If you don't buy it....you'll regret it for the rest of your life. The stickers are great, and good for 25hp!!

If he throws in some fuzzy dices for the rear view mirror, I'll sell my 996 in a heartbeat.

The >30# chrome rims and 4x4 stance helps 'power' the 92hp engine down the drag strip. I'm asking him for a dyno sheet for his racing project.

"Sweet car! Will you take a straight-up trade? I've got a perfect rebuilt 911/996 alternator. Let me know."

lets look at this ad.....

1) Hey there well there goes, (what the hell does that mean?)

2) i have to sale my Racing project that i have work for years but now times are bad and it has to go.... (never mind the caps for the I, he must SALE the car that he had WORK on for years)

3) it a 84 honda civic crx, (yup that what a it a is a)

4) with a semi new engine on it with only 70 xxx miles on it the car is beautiful (we went over this)

5) the only thing wrong with it is.....that the tags are expired since 2004 so its like 400 or so in back fees on the dmv... (yup back fees ON the dmv - note this is the only thing wrong with it)

6) and i dont have the money so has to go....the price is pretty much FIRM...cause i know how much this car is worth and the amount of time and work that i put into it....lol..... (why LOL? was the work funny, or the money lost)

7) CASH ONLY...NO SHIPPING...NO LOWBALLERS...AND NO JOY RIDERS, cause it doesnt have tags.... (so .... no test rides?)

8) my name is Francisco and my # is 408 648 8840, thanks (those wheels make sense now)

- just having fun, I hope it sells for the guy
