$12,500. The car is worth maybe half that, not counting the tacky mods. Check out the supafly reflective trim glued on the B & C pillars:

What a travesty. Such wonderful cars, only to be treated that way.

EDIT: And the spelling in the ad! Egads.

at least everything that looks like E36 M3 appears to be easily undone.

I kind of like the stripes on the corner of the hood though.

and +1 on the m-stripes

For some reason the repetition of the word "lips" in that ad stuck this in my head: Andrew Bird - "Feetlips"

Agreed, remove all the pep boys stick on crap and it has some potential. Wheels are bigger than my liking but not terrible.

But at 12.5 he needs to step back from the crack pipe.

The stripes on the wagon do remind me a little of this look:

I do like the subtlety of the striping, especially the side.

Even before I saw the pictures, the description of the car lead me to believe some kind of child owned this car.

Can someone please "translate" some of the terms used to describe this car?

Examples:

"Look in and out like a new car see to opinion..."?

".... 20" wheel black and white lip"? (Wheels don't appear to have black and/or white lip)

"Drill rotor racing white..."?

"Rear lip trunk"

Well, you get the idea.

Can someone tell me why folks who seem to have minimal educations wind up with a car like this, and I have to drive a 15 year old Civic?

I'm beginning to wonder if there is not some unwritten rule that which prevents people from posting craigslist ads unless they are stumbling drunk.

After reading the description a few times, I realized that there is a VERY good chance the seller is from a country where English is NOT the primary language spoken.

"Much more over 7,000$ in just the music system..."

Most "local" folks wouldn't put the dollar sign AFTER the amount.

I see it here, I just assumed they were Canadian.

French Canadians put it after, English Canadians put it in front.

Why Did They Capitalize The First Letter Of Every Word?

Pinky exercise.
