haha ebay is funny that way. we used to sell miata cup holders on eba, full pop retail was (is!) like $20, dealer cost is like $12. the ebay people would bid it up to $22+ plus shipping, for something they could get anywhere.

The price really went up on that car, yesterday it was at 3500. I am surprised "the fast and the furious," wasn't mentioned in that ad.

I think people are just stupid, and they think that because something is on ebay they MUST be getting a good deal.

this whole thing has you very disturbed...

dont worry, Ill sell your car on Ebay for a bazillion dollars

Description something like this:

"this car once had a racing engine and drivetrain in it, this car once had about 500hp, all you have to do is throw a engine in and go racing"
HA, nobody deserves my car but me.

If I could live with some ricer jackass driving my car after I sold it, I'd list it on E-bay just to make an extra 1-2k. Something like "This car was built for racing, and cars exactly like it sell for 35 thousand. I've put 25000 dollars worth of work into it, but it is missing all the lugnuts from the back rear wheel, which is why i was forced to sell it."

Now you've got the idea.

I'm assuming that he has the stock intercooler. At the best levels required to beat the cars he says he has beaten the motor would become a large hand grenade. Notice that the motor IN the car was imported from Japan, NOT rebuilt.
