a car that can't do the throttle reset.
new rule?

shouldnt there be some kind of rule that if you are a new member with no posts that youre first post cant be trying to pedal your used car here? i see alot of that... especially at ridiculous prices. other forums prevent this by putting a cap on when you can post in the classifieds. just a thought.

another newbie big shot know it all...LOL

this was the last post in the magma red c32 post by Toda......

"How is calling him a CON trying to help him? I also work for biggest car dealership in the country and I might have just a little bit more experience with how much cars are worth. I'm not some shaddy salesman but I do all the research on all our cars before and after purchase.

It just seems like people are jocking his thread with negative feedback when all them have to do is IM him and tell them their personal feelings. But instead they have to fill this thread with egotistical mumbo jumbo. If you dont like the price that he is trying to sell it for than make him a lower offer, but dont go and say that his car color is bad and stuff like that. All of that crap is just personal preference and is not needed if your not interested in the car."

So this Blackthorn newbie creates another SN to back himself up....however , this Toda guy is also works at the biggest car dealership in the country.....*cough* hhaahahahah. Mods, plz consider the request of the first post of this thread. thanks =)

if you check the ip addresses, you'll notice that it's not me on both names, we are infact different people

I have no problem arguing back for myself

we both work at the same dealership though, and I do know who he is

if people would have pmed me and told me their sugestions that would have been awesome

not even in civilized conversation to people converse with each other and "flame" so why is it ok on the net?

the purpose of forums is to HELP each other and answer questions

just becuase you know something and other people don't, makes you no better then them, so why can't you offer help in the form of a private message instead of trying to be an "e thug."

so I retorted and now my forsale thread is closed, because it turned into a pissing match which never had to happen

I did in fact lower the price after the helpful suggestion of some of the more mature members here, and I do apprecaite that

just my .02 if you don't like it get your change

peace

Nick

hey thorn, are you joking...stop posting period. youre the one who got defensive and hostile. dont try to reverse your cheap cry, with an artifical attempt at making yourself seem like the bigger man...cause youre not.

why do we have to pm you? this is a forum...you know, where people input there thoughts, ideas, and questions. thats what a forum is for: posting and responding.

you and your boyfriend can get lost or find another forum to try and rip its members off. cause we know whats up.
