Looking at eBay again, this time for cars less than $1000, and came across whatever the 🤬 this is.


Anyone able to identify whatever it is covered in? (Not sure if it is a modification or if nature put it there...)

Here is the seller's description:

Title: Engine is pretty good, nothing else is!

"We bought this car in '95 and have been driving it ever since. Engine uses a little oil, not bad though. Everything else is broke, rusted, dirty, crappy, soiled, bent, upsetting or inconsiderate. Rocker panels are rusted, small window missing, front tire has leak, shocks/struts are 100% gone. Riding in this car is bouncy, loud, dusty and extremely annoying. No A/C, no radio. Tail lights don't work, but break lights, headlights etc do work. The material is falling off the inside ceiling of the car."

And on the item specifics:

Interior color: Dust

Exterior color: Mud

P.s, isn't there a thread for funny car ads?


EDIT: Just seen this part at the bottom:

"This car bounces so bad you'll feel like your internal organs are being re-arranged. We've been driving it back and forth to school but its driving us crazy. If we don't get $550 for it its going to the junkyard or donation. But I don't want to haggle with anyone - don't have time. If you want it and have $550 cash you can have it. Otherwise don't waste our time!"

The only people's time you're wasting is your own by asking $550 for something that is too crappy for even a junkyard. I'd offer them $.75, but no more, and only if they deliver it.
The last part... Wouldn't even buy this for the $.75 they're scrapping it for

Capris and Testarossas don't mix.

They could have at least swapped those rims for something a little mor-

Oh. Nevermind. Still looks like an ungainly mess.

Christ, even the Mk3 coupe conversion you posted looks half-decent in comparison. Stupid front light covers included.

Matte brown Benz. :scared:

It looks like someone smeared **** all over it. :lol:

Brown is the new black again. Just like in the 70s.
 
Is that the coupe?

Doesn't look half bad.
Indeed. Mine's an '09 EX-L Coupe in red. Except that, for whatever reason, it has the 2.0L VTEC from the Si under the hood. My best guess is that the previous owner (who was an absolute nutjob) swapped it in because he couldn't drive a stick.

For a FWD car with a slushbox, I rather enjoy driving it. I'd much rather have a proper Si, but trying to get my mom to sign off on a manual was impossible, even if it was my money.
