OK,the 10K reserve is a bit high. The mods are a little extreme.. Dont get me wrong, it may be a very nice and clean car..but..

..drumroll please..

How could you tell? GOOD GOD man, if you wanna sell you car on e-bay with a starting bid of 10 large, give the people more than 3 thumbnail pictures.. My avatar is larger than those!
Is Toyota red better than Guards (The world knows THAT as "Porsche" red..)

I don't see that it's been converted to a turbo... I guess it's possible - or it could have a small block under that hood pimple. If not, that price would take the cake for most expensive NA I've ever seen.

Driven 700mi/year last 5 years, timing belt done at 60K, checked at 70K, would probably put the timing belt at 6-7 years old?

It looks like it might be a pretty nicely redone n/a, but no way worth that much. . . The lack of pics is kind of scary. Then again, the guy's in Omaha. Maybe they haven't heard of them newfangled gadgets there, like digital cameras. . .

Having been to Omaha, I was surprised at what a nice town it really is.

I guess I'll have to put my "Zen Moments" in my sig line.. I will miss being called "Lothar".

Oh. BB- it's called a GOITER!

It might have been from the free listing frenzy. With nothing to lose people put lots of crazy stuff up there to see if it sells. No downside.

Maybe it's part of his plan to make sure that you get a new engine, too...

Either way, it needs to be removed. I'm ready for the surgery!
