Another scam on autotrader

http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?ca...=&cardist=1238
Does that look funny to anyone else? Like how it had a new turbo manifold and it has headers? or how its at a dealer but new mods are done daily? and $40k for a talon

Re: Another scam on autotrader

I found a few "shady" sellers on there. One guy was trying to sell a 96 tsi for $6k but only to out of state sellers. The picture had the car sitting in a field with the front bumper hanging off and it said it was in the shop being "fixed" so it probably has a salvage title. What people will do these days

Re: Another scam on autotrader

Anyone else notice that is has a new exhuast manifold and headers? What a jackass. $7000 is a prett bad ass tranny, I dont thinks Sheps dog box is even that much.

Re: Another scam on autotrader

$40 thousand for a Talon, when we don't even know what it looks like and if what he's saying is even true. I think somebody should call him and seriously ef with him.

Re: Another scam on autotrader

but yanno our granny shifting and not double clutching or shifting 10 times per drag would really impede our ability to make it go fast...

I bet the floor plan even fell out of his car at some point.
