and looking for something specific, you’ll pay top dollar.

I’m not quite loaded, but I’ve definitely paid 10-15k premiums for the right color and option combinations.

MT Green Porsche 996 911with Black Interior- I’ll pay way…

I think around 8-12k is fair game.

The tough thing with NPCP is that we don’t know what he’s actually looking for.

For example, I just listed a car on CL for way more than its worth. I don’t intend to sell it for that much, but I’m waiting for someone who wants THAT SPECIFIC car because its super rare (I know everyone says “I KNOW WHAT I GOT”, but its…

1. Most people have never heard of BaT
2. I don’t know anyone whose actually been accepted by BaT to sell their vehicle

But its in South Dakota.

Seriously if that was near an actual city with actual people, it would sell in about 10 minutes.

But Cattle can’t afford Datsuns.

I’d definitely go look at it if it were within a couple of hours of me...

If I had a giant car hauler to pull jeeps to the badlands... well... that might make it fair…

The 280zx was my first SPORTS car. I loved it.

At the time I spent a lot of money on it - $400. Yes, I paid $400, and more disturbing to me is THAT WAS A LOT OF MONEY FOR ME at the time.

I drove it for a couple of years and sold it for $200. Unfortunately, that was before the world of Craigslist and Ebay, and I couldn’t…

Bring on the hate!

I’m actually a transplant. My sister met her husband in Michigan and his side of the family is all in Michigan. I did spend some time here, but left and moved back later in life. Although I like Ohio quite a bit, I never built up the rivalry so many have.

In fact, we have a timeshare and I can’t tell…

Both viable. Thanks for the thoughts. 

I guess it could be OSU’s equine center... that’s in the middle of nowhere... but if she was studying actual horses, then no question she’d buy a truck haha.

that is true,. If she came from new York or PA, she could also think schools like Findlay are “closest to Cleveland” even…
