E-bay - another good one!

Good reading, a little lengthy, but good reading. Neat car though.

What a tool. He's got receipts for everything? Let's see the receipts that prove he gets the car wetsanded and buffed once a month. :rolleyes:

I wanna see that $3500 transmission too.

Is it just me or is his A/F curve off? the graph shows it going up to 15:1 or so... Or am I just not awake yet?

Don't you just love people who like to tell you how much money they spend on stuff? I like the little bit about the diamond ring, too. Just in case we didn't know that he has money to throw around, he made sure we knew the EXACT specs on the lavish diamond ring he is buying.

Yet another example where MONEY does not necessarily equal CLASS.

If he really put as much as he says into that car $18k is a steal IMO.

Re: E-bay - another good one! (LT-4 CE)

Among all the things contained in the ad, I was really caught by the wet sanding once a month. How can there be any paint left?

There was a discussion about rear wings on C4 I wrote that I thought they were OK if they were conservative. This one is definitly not conservstive. :nono: :sad:

I like how it has a CD of .08... even though all other c4 coupes are .33 or so.

That and this quote from the add:

"DRM also lowered the car about 2 inches in the front and rear, which cost another couple thousand".

That's $30.00 for the MAD kit and $1970 labor to DRM?

Re: E-bay - another good one! (LT-4 CE)

im on the fence on that one.sounded better than it looked in the pics.
i think he needs to just keep the car and find a woman more understanding.
but,i guess,some people have extra cash to toss out and dopping 20k isnt a huge concern.
hope he gets a few of his bucks back.
they might grow on me,but so far i dont care for the big wheel look on the c4.
wide-yes,but the narrow sidewall profile and all wheel look is just a bit to far from stcok for my tastes.
might just be the pics.
"The vortex ram air kit actually takes cold condensed air from the radiator and sucks it into the intake"
what is he saying there? i havent found any cold condensed air around my radiator to tap into.

:crazy:
