Oh and the paint job on this poor GTZ is kind of off, I mean it's been repainted you can tell by the paint job on the door handles, which come black on these cars, not garnet.

I'd ask him what the price would be without the cheesy body kit. Maybe he will bring it down to 1/2 price again :P

This by far is my favorite statement on the $2500 one:
Speedometer reads 15 miles faster due to larger tires.
Larger? Are you serious? Smaller tires make it faster, not larger ones. I know this for certain having swapped base wheels and the A'Rs on the base. It goes faster on the gauge when on a smaller tire when using a GPS to measure it by.

And damn, this thing has lots of problems for the asking price. More like 1000, and that is a big fat maybe.

Looks like someone kicked the front fender. Then there is the little problem with the front bumper. Shows what a good punk a$$ kid can do to a car.

I was going to say, he did some mods to increase the price! There is a new dent and he polished the wheels!

Dude that dent has to add atleast $1000 dollars to the price! Not to mention the cracking under the passenger headlight..

Shame though, looks like it was pretty nice before they got their hands on it. Sounds like he fucked the trans up as well if I read the ad right.
