Is duPont registry fair game?

2010 Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird


2010 Superbird #001-This very limited production vehicle just may be the only 2010 Superbird to exist. Equipped with every option available this Superbird is one of a kind. MSRP $99,950.

"Just may be the only 2010 Superbird to exist." God, I hope so.

"this Superbird is one of a kind". Oh good, glad we got that cleared up.

"MSRP" And that manufacturer would be who? Plymouth? Chrysler Corp? Joe's custom abomination shop?

In his defense, I wouldn't know how to use a CANADA RAIN SENSOR TELESCOPE, either.

why would you dump a mint Cadillac if theres "nothing major wrong with it" this is either a fantastic steal or a loving nightmare

Clicking on the car images in the ad goes to a webpage for something about internet service, DVDs, VHS, and CDs. Could be the car ad is just a bogus attention getter to get people to see whatever the hell that other page is.

I have been kicking around the idea of getting a camper and found this ad.



I'm not really sure what the gently caress he is offering. He'll drive me and my family of snowbirds from Minnesota to Florida for the winter and hang out with us?

In terms of things other than the actual damage to the car (registration, legal, insurance, licensing, and inspections), are there any drawbacks to buying a car with a salvage title?

Thanks for the quick responses. I live in Minnesota where there are no inspections at all. I don't care much about cosmetic damage and I drive all my cars into the grave, so a salvage title might be a diamond in the rough.

On the other end of the spectrum from people who give almost no information...maybe there's TOO much information here?

I'm the same way when I sell a car. I don't like to play games so I tell you everything I know is wrong with the car up front and make a firm price. I really don't like haggling. Found a huge problem? The price is still $3000. Found a super rare option that makes this car worth $7000? The price is still $3000. Here is the car and everything that is wrong with it. Here is my price. Either buy it or gently caress off.

A local auction site is auctioning a decommissioned police 2002 Impala. Nothing too interesting about the car or the ad, but then I saw the video of the car.

I have no loving clue what is wrong with the brakes, but it is probably an easy fix. Less than $50 for sure. Just take my word for it.

For such a fine automobile, you'd think he would take a couple moments to mention some of the upgrades.

The Plymouth Volare (Duster/Roadrunner) made #7 on Car Talk's top 10 list (of the worst cars of the millenium).

Regardless of what Car Talk thinks, I've owned two slant-6 1979 Dusters and loved them even with all their little, uhh, quirks. If California wasn't halfway across the country, I'd buy that Roadrunner in a heartbeat and use it as my daily driver.

I've looked at a lot of for sale ads, but I have never, ever seen one that's lasted for nearly as long as this one:

http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46307

Over 7 years, and still firm on the insane pricing.

Why would he replace the water pump and timing belt at only 12K miles? Is that something you do after X amount of time regardless of how many miles it has been driven? I just don't get it.

I did a search on "Camero" hoping to find something funny, but ended up just being depressed at the sheer number of results that turned up. How do these people own a car and not even know how to spell it? Jesus wept.

This 82' corolla wagon is badass. It would make an awesome commuter or swap candidate.

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/cto/3713776609.html

My dad was real big into 81/82 Corolla wagons (just like that one) for a long time and he must have owned 6-7 of them over the years. Two of them ended up being hand me downs that I owned as a teen and drove for about 5 years. There is nothing special nor badass about them. They were certainly better built and designed a Citation or an Escort from that time period, but I don't see any appeal in them. The manual transmissions were geared low enough that they would launch like a bat out of hell and had great 0-40 times, and they could really fly though deep mud or huge deep puddles if you had a good run because they were light enough not to sink down. I guess if you wanted to buy it to beat the poo poo out if it, it would be fun, but as a daily driver, I think you'd be better off putting that $3000 into something else.

That battle damage looks like a bucket filled with pig rear end. They need to step into the Scale Modeling Thread and learn how to do it right.
