This 2.0 was originally equipped with front and rear sway bars, center console, dual horns, mahle alloy wheels, painted bumpers, no-slide vinyl, and rear annodized roll bar, trim.

This was the so-called "non apperance group 2.0," very rare by same standard.

The quarter panel and fender damaged is easily repaired. We have totally serviced this car so it is ready for the drive home. The transmission is smooth, the engine runs well but has a number four cylinder weak rod bearing.


Was originally equipped? Was equipped with alloy wheels, center console, dual horns? What happened to the stuff?

And about that no-slide vinyl... does that help during autocross? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Ready for the drive home... as long as you don't need turn signals. hehheehhe

So did AA get a new Ebay pusher named Parker? Just curious...

They seem to do pretty well on their Ebay transactions, wonder why a new user name unless they are going to have two of them working it now. My guess would be a parts pusher and a car pusher, but we'll have to wait and see how the drama unfolds.

Hey Zois, you like AA? LOL.

I don't know. I CAN be slightly gullable, but normally not too.

The evidence this may be real:
- it has a vin number on the auction and shows
- someone invested ~$50 into the ad by placing a real car ad instead of a parts ad
- the price is in the target range of what I think they would think they could get
- they refer to "we", and note that they only accept wire transfers on cars, not Paypal like they seem to on parts

hmmm.

Let's hope this is a spoof. Otherwise we sunk to a new low in "truth in advertising". Showing pics of all the rust and calling it "Totally rust free" jeezz (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

It's definately a spoof. I think someone bought something from AA for the last time. The proof is down by all the pictures...look at the comments he made about specifics on the car.... "perfect floor"??? LOL

I laughed my ass off though!!

Gotta give the guy credit. Looks like he got dicked over one too many times by AA, and it was worth the 50 bucks to spoof them.

Here's to parkerautoatlanta..... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

It sure seems like a spoof to me. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
It is a new seller as of June 25th, with no prior history.
Check out the other items for sale by the same seller.
http://cgi6.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISA...utoatlanta&rd=1
All of them are AUTOATLANTA.
I love this line in the one description - If you ever brought your car down here and Dr. 914 saw your seat racks he would probably puke at the thought of them.

That 50 is still cheaper than the shipping they'll charge you for a fif-T cent gasket

Hate to tell you guys, but based on the other auctionS under the same user name, looks like this one is legit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

What was their other seller id? Wonder if it's still active?
