Default Now this is how you write a "for sale" ad
This guy knows how to write a car ad. He is a copy writing genius.

I'm not interested in the car but I did read the whole write up. Just the fact that he is entertaining will make a difference!

Great Ad. If I was in the market for a C6 I would definitely go see this one just to meet this guy.

Thanks for posting. That was a good read. You’re right, that guy was born to write ad copy.

Good ad.

Why don't people detail their cars before the take pictures? At least fool me in to thinking it has been taken care of.

I'd like to drink a few beers with the guy and hang out in the garage. I have a feeling that if I were to buy his car I'd soon discover it had the sh*t beat out of it.
