Gotta love those "Brand new, sustained readily repairable damage on a test drive from dealership" cars ... the Corvette's a beauty!

What's scary is 15000 vehicles each week? Holy crap.....literally. Even more reasons to be wary of a car when you buy one. Wonder how many of those get "doctored" up and somehow find their way back to market without a blemished title

Too many I'm guessing. I recommend everyone go to a used car auction as well as it really open your eyes as to where a lot of the used cars come from and what they sell for.

So many FLOOD cars. I would rather buy a car with some body damage than water damage. You might get a fish swimming up your a$$!!!

Whoa this is creepy im not saying its a scam i could be wrong but i remember looking at that website at least 2 to 3 years ago and many of those cars were there then!!!! Even some of the ones that said not yet available. My guess is you join up and you wont find any of those cars actually for sale on there. I could be wrong just seems kind of suspicious.

probably a good way to soak people for twenty bucks. A great scam, how many people will try to get back twenty bucks. I remember back in school sending 30 bucks to learn how to buy siezed vehicles, big old waste of money. Live and learn.

Nice car. My neighbor's family has a 906. One amazing car. It has been basically sitting in their living room down the street from me. I haven't seen it for a while, but I will see if I can snap a photo of it from the street later today if it is there.

it's a scam. they got my money. There was a post about a year ago about the TT that was on there and still is. You end up at some national register for problem cars. Not worth it.
