Ummm....I saw this on Ebay....

One of my Corolla buddies sent this link to me.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2438146019

Ummmmmmm.........is it me, or did the guy want the car that bad....

To each it's own, I guess....you wouldn't catch me paying so much for a AE86, I don't care what condition it's in.

The seller must be laughing right about now......

Just my .02

The winning bidder has 0 feedback. What do you want to bet somebody started up a new account, just to mess around with some auctions, or wipe out their previous bad name?

The winner will come to his senses in a few days (after the euphoria of winning an auction wears off), realize just how much he overbid the thing, and will disappear.

Just watch: in a couple of weeks, the same car will come up for auction again with a very disgruntled seller spouting things like "if you're not going to buy the car, don't bid" and "the last winner jerked me around and wasted my time".

It's too bad, because it ruins the fun for everybody.....

That's exactly what's going to happen. Noticed the winning bidder has no feedback (chance are he's new to Ebay or another one of those fradulent Ebayers).

I have to deal with one right now as we speak. A complete waist of my time. :P

Actually if it was legitamate then the guy could use this to get out of the sale.

Transmission: Automatic

In the pictures I see a manual transmission. Also as we all know the GT-S model only comes in manual.

So he could claim that he thought he was getting an auto car but got a manual instead.
