INNOVATION!
If you think the major shortcoming of hang gliding and motocross is that neither one alone offers enough ways to die, this is the transit revolution you’ve been waiting for!
Narrator: “The kite bike would actually not revolutionize transit at all.”
I’d try to bring it down to $3800. Sure, there’s a few issues, but remember: this one has no nannies. No drive by wire nonsense, no beeping, no internet connection, no complex electronics. This car will simply obey. Look at all that glass. The sightlines, the view out of the windshield feels like NSX.
You can’t really go wrong here. You can play with it as-is or tinker with it. They are easy to work on, parts are endless. Easy to sell if you want out. It’s harmless fun.
You got to be kidding....even for a Honda, 216K miles is a lot...and in shit paint, shit interior, broken this and that, and they are asking for >4K? This is a $1.5K car at best.
Living in sweaty south Florida makes me pass on this fun little buzz bomb.
The A/C and radios in these were dealer installed options. We bought an 88 new (base DX) and splurged for the A/C. First thing I did was install an Alpine head unit. My Ex got the car and put over 300,000 miles on it in the Northeast!!! Midas replaced the exhaust multiple times under the unlimited warranty! The driver…
No AC? Not for me. But that is throw away money and it’s a Honda. I’ll be surprised if it isn’t snapped up quickly. (I have 216k on my 06 and she’s good - but I know the service history).
Crank windows!
Totally legit. Swearsies.
I mean, he probably has to. The whole point of stealing these cars is to sell them at prices your clientele won’t pay retail, and you need to pay to send them wherever they’re getting unloaded - once everyone takes their cut, I doubt the thief is pocketing anything close to the value of the car.
He will get caught, because having found a successful scam, he’s going to keep doing it until the victims figure out a way to catch him at it.
I saw a really sketchy video of some guys unloading a Cullinan in Africa using chunks of wood and old pallets- probably one of this guys earlier jobs
Middle East is the highest probability, followed by Eastern Europe. Mexico? No, they just want trucks and other agricultural vehicles.
That is a truly magic combination of sketchiness - Floridians and Eastern Europeans
Sounds like the delivery driver is in on the scam, too.
These cars are definitely headed for Mexico or Eastern Europe - given the popularity of German cars there, I suggest the latter. It probably wouldn’t be hard to catch this dude if they just pin down his shipper, but freight shipping operates with a virtually total lack of regulatory oversight so good luck with that.
Feels like FedEx does a better job of handling expensive packages. Maybe they should get into the car shipping game.
And that’s why you don’t let the customer change the address on a expensive delivery.
