Needs the oscillating lights on the front fender (like Kit the Firebird.) That paint and the big decal on the hood are really hot! (not!)

I didn't notice the hood the first time I looked. I almost feel obliged to buy it just to undo that horrible paint/graphics job. That's just not right.

Texted with the owner as I'm about 150 miles from Mobile, AL. Should have looked at the map....wheels are located in Mass. Owner apologized and had no idea why the wheels were showing up on CL so far away. I haven't seen them on other local sites so may be legit. Not sure on age of tires. He said they were on his car when be purchased it 4 years ago.

CL instituted a policy of charging $5 for a personal car ad last Mon. They say they're doing it to stop bots, but I wonder what effect if will have on volume of ads? Not sure I want to spend $5 or not. Might look at the FB avenue. 90% of the time I sell my cars on CL.

The new CL $5 policy is interesting. I wonder if dealers will still use it. It will cost a lot to relist their entire inventory. I bet they will jam everything into one large ad.

I look at FB Mart cars pretty frequently. It is mostly sad examples of cars run into the ground with well over 100K miles on them. If you want a decent car its one of the worst places to look. Join PCA, they have lots of Porsches for sale and they are mostly well cared for, Cargurus is another option, but with a mix of junkers and good examples.

Ain't that the truth? I spent about 5 minutes on there this morning and all I found was hoopties. I'm not afraid of high miles, but these cars looked like they had been dragged out of a river. I use Cargurus and AutoTrader.

I agree, but you gotta be careful of CarGurus and Autotrader too. Most of those ads are by dealers. I don't like buying from dealers, they don't know anything about the history of the car. Plus, they're usually more expensive than a private party sale. Plus, most dealers are sleazeballs.

Hopefully doesn't result in more dealers throwing Porsche search keywords into ads for a Kia. Though get a few flagged and deleted and they'll probably stop.

Reminds me of the Johnny Cash song, "One Piece At A Time"
Do a YouTube search if you're not familiar.

I wouldn't expect to find an actual 911 Turbo Cab parked in a neighborhood that looks like that.
