Is the car at Cooper Corvettes?

It's too much of a drive for me, but you might want to change your title to ask for "anyone in NOVA?". There are a couple of guys who hang out who live near there.

Or better yet, chime on this thread to reach them. NOVA May event

Check your post in C4 General. Nobody would be better to check out a C4 than *89x2*. Maybe you haven't been on these forums long enough, *89x2* is the mod for the Callaway forum on CAC. If I were to think of buying a car at a distance I would trust Chris's opinion of both the condition of the car and its worth. Rob is very knowledgable also and lives right near there. Either of these guys would be the best you can get for an evaluation.

And I'll probably get nothing but a lousy T-shirt.

Yeah we did install a LOT of gear from her last year and we still have another couple years or so left on the contract. So I'm sure she'll be going on another trip in the near future.

Apparently he contacted Chris after I posted this. THere is really no personal info in his profile so I don't know what's up with him/her.

You tried.

I talked to chris today and he said that the guy IM him because of what you said. That still doesn't explain why he asked for someone to look at a car and two people respond and then he responds with TTT.

When I first read your insult, my first reaction was to ignore you because I didn’t want to through fuel on a flame and secondly, I saw it for what it is; a scream for attention. After seeing your second post, I realize that people like you will keep picking and picking until they are called out for what they are.

So here is your call out.

Actually, I’m not a “LOOOOOSEEEERRRRRRR”. After you responded to my post In C4 General, I looked at several of your previous post in other links and decided that you were an obnoxious jerk and that I really didn’t want to deal with you. So I posted TTT in the hope that someone else would reply.

After viewing your childish attempt to highjack this string in order to insult me, I see that my initial assumption about you is correct.

Have a nice day and thanks again for your offer.

I guess MrSharky won't be invited to any mod parties at Bluewasp's house.

OK, this is going downhill fast!!! When I saw the TTT over in general and saw you responded to me, I tried to help. Rob is the guy who keeps events going in the NOVA group, so he does post a lot. And much of it is just chatter to keep things going.

I would still trust Rob's (Bluewasp's) opinion of a used car, and I hope the bad blood stops right here and now.

You didn't know who either of the respondents really were, and a polite response would have been the right thing to do. We still don't know who you are, your age, or background.

What kind of car were you wanting a look at?

I hope you got the help you needed, and look all of us up if you ever get to a Skyline Cruise.

You're right. And I'm getting pizzed too. I had the same reaction as the rest of you to the TTT, but just tried to be nice. It seems that wasn't appreciated by MrSharky.

Mrs.sharky, I think you are very rude for blowing chris and I off. Rude people in my book are LLOOOSSSEERRSS.. so, in this case you are a lllooosseerrr... Just face it.

I posted that I lived 20 minutes away and I WOULD DRIVE MY OWN CAR, burn my OWN gas to look at the car for YOU. So, if that means I'm a Jerk, fine. Whatever... I don't have time to mess with people like you.

obnoxious jerk? Where? show me....

All I can say is I hope chris doesn't help you and neither will anyone in the NOVA area that I know.

Good luck with your purchase.

LLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSS SSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
