    Selling a car

    For the past three weeks i have been trying to sell my 02 SE-R. and i think i am at a fair price, for what the car is worth and what i am selling it at. but every single person that comes to look at the car is a fucking retard. serisouly. the guy who came to look at it at 5 today was pushing on the car on a shitload of random ass points. i had to open the trunk for him a total of 7 times, cause he wanted to make sure it didnt leak. that is not the way to find out. he also went on for twenty minutes about the fucking A/C. i showed him the part that is broken, and i even used a voltmeter and a piece of wire to show him that the compressor is fine.

    another guy i had turned the radio up so loud that it blew a fucking fuse. he also told me my oil was low. i half chuckled, knowing that the oil had been changed just three weeks ago. i checked it, and i told him you have to push the dipstick all the way into the holder to get a true reading. dumbass.

    another guy told me that since it was an import and with more than 100,000 dollars that the car was worth nowhere near what i posted. he then offered me 1000 dollars. i blatantly told him to fuck off.

    the guy who looked at it today is going to call back later, and hopefully i can get him to buy it. i told him i was lenient on the price, so hopefully he will buy it.

    god damn stupid people!

    You'll find that there are some stupid people out there. And i think they come out of the wood work when a car is for sale.

        I'm use to dealing with older cars. One guy took and beat his fist on the floor trying to check for rust, when he could of just looked under it and seen there was no rust in the floors. It seems that your getting some really odd ball people there.

          yeah, the guy today was picking up and pushing down on the door and the bumpers. and i politely asked him wha the was doing. and he said that he was checking for squeaks for when the car is driving.

          in what circumstance would the car be lifted up primarily by the door? i have no idea what these people are thinking.

              hmm, where did you hide the 100,000 dollars, in the trunk? LMK. I'll be by tonight.

                yup I know how you feel. Had a guy take my old s10 and reverse to drive it at 4500rpm in 4wd then had it toe nailed to the floor board. I was sitting in the pass seat at the tiem, I flipped out on his ass, he said " I was making sure the 4x4 worked". I just told him to get the fuck out of my truck an get the fuck out of my driveway.

                  Mike, what is the year, mileage and asking price on your car?

                      Most used car shoppers don't know what they are looking for so they attempt to fool you into thinking that they do. When I was selling a car I had a guy who kept sticking his finger in the tail pipe like he had some sort of fixation with fingers and holes. And I would have left it at that except for the fact that he did that with the gas tank, valve cover (for the oil) , radiator, transmission dip stick, and the washer fluid.

                      Needless to say that I wouldn't shake the guy's hand. No telling where else his finger has been.

                        When the right buyer comes along, the car will sell easily.. Just ignore these douchebags.
