They've Got to Be Kidding, $20K for a Totaled GT500?

Sorry to any folks who've already seen this (found it on another forum)... Check out the braniac dealer who thinks he can get $20k for a totaled GT500 (was rolled in a high speed police chase). Seriously, they've got to be out of their mind...

Here's the ebay link:

Can't you just picture yourself cruising down the highway in that car... well, I mean the car's on a flatbed and you're not really in it, because of the whole "it's been crushed" thing, but hey at least the drive train looks good, right?!

Did anybody catch the line in the description...

"DRIVE LINE LOOKS OKAY."

Not quite sure I'd trust that engine. The blown 5.4 is tough, but that front end is pretty much toast.

The left windshield wiper seems to be in good shape, maybe the left rear tire.

This should be fun.

Drive line looks okay... Drive line looks okay... is he f&$*!@ serious?

No transport necessary im sure, looks like you could drive it off the lot. Should be as good as new in a few days. Most of that should buff right out.

If there is one good panel on the whole car i would be suprised, though the seats might be in good shape.
