Power "Wailtail"
http://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/o...ationFlag=true
This one has a "Wailtail". There is no indication in the add why the spoiler makes so much noise. Maybe it has something to do with the "rocket" transmission.

A W-H-A-L-E tail is one thing. A W-A-I-L tail is something else completely. I am just not sure what.

hahahaha... oh I got ya, the dealer put that in the description. I wondered why it was spelled "wail" instead of the correct "whale". Guess the seller is implying that when you attempt to lift the spoiler, it malfunctions thereby causing you to "wail" in pain. hahaha

Ha... those exchanges from other RL members (including myself) were tough at times, but necessary IMHO. It's unfortunate, because the seller could have sold the car with full disclosure and kindness. But it seems he was very defensive and condescending to those making appropriate technical comments and asking practical questions about the condition of his 996. To say it when south, is putting it mildly. ha! Regardless, I hope he sells it because frankly, it looks like a decent restoration, but I'd still recommend a thorough PPI to rule out any future issues.

Nowhere else I have seen a few uneducated "experts" opinions treated like gospel.
Where a persons comments can be completely misconstrued. (for instance the quote was explaining that the engine/transmission were not damaged when the car was hit "As the owner of this car, I can tell you that the rear impact only effected the rear quarter panel, well over a foot away from the engine and transmission." )
The libel in this thread costs honest people tens if not hundreds of thousands dollars. 99% of the time the "opinions" in this thread are from people who have never seen a car in person, yet are compelled to post negative "opinions" about said car.
b3freak, I also recommend deleting all posts/pictures related to the libelous information as I am reporting this thread. This thread cost my car selling unfairly and unjustly in the past and I am not going to sit idly by and have it happen again.

And he's back without first picking up a clue along the way
Please do come back and let us know after you pay a lawyer a good deal of money to tell you that you don't know what libel is.
The entire purpose of this thread is to give honest opinions based on the information presented. In the case of your car it did that quite effectively by debunking your outrageous claims and uncovering true information that you preferred was kept from any potential buyer.
Quoted for posterity since you suggest others delete their posts:

I'll let others chime in, but regardless, I hope you sell it for fair market value based on the true history of the car.

There are obviously some personality conflicts, but he is trying to sell what appears to be a good car. If it passes a good PPI that confirms quality repairs I still think it was a good deal at the original $15k and it's a steal at $10k.
