Drinking and posting ads don't mix

...unless you just want everybody to know what an a-hole you are and not get responses. Don't tell 'em what body style it is. Refuse to post photos. Offend as many people as possible.

I like...

Give him credit for being sooooooo honest. He does posted some good questions but I don't know if he will make a sale. Good one.

Exactly Bill, the "B*tch" here is not the car.
An '89 in a desirable color, in original paint ... what a total Muppet.

Wife: "Have you listed that stupid Porsh for sale yet like you said you would???"
Husband: "Yeah, I did, but I'm not getting ANY replies. Market's terrible. I should really keep it until the market gets better."

(Granted, the price is not far out of line for a G50 if it's nice)

Fun read....

If it's a real (non-metallic) slate grey '89 (9" rear Fuchs) coupe in good condition with original paint, $18k looks like a good price to me.

The entertainment value is certainly spot on, but not for a real ad. It does make one wonder what the story behind the ad is, and if it was in any way legit.

I actually am interested in the car! I like the add, and it really tells the story. He has a car that has been used and now he wants to sell it. Come see it, drive it, and either buy it or get lost. Nice...

I've farted in my 930 a couple of times - OK more than a couple, does that mean I have lowered the value? how would you be able to tell? Sniff the seats?

If I was in the market, I would be on the phone in 5 seconds after reading the ad, because he's honest.
