Got ya, I have a line on the car I want 2,300 miles. My money doesn't arrive for six weeks. Trying to get a dealer to take a substantial down payment to hold even with a purchase commitment is a tough sell. I might have to just watch the other cars I like sell for six more weeks unless the sales guy I'm talking with can sell his sales manager..

Ghost,

The dossier that I have on you indicates, as a teenager you defrauded Columbia House Records for approximately $66.00 . Is this true ?

Naw wrong guy, I never liked their small print (9 more at "regular club prices") besides, I already told you I have a real deal tough guy in my family not a pretend one, I know what the dealio is. I'm sure some of his pals were in on the Somalian rescue, he used to run out of Italy to there...

Does Somalia have a Craigslist ?

They have pirates, less than they once had but .....

Craigslist is a good place to find bargains but you have to be smart, lots of scammers on free ad sites.

Expect a lot of interested calls, no shows, and low ball offers if you are selling.

Mint 2000 Boxster S with 22,000 miles on it. Meet me at Jakes's Mall behind the Starbucks between 11 and 12 tonite. I only will take cash. Oh, the is key missing so I had to hot wire it. $7500 cash, I leave the country tomorrow at 10am. MUST SELL.

That has syndicate written all over it .

I guess you missed the part about not really needing or wanting to sell it and just putting it on there to see if I get some hits. The situation is I love this car and its been really good to me but if someone wants to take it off my hands at 14gs, that's 14gs less debt I'll be in.

Honestly I can't imagine not having this car, so I'm thinking of using my tax $ to do the IMS retrofit and just keeping it...


To add to the first list I got an offer today for a 1990 Supra making "800hp"

I didn't miss it. That was the point- if you don't want to sell it, why is it on CL? Potential buyers and tire kickers are not the only ones wasting peoples time out there in classified land...

Have fun either way :cool:

all i have is $6000 and a girl friend that I wont be needing after we meet. I will throw her in and no returns. Can we make it around 12:30.

Many years ago (pre CL) when selling a car I had a good old boy from Kentucky offer cash and some of his best hunting dogs for it, he was dead serious. And no it wasn't old Sam in the avatar although he is indeed a heckuva birder.

Cause to me, everything is for sale. I don't want to not have my boxster but if someone offers me 14gs it wont be in my garage anymore. Then I go the complete opposite way and start building my 63 Chevy panel truck instead.

Update: Have some guy who came out and looked at the car and offered me $12gs for it. I think thats a little low, but I might just take it and move on. Meeting with them again tomorrow, and we will see what happens

Send pictures of girlfriend.....

I think you mentioned in another thread that you worked as a mechanic for many years.
I would include that in the title or description "professional mechanic owned".

My indy is restoring an old Carrera. I'd buy with a lot more confidence from a mechanic than a non-enthusiast.


p.s.
I posted an ad online for old car. I had a phone call within 45 seconds of hitting the send button. The guy was already trying to low ball me. LOL

Nice, I'm currently shopping and saw your add. Its funny the offers you'll get, I was selling a snowboard earlier this year and some of the offers I had where just awesome. good luck with the sale :)
