I can't believe this guy!!!

Whats the big deal with this car? Other than a body kit and some other minor mods it seems like a pretty stock GT, and this guy is asking almost 50K..What goes???

He probably thinks your allowed to add the cost of your mods to the selling price plus personal dealer mark-up.

It's the black stripes....they added 200 hp! I should have gotten them instead of the white ones which only add 100 hp.

I guess when you drive the car off the lot and do some exterior mods the resale value doubles

Maybe somebody (spouse or significant other) told him he had to sell it.
This way, it doesn't sell, and he has the ad as proof he's trying.

He's probably one of those guys that had to have the first 05 on the block and paid $10k over sticker....... then he expects to get every penny back for each and every mod that he's done to the car...... then obviously he has added his own "market adjustment" LOL......
