Talking Epic Craigslist Ad of the Day

Hoping the Mods will sticky this. Seeing how there is a plethora of funny craigslist ads, lets post the funny, rediculous and idiotic. Keep them clean though.

i met a beautiful girl at a club in the 90's, she said she had a lemans. wow. i said me too.
walked her out to her car for a kiss goodnite.
i'm sayin wheres the lemans?
she says here. my jaw dropped.
i blurted out "this is what they did to the lemans?" "i hope they dont make a GTO outta this"
i saw her again and showed her a real lemans.
now she's the mother of one of my kids; we arent together now but we laugh about this sometimes...
btw: it ran good but eventually bursted into flames.

Just ended. $610 and doesn't meet the reserve.

Let's put this into some kind of perspective. In Sept. 2006, I paid $950 for a 1990 Grand Am with 73,000 miles and working a/c, not 273,000 miles like that POS. I still have the car. The difference is I thought and still think the car is also a disposable car that was probably worth like $800-$850, but I needed another car and there it was.

So, a little shy of his original asking price of $9950. Yet, $610 is still 4x what it's worth...

People see a Judge convertible get $300K, so heck an 89 Lemans (hey, it's only 20 years newer than a 69!) must be worth $10K! So, I'll give people a bargain and price it a little less.

Geez, this guy must be related to the LeMans guy. I didn't know blue POS '89 Pontiacs were all the rage now.

Are you saying that next week he'll be selling a T1000 and show the GTO tag in his hand and say" it's a true GTO and have data plate to prove it"? LOL.
