Normally, I dont mess with sellers, but this is really rather incredible... A member sent me an email asking me if a 20 year old car becomes a classic, does it revert back to its original selling price, because this guy is sellin his Supra saying that it will if its under 30K miles... So I told him, if that were true, I'd go buy a 69 Camaro SS under 30K miles for $2500 *original price* and take it to Barrett Jackson and auction it for $200,000... So I decided to find this Supra on ebay... The sellers horibly vague ad and description need no further introduction...

Enjoy, then feel free to discuss: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1989...08QQihZ020QQcategoryZ6447QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Sounds like a pretty good sales pitch to me. It almost made me want to buy it from him. If I can get fifty thousand dollars for it in two years, I'd be an idiot not to buy it..................dammit, I'll be right back. I'm going to ebay.

Will someone PLEASE tell me who the FUCK paid over 32 GRAND for a friggin NA NON TURBO MKIII... Seriously, that's like paying 30K for a V6 Mustang...

Oh, and it has only 25K miles, however the AC does NOT work and the exhaust system doesnt work? Wait... Read this with me people... The EXHAUST SYSTEM... DOES... NOT... WORK!!! How in the hell do you break an exhaust system so it wont work?

You see the name of the one bidder? BIDDER 1... You think it's him bidding his own car?

Oh and I sent him this: So this car could be worth $50,000 someday? I was wondering if you have any more pictures of the car, as your ad is incredibly vague, lacking adequate pictures, documentaion and description. A $2000 stereo system sounds great, but exactly what components do you have? Also, I'm greatly interested in the proof of your claim that a 20 year old car with less than 30 thousand miles will revert back to the original manufacturers retail price. I'm always looking for a good investment. Thanks.

I was severly biting my tongue not to say anything too critical or mean, I actually want him to correspond with me... :)

Well he posted his answer:

I spoke to several antique car dealers and got that info. Is it an axiom? Probably not as it depends on supply and demand of course. If I come across a person who collects Supras and wants a 1989 to complete their collection I'm sure I'll get as much as I want. The reason one pic is there is the car is mint on the outside and the ad is not mean't to be the final and only mode of selling it. By that I mean I expect the person who bids to come and see the car in person before they make a final decision. Now perhaps thats not how ebay works its my first time using it but I assumed the buyer would look at the car in person and drive it before buying it. I would not hold anyone to a bid if they didn't want the car when after seeing and driving it. If your really interested I would speak to a few dealers about the car and its value do to low milage and I will list the type of radio equalizer boom box and speakers the car has. This car is a superb investment but do some research first and let me know.

He is either really gullible or hopes he finds someone who is.

Calm down RHDMK3. I agree, this guy is retarded, but there's no reason to kill him in front of his kids. This guy needs a serious lesson in life, starting with a severe ass whooping for waisting peoples time reading his ad.

One more thing, Tanya, I love that 77 Supra. That is some serously funny shit!

Chillax bro I was just kidding around. I dont think that people need to be killed because they think that their respective ride is worth as much brand new even though its 17 years old.. Who knows maybe he put that up there for our amusement? What if, gasp, it belongs to a member here on this forum?
