So I was browsing Ebay for Maxima's.... and um...

If ANYONE can make it through this entire car description without having the sudden urge to gouge your eyeballs out with a fork; there's something wrong with you. Haha, anyone know this guy/car???

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1991-...QQcmdZViewItem

 

Don't know him, but he sure did not listen while in school ! Geez, french is my first language and I can write better than him ! Oh well, atleast I understood that his car is vary fest ! JK

 

where did he go george where did he go?

 

I love the vin # too. 0000000000000 ftw!

 

Hahahaha, I saw that yesterday. Absolutely incredible.

 

someone just go steal it since he is not there!

 

wow...

i hope hes not trying for Special Forces or maybe he is...

 

As a member of the U.S. Military, I cringe more than most of you. At least he spelled military correctly. If by L.A. he means Los Angeles, he must be a Marine. I would believe that. They don't need to know how to read or write, just kill people.

At least I know he's not in the Navy.

940 is a north Texas area code. Makes me wonder...

 

Ok, wikipedia says the 940 area code covers Sheppard Air Force Base which seems to be just a training facility. He must have gone there between boot camp and L.A.

I just lost a lot of respect for the Air Force. Of course, I didn't have a lot to begin with... lazy bastards.

 

Msg to seller.

"They let you in the military with no grammar skills?

BTW, they don't make proformance axles for these cars."

 

I read that aloud to my homeschooled (they are allergic to immunizations)
5th and 7th graders. OUCH!!!!!

No joke, I really do feel bad for this chap. Grammar really matters. I teach my children that it is usually the first, or perhaps the only, impression people will ever get of you. Make it a good one.

What does his future hold, if his academic background is so ill-equipped for real life? It is truely sad. I do wonder what state passed him. I don't mean that ugly, I mean that to say, what were their standards?

Swee

 

Item: Nissan : Maxima (120095754396) This message was sent while the listing was active. justintylerq is the seller. Thanks! napa makes proformance axles bacause with the stock power you can twist the axles. It is a hire grade of material.it's not light wate.the last owner put them on after going threw his third axle

 

Ok - Contrary to what every one else thinks, I think this is one smart dude trying to pull a scam. Look at his payment method. You pay with untraceable system and no recourse and supposidly have to pick up a car sitting 1500 mile away.

 

Yep, I've heard of this before.

 

Why pull a scam with such a cheap car? If you're going to scam somebody, why not market a Ferrari or something?

Also, @ stock power twisting axles. Has nobody told him that the primary purpose of an axle is to twist???

 

Think about the kind of person who will come after you if they are buying a Ferrari as compared to the kind of person who will be buying a 91 maxima.

 

He probably wouldn't have even made it into the military 5 or 6 years ago. They've had to kind of lower their standards lately. The ranks have been pretty depleted.

 

Sounds like a tool to me.

 

So should I go check it out?!

 

Doooooooo iiiiiiiittt!!!

 

shuddnt soch a hi proforminc kar haev an inflaytd frunt tier? Yeah definitely sounds fishy. First of all... 200k miles to the dot, no VIN, no inspection.

HEY!! get a look at the front plate!!! Anyone recognize the design? That'll tell you where the picture is from.

"Buy safely
1. Check the seller's reputation
No feedback reviews at this time
2. Learn how you are protected

Free buyer protection coverage
eBay provides up to $20,000 in fraud protection for this vehicle."

 

Still though, how about something a bit more expensive than an old 200k maxima, a car actually worth more than a couple of hundred bucks.

 

.....Even the Air Force needs janitors......

 

Invalid vin#, 0 feedback,the payment options AND over doing the grammatical errors = scammer.

 

may you tell me what he would do?

 

Anyone bold enough to call the number he posted? I wanna hear how the guy talks!

 

yeah I will tomorrow./ ill speaker phoneit and record it on my pc for you guys.

 

I hope nobody drives the car with the tire that low on air.

 

You could probably scam 10 people out of 1,000$ each and not have as much trouble as scamming 1 person out of 10,000$. It's all about drawing as little attention as the scammer can.

 

Well, it looks like he/she drew the WRONG kind of attention - from the .org-y!!!

 

And it's not like stock power (160 or 190 either one) is going to torsionally shear an axle, let alone three, which is what I assume is what he was trying to make you think.

 

Assumming he did indeed go through that many axles, then I would question the extent and kind of damage he refers to in the auction. I looked at a max one time, beautiful interior and exterior, good looking engine bay. However, something was off just a bit. After looking closely, engine was sitting crooked. Car had been hit hard up front. Perhaps damage along this line might cause premature where of axles?

 

Item: Nissan : Maxima (120095754396) This message was sent while the listing was active. justintylerq is the seller. its not a scam im a vary honest person ill talk to if u wold like my cell is 940-224-0219 im not out to screw u.its not like im saying it is a top of the line street car.now that i make more i bot a new tiburon.the car is at my moms house a lot of pepoul have said thay wont it but never have the mony.im 19 i joned the air force in july and my mom wonts it out of the yard.im not looking to get top doller for it just somthing to play with.

my old caravan SNAPPED it's axle in half with stock power (158 hp, 203lb ft of torque)

regardless, it is probably a scam, a low buck one so the individual counts if prosecuted are minor and easily beaten.
Scammers aren't stupid.

oh, and if there is no vin listed then the car may also have a salvage title. they won't let you list a car that has any flaw with the title based on an experian autocheck (catches more than Carfux)

 

geeeeezus!!!

 

Even if he is legit, I would be wary about buying a car from somebody who "tried to fix the problems but couldn't figure it out". Been there done that.

Word to the wise, if you are working on a car and can't figure something out, read up or get help. Too often blindly fixing a problem only causes more problems.

 

LOL damn thats just sad. Saying that he just bought a Tiburon has me worried. Got me hopeing he dosnt join Newtiburon.com They will flame the hell out of him for his spelling!

 

i broke an axle in a new minivan...... but of course it was a kia...... the guy seems like a scammer, i want real pics of the car....... and see hid perfoarmance axles... LOL

 

Wow, if he really has that hard of a time spelling and using proper grammar, I feel damn sorry for him. But hell, you are smart enought to put an ad up on e-bay, but you cant figure out how to use a spell check?
