^- '91, red. With freaking CHROME HUBCAP SPINNERS. The poor thing needs to be liberated from the shackles of bling.
me: hey, saw you had a Miata for sale. How much are you asking?
him: 4900
me: :roll: What year?
him: 91
me: how many miles?
him: 120K
me: You realize the KBB value for a private sale in "good" condition is $1900?
him: I have all the service records.
me: So why does that mean you are asking double the blue book value?
him: I need 4900, or 4500.
me: You will never see that. You can get 91 Miatas with high miles in good shape for $2500 all day.
him: I just got an offer for $3900.
me: So why didn't you take it?
him: Because I can rent the car.
me: You think RENTING it to people is going to help the value?
him: So did you call to give me an offer?
me: *click*
I really want to call him back and say "AND WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING PUTTING SPINNERS ON A MIATA???" but that would probably be overkill.
