Default Blown V6 on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

This has been up for days already and I have to admit I'm surprised it hasn't gotten a bid. The 17k opener seems quite reasonable for what has been invested in it. I can't help but wonder if the fact that it has an SC on it is actually preventing people from bidding on it, but then again maybe everyone is waiting until the last minute

its probably just fine.. wouldnt be the first time I've seen something with a starting bid around half of its value or less. If you dig deep you'll find $1000 computers starting at $10. Low starting price = entices bidders and makes an auction more "attractive"

I've been watchin It almost since the auction started, I'd bid on It, But My Ship is being held up by a Condo in Sacramento CA. drat. I could live with the paint, Although If I owned the car, The paint would be a Tungsten Grey instead as I like a more subdued color normally, Although with no white stripe It would be ok.

It's got alot of miles on it and it was probably beat to hell. I would be careful about that one.

We all know why we put the mods on 'em. I wouldn't buy a used V6 already modded. You don't know how hard the owner has been on it.
