Someone tried to buy my car...

[CBT]

...this morning at a red light. I hear "Excuse me sir." So I look to my left, a guy in a Ford Ranger says "Would you consider selling your car?" I said "Nope, there's other Marauders for sale, check online." He said "I've been looking, can't find a blue one." I said "Well, they're out there, good luck." Light turned green, we rolled on. I goosed it a little for his benefit.
Saturday night I was beside a guy at a light, he was in a new Challenger, orange with flat black hood, numbers of some sort stuck to it, his tag had NT VENOM on it. He asked what my car was 1 of 327 of, so I told him, he said cool, it looks great, he asked what size engine, told him 281. He said "Like the Cobras?" Uhhhh....yeah I said. He said Yeah I had a Cobra Mustang, traded it in for this. I said Is that what your tag means, Anti Venom? He said Yeah. By now the light is green and we are rolling side by side about 15-20 miles an hour. And then he floored it, I knew he was going to, and of course so did I. Big ol' Marauder instantly drowned him out and I dogged him bad enough to get in front of him and take his lane, muhahahahaa. You all know what he did about 15 seconds later, :burnout:fly-by. I just waved, didn't even look over. I don't post every compliment the car gets, but these two were pretty cool.

Street racing kills.

[Cheeseheadbob]

No, people in cars doing stupid things kill. Flooring it on a open and clear straight away does not constitute street racing. Running your ricer at 110mph with your lights off down a major highway at 0300 along side an equally stupid person, is street racing.

We were on the sidewalk. Want to buy a slightly dented stroller?

A guy tried to buy my car a couple of weeks ago... Pulled up in front of my house in an LX Sport I had seen in the neighborhood a couple of times and asked if I wanted to sell and I said never and he said "never huh?" I said yeah... he said I understand completely!

I know, right? A few minutes later, I thought to myself "Damn, I said no without any hesitation whatsoever", so I guess I really like my car. But, everything has a price.

[Egon Spengler]

I thought the same thing! haha I was like... wait a minute! What was he going to offer!?!?!? COME BACK!!!! haha

Here's one better Bob.
Here in Toronto, the ricers like to do that on city streets! Think of it: intersections; people; kids; pets and animals....
That's what kills....STUPIDITY!

[MrBluGruv]

My general response to people who ask if I'll sell them mine is that they'd have to make me independently wealthy before I'd even consider it.


To me, it's not just a case of having a rare care, it's MY rare car, with a soul of its own that makes it special to me. To me, it'd almost be like trying to sell a family member (that you actually love...).

[Egon Spengler]

Just give me what I owe on it and they can take it away! I owe more than it is worth!

[Vortex]

Everything I own is for sale at the right price.

[Egon Spengler]

Exactly! Any takers on my soul????

Who is this? Dom?!

[dpotter]

I'd sell my MM for enough to cover my next ride; 2007 or newer mint Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT, blue of course. $60K might cover it :)

[Glockafella]

I'd sell mine for enough money to buy DOOMs ride...;)

[TiTo35]

I get those guys often...most of them time I tell them sure gimme 10k for it and its yours!

[Cheeseheadbob]

I would sell mine for 35K. Purchase price: 20K. Mods cost: umpteen K. Currently the 17th fastest Marauder on record. Mods list upon request, give me a day or two to complete the list.:D All reasonable offers over 32.5K will be entertained.

I have to keep the outside sharp, since I can't compete with you superduper charged folks once the hood gets popped. Also recently I've had 2 seperate carloads of teeny boppers honk and wave, one was even revving me at a light and nudging forward to get my attention. I looked over and saw 4 gals and litterally said "What the fu...!!" and they all started giggling. I turned my ball cap around and leaned forward like "It's go time!" Then, I let them take off at the light and win, they probably posted the kill on some 4 door Tercel fansite. Schools out, new teen drivers, everyone be careful!
