I'm okay with this. What's wrong with doing this?
>>15480102
it's fucking stupid and unnecessary. Your license plate is exposed every time you drive. The average person can't get any important information from it.
>>15480102
1. It's pointless
2. When people do this they always take the picture in portrait mode, and sometimes even manage to focus on the finger so that the fucking car is blurry
3. Even if they don't fuck it up, it still looks stupid
>>15480073
If you need a loan to buy a car you shouldn't be buying much of anything

Turns out the prior owner was a Marine who wife cheated on him, and he blew his brains out in the STI.

Probably had PTSD. I lived in a Marine town, some of them are so fucked up. Met one guy, he wouldn't drive over anything in the street would swerve around stuff, because in Iraq he watched his best friend killed when a IED blew the Humvee apart.
>>15480724
Oh man what a bad one. Rip

i left a paramedic sticker on my first car. never got pulled over
>>15480102
>I'm okay with this. What's wrong with doing this?
It can be someone else's car. They just have that as a model to show you. They need you to appear in person. Since you are buying, your bank account will have the money in it.
They attack and detain you. They force you to hand your ATM card over with code. If it doesn't work, then you will have a finger bashed with hammer. Can't prove it was them that did it. After they withdraw the daily limit, they then go around to buy store gift cards with the debit card. And merchandise. They can buy a lot since you have enough money in your bank account now to get a car.
Time for you to transfer money from your 401K into your bank account. It will be wired for immediate transfer. Thank you for supporting lives that matter.

>>15484077
A lot of times when I see cars listed at $1, $5, $10, in the ad description they're actually looking for $1k, 5k, and 10k. It's just shitty if you're looking for something cheap and see a mint 370z on page one for $20.
>>15484695
Those ads are 200% worthless. They don't post the actual price because it's always too high and they know it. It's fucking infuriating
>has had lots of work put into it
>not a single fucking receipt to be found
>>15484077
So their ad shows up for more broad searches. That's why you'll see paragraphs at the bottom of every word related to the vehicle including other makes/models.
