se7en Member 8 Member For: 13y 9m 23d Posted 24/04/11 08:22 AM Share Posted 24/04/11 08:22 AM Hey guys I was just talking to this guy on ebay about his car. He says it is a 10 second car, with only 360kw. It appears to have only bolt on mods, and a flash tune.Can anyone tell me what this guys secret it? This car sounds magically special.http://cgi.ebay.com.au/FORD-XR6-TURBO-2004-360-KW-GT-FPV-HSV-XR8-/150594867704?pt=AU_Cars&hash=item23102751f8#ht_585wt_1139Another guy contacted me and asked about the car and the seller, informed me that he had seen the vehicle and that there were heaps of old engines and parts layign around everywhere. Could this be part of the magic?Apparently this guy also has a 500kw 9 second skyline.. is this more magic?? I bet this guys cars dont even pollute.. they just poop unicorns out the exhaust!

Then again im only new to the turbo game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
se7en Member 8 Member For: 13y 9m 23d Posted 24/04/11 08:52 AM Author Share Posted 24/04/11 08:52 AM (edited) The other thing that strikes me as suspicious is that, about a month ago I bid and won this car.Then when I asked the guy (I thought it was a girl on the phone, poor bastard) to send me the rego papers as I am in QLD, so that my finance could finalise my already approved loan.. he rang me up and abused me and asked how I was even goinng to pick it up (I said "fly down" but he didnt seem smart enough to understand) Needless to say after the abuse, I did not continue the sale.Whats the big deal about sending rego papers if the car is legit.. hmmm could be a rebirth?

Not reliably though, but entirely possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
