Default How Funny Is This on Ebay?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2417517879

This guy cliams that by adding a JRSC and a few bolt ons that he has 335 HP. He also thinks he has $50,000 worth of work done. He is trying to get $25,000 for the car, but, besides from the bolt ons, and some of the ugliest wheels, it is definitely not worth $25,000.

Man, what a crook. Seems like he's an English major too, with all that fancy narrative and description. "Have you ever wanted to know what it feels like to be Batman?".... LOL!!! I fell out of my chair reading that...

Someone should email that seller and ask him to itemize his $50,000 of work, and provide track slips proving his claimed 5-90 mph in "8 seconds"... That would make his 1/4 something like 10s or 11s, wouldn't it? Good lord... what a fake asshole.

And those ugly ugly ugly wheels....!!!!

If you read carfully, I can see why he's asking that much.

2001 Prelude with 22675 miles on it. That's barly driven! And with the amount of mods he put on it, (3000$ JRSC, I could see why. Try finding a 2001 with >30000 miles onit for a good price. especially one with a JRSC and all the mods he has. BlueBook value is 20,400.

yeah, but did you read the WHOLE ad? He claims, right at the bottom, that if you win, you'll be buying a "$50,000.00 car with $100,000.00 performance". My a$$! Even WITH the low mileage, AND the JRSC, and his flowmaster, etc etc etc, no WAY is that car worth $50k, or $100k perfomance-wise. Bottom line, he's full of bs. I e-mailed him to ask if he had a dyno printout he could e-mail me... something tells me I shouldn't expect a reply, after all, how can he have a dyno printout that claims 335hp for his car when his car never put out 335hp at the wheels? What a scam.

Lol, true, quite wordy. Then again, words are affordable when talk is that cheap.
