    Default The World...It Is Sad.

    So we have the E39 BMW up on CL. It was listed at 3200 OBO then we started having issues with the MAF and I lowered the price to 2400....that's a BIG drop for a $180 or cheaper used part.

    This car should be sold by now. I am SO SICK of stupid fucks e-mailing me asking if I'd take $1k cash, $700 and come tow it away, ask if they can take it to BMW to have it inspected, if I will drive to them to show it, etc.

    One guy asked where I was located and I said in Athens and he replied asking if I was "a fucking retard, Athens is a big place." I mean really? That's what you say to the person you want to buy the car from? I should sell it to him with salt in the gas tank and break anything I can. I told him the car wasn't available to him though.

    Last night this dumb fuck comes to look at it, wants to see it late at night, I'm like WTF that's sketchy so get Jihad and my brother to come along, they look at it, don't say a word, both get in the car, my girlfriends like I'm like their car is worth more and it's here give them the keys and they take off in it, come back, say no. "Transmission." Really? The ad clearly states what's wrong with the car. Fucking morons. What's with idiots these days? "Do I need to bring two cars?" "Yes, I'm buying it." Right....

    Then there are the dumb fucks who want you to drive to them, why would I do that? Does Wal Mart drive to you? Does a used car dealer? NO! So get your fat fucking ass in the car and come to the car.

    Who even low balls a $2400 BMW worth way more then that? I could part it out and make more then $2400.

    So...cliffs...almost everyone is stupid as FUCK.

    /Rant.

    That's pretty much how it has been for me trying to sell the gold first gen Rx-7. I think it's retarded how nobody knows how to buy a car these days.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    theres a guy that wanted to buy the engine out of my ef and he has literally called like 15 times a day.. i just decided fuck that ass hole.. dont call me multiple times a day for weeks at a time.. told him the engine was pending sale to someone else anyways.. he's just being a douchebag.

    and some guy wanted to buy tie rods off of a 21 year old car.. how would i steer it if there are no tie rods? i dont live in a junk yard.. i cant just sell everything off a car and just leave it as a heap of metal.

    OH another good thing. I am selling a COMPLETE Miata head, intake manifold, everything still attached...for $40...FORTY FUCKING DOLLARS. Removed from a running car and a guy wants to know the history of the head, how many owners the car had, why it's removed, if it's been rebuilt, etc. I mean...really? WHAT THE FUCK. IF YOU'RE THAT WORRIED ABOUT SPENDING FORTY BUCKS YOU DON'T NEED TO BE SPENDING THE MONEY.

    i put my truck on CL last week....first thing i've ever put on CL....i will never put anything on CL again.

    my asking price on a lifted 96 z71 with 145k miles was 3900

    will you take $2500 and a shotgun
    will you take 2200 cash
    3100 and a mossberg .20....the fuck would i do with a 20 gauge shotgun?

    i had a mother/father come down from CONYERS TO MACON with their 15 yr old son and was looking at the truck for him, they test drove the truck, father loved it, son loved it, mother hated it and said it was too big for him...i was like wtf? you didn't see the pictures in the ad?

    had an offer for a straight trade on an '88 1500 truck....i was like, ok....whats the deal with it, the guy says "it has full exhaust and 203k miles" i was like that's it? he said yea and i hung up on him...no fucking way i would make that trade

    i ended up trading it for an '07 CRF450-R - Kevin Windham Replica, wiseco piston, full suspension, renthal bar, piped, jetted, etc, etc, etc....scary fast and only weighs in at 205lbs

    who would pay 2400 for a hunk of shit anyways? There's a reason you're getting low balled. Plus everyone knows you're not very intelligent.. so you say one thing is wrong, when it's probably another.
    Way Too Big

    Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

    Nothing major, but you know she drives to Kennesaw twice a week and around here. It needed a MAF a piece in it broke and caused a CEL to come on and effected the shifting.

    It also had a tiny power steering leak that needed to be fixed. Those were the two main issues then just little things here and there. She just wants something that's easier to work on and cheaper to buy parts for.
