I saw that yeaterday. My first thoughts were what did the bullets end up destroying? Much like when a human gets shot. Yeah the entry whole doesn't look bad but the exits, and what they destroyed to get to the exit.

Biohazard? Im going to guess there is some blood in there. The bullets exit is usually much larger than where it entered and then again where did it stop after piercing the door or the driver? Center console?

Are you serious
75- 85 range ?
For 2007, no warranty, no exit holes shown, no interior shown...
I know it's a bad joke , but is the body included with that price

Unless, it's the ultimate "gangsa" automobile w/the real bullet holes, not the fake stick-ons some idiots adhere on their side panels
Then it's worth "something". And I'm stretching the word "Something"

Theres no way anyone is willing to shell out that kind of money for that car. HRmm........ why get a slightly used one one for 85k? I can just buy this EXCELLENT conditon one instead!!! . I'm surprised bids are where they are now. Maybe the "seller" will respond to this thread and clear some things up? BIOHAZARD?!

biohazard...

means red tie dye custom interior. Celebrity owner was 2008 winner of wet t-shirt contest.

Based on the precise entry points of the bullets, I assure you the driver was inside the car, yet never felt a thing. This guy got treated just like a Mexican DEA agent.

75-85 for a gently killed in vehicle? Um, I think I'd take the same 75-85 and buy one without the glorified past, perhaps even with a side window intact.

The only way I'd buy this car was if I was on the list for a kidney and the drivers' was included in the trunk. Does the seller reveal the deceadents blood type?

Gotta pay your gambling debts...

Wait Chicago...

This is a part of the turf war chaos i bet, Chicago is like Beirut right about now.

Decesease at a stop light in South Side Chicago early morning, according to witnesses a man walks up as asking for a cigarettes. As he he aquisenting a black large vehicle (possibly Van) pulls up, 3 - 5 armed men rush to the car. Gentleman in the car attempts to defend himself and fire is returned from the perps. Details a hazy though after shot he ended up being stabbed and put into the trunk. Passenger also shot execution style. Believed to be botched robbery or retaliation for arms deal.


Biohazard: Trunk require (hazmat?) cleaning

I work the the family and they want the car gone soon, $60k or no reserve dealer auction by June 15th.

I think this is a sad story and to joke about 2 people who lost their lives because of their car which is the same manufacturer as the one you own is horrible. Becareful out there.

I do not believe the situation had anything to do with robbery because between the two occupants there was close to 250 thousand dollars in jewelery / cash on their persons which was not disturbed. Witness described three heavily armed men, one of which toting an "AR15" which is a civilian machine gun. The common perp does not have access to such a thing. The men then ignored all the jewelery and precedes through his wallet for the drivers license - discarding everything else.

It also strikes me as odd that both the decease allegedly drew their weapons (as if expecting a confrontation) before the assailants exited their vehicle.


Of course the events have been described by two eye witnesses whos credibility is dubious at best. We may never know what really happened.





Thats all the details I have that are relevant to the car, I do not like talking about them for obvious reasons. However it seems to be the only question I am getting.
