2000VertGT

I've been buying, trading, and selling anything on wheels since I was 12 and I have made a lot of profit doing it, but as stated before, you have to get it for the right price and put as little into it as possible. In that case, I wouldn't touch that car for the price. Just in the recent past, I bought a 00 GT vert for $4,700 triple black in great condition other than some faded paint, had 125k miles. I drove it for a few months, tuned it up and traded it for a 02 F350 V10 that I sold for $7500. Then here recently i found a 95 Cobra in rough shape but ran great for $3500, talked him down to $2100 and didn't do a single thing to it before I traded it off for 2 jetski's I ended up selling for $8400. So it CAN be done, the key is to buy something other people would want to buy, not what you would buy.

^+1, getting it cheap is the key.

I sold a bike one time (a rice rocket that was practically given to me) and the buyer was a fellow I worked with. He asked me if I was ever going to buy another "sport bike" and I maybe, if the price is right.

He spent the next month coming to me with various bikes he described as "good" and "fair" deals--I finally told him that "Good and fair deals are a dime a dozen, I'm looking to screw somebody over." If you want to be a "flipper" that's the way you need to buy anything...
