“Previous owner sold the original bumper, but I bought it back , it’s just silver now.”

Well ok then.

And who would have thought the Audi was the clean title.

Hey I could have put the autotragic WRX.

I would take that over some of these cars. Here in Pennsylvania I’d occasionally use it too!

I guess the guy that originally bought painted it silver?

Works for me. I’d love to drive that to work as a winter beater.

The Audi being the clean title was a shock.

As for that WRX, I must admit that now that I’m in my 30s, some days I feel like shifting and some days I don’t. So for the right price I’d still take it. But yes, at least in that specific car, an automatic is kind of a bummer.

Supercharged C63... I expected rice when I searched stage 2, not something I want... https://columbia.craigslist.org/cto/d/2009-mercedes-benz-c63-amg/6323682143.html

Probably. It just seems odd that

A. The original owner sold a perfectly good bumper off of his car and then later sold the car to someone else.

B. The new bumper owner repainted it silver, but then also decided to sell it.

C. The guy who bought the car managed to find the guy who bought the bumper, bought it, and slapped it back on the original car without repainting it first. That car would look so much nicer if it matched.

“Bone Stock Interior” followed by a list of aftermarket gauges and an aftermarket stereo.

I’m sure they have the dyno results to back up that claim...

Honestly, could be some potential fun for how cheap it is. As long as you had time to sort out all of the inevitable issues.

It has potential, but I remain skeptical about the no rust claim. It’s a 20 year old car in Michigan, after all.
