A Boxster with 20 inch spinners will look just as bad as an Escalade with 4 inch wheels (it looks ugly enough as it is already). Yeaaaaa
Buick is actually not ripping off Maserati. Some older Buicks which predate the Quattroporte came with those vents as well...

None of you noticed the same seller is also selling this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270421782143QQssPageNameZMERC_VIC_RCRX_Pr3_Pc Y_BID_IT&refitem=270415737550&itemcount=3&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&usedrule1=CrossSell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget&_trksid=p284.m183&_trkparms=algo%3DCRX%26its%3DS%252BI%26itu%3DSI%25 2BUCI%26otn%3D3

Now....I do not want to make a comment that might seem racist.....but I wonder....about.....ummm....no....lets not go down that road.

I am not even 100% sure that "pumps" are but I assume those are the things that make the car jump up and down?????

130k on the odometer. And he didn't even clean out the trunk before shooting a pic of it for the listing.

Paint looks decent for a salvage title though.

I'd give him 2 large for that car. Not a dime more though.

The 'junk in the trunk' is probably the box of parts they took off to repair it and didn't know where to put back.

The bid on the Cadi is up to $215.39

Seems like a strange number. I think I might bid $216.00 to help the brother out.
