Jim, That's got to be a joke, right? RIGHT? It looks like a cheap imitation of the already cheap Tornado.

Very very sad

Too bad none of these guys know about bigbpainta's $650 all rubber tail.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1808674947

He must need to change the pitch. how about;

Just imagine the "road holding weight" of 50 extra pounds of rubber. . .and thats just off the line. At speed the aerodynamic down force increases with speed. and speed; thats what its all about!
Yes, by far the best tail $ per pound for you porsche . . .or whatever.

please include $75 for shipping this monster

Why am I working? I should just bend sheet metal into "power producing" shapes and sell it to suckers on Ebay. I can't believe people actually fall for this stuff. Makes one think about what else could be sold...

You have got to be kidding.
Quote:
You are bidding on an item that can produce Up to +35HP +31% MPG and that last longer then the car Installes in the less than 5 minutes. Pat., street legal in all states. 30 day money back guarantee starts two days after I ship the item. If you have any questions please email before bidding thanks. Have a great day and happy bidding!!!!
35hp plus 31% better mpg. I can't believe I missed that auction. I am going to write this seller- perhaps he could make one for our cars... Group buy? We can get Thom to test it!


Oh... sometimes Ebayers are just dumb. They bid w/o doing any research- I sold a Nikon N80 camera recently and it brought more $$ than when I purchased it new over a year ago. All it takes is a quick search on Yahoo, or any search engine to see what stuff costs new!

I'm pretty sure that's the bottom of a 2-liter Pepsi bottle. Of course, I'm sure the complex cuts were made on a CNC machine after many hours of vortex calculations. Hence the price.


BTW, I used to sell quite a few 1:43 diecast sportscar models on eBay. Many of these are released in Europe 3-6 months before the USA. Of course, it's just as easy to order these from a website in Germany as one in the US. Nontheless, some people can't figure this out and I sold a number of models that I paid $30 for and sold them on eBay for over $200!! -- Curt
