We are selling to willing buyers at the current fair market price, even if we know it has no value.

How does he even get in that thing? Is there a fold down staircase in the door like on private jets?

I saw a guy get into one at a gas station once, and it looked easy enough: grab the nerf bar and climb up the front tire.

That appears to be aluminum tape (the kind you actually use for HVAC ducts as "duct tape" doesn't last worth a poo poo on them). That "repair" is pretty typical on beaters around here as it satisfies the no holes into the passenger compartment rules for inspection.

Got stuck behind a rare and powerful VW "GTIR" today, but wasn't able to get a photo :( Was smoking quite a bit and doing 55mph in the fast lane on the highway. Going nice and slow to show off his racing stripes, I think.

It's a Dodge Stealth. He wouldn't pop the hood, so I can only assume and hope it's a non-turbo. Interesting use for Scion headlights... and what looks like tractor trailer taillights.

Whenever I see that, I assume the car has been in an accident and whoever rewired the rear taillights had no idea what they were doing.

I usually figure that the NSS is completely gunked up and/or shorted out or badly misaligned.

Or it was a late 70s/early 80s Holden (Isuzu) Gemini and the reverse light switch sometimes got tripped when you put it into 5th gear.

My boss just got the curtains done (5% limo on every window except the windshield) on his TL and you literally can't see out of the windows on a sunny day if you're wearing sunglasses. It looks cool but I can't imagine that driving any time after dusk would not be a huge hazard.
