This fun game involves your nearest Craigslist. Go to Autos for sale-owner,
put in 999,999 as the top price, $500 as the base,

exclude typos and cars not capable of title or moving.

Or honorable mentions of outstanding failure leading to scrap value.

Top Two Results:

it's an unexpected tie at $65,000.

(Best Picture available)

"1991 Mustang Has $100,000 in motor from top to bottom.

Made for street or track.

Has maybe 35 miles on motor."

It does feature over $35,000 of wasted funds by seller, which is about equal to a brand new Mustang GT convertible. That's gotta count for something.

(ed-If you actually have $65K, drop it on that !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! e. )

Or the friggin' !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! .

Tough call.

That 65K insurance settlement is going to that cheating ex of yours if you don't do something with it.

Daily Driver.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Disqualified : no car to buy, sell, view, or poke fun at. Rough neighborhood.

Someone out there is allegedly living in fear of prosecution for a hot Fiero..

Do not approach.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Meanwhile, over at $500 Lemons zone: A not-unexpected result..

Only one vehicle capable of a test drive. Unless you have a piston straightener.

Honorable mention: " 98 Dodge Neon for sale. Water damaged the engine a few weeks ago, I think the pistons are bent but I'm not sure."

Disqualified : has to be towed.

Awesome diagnostic.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

The Winner out of a remaining field of one:

1988 LeBaron Convertible. $500.

"runs good, good on gas, 2.0"

Only suffers from being a 1988 LeBaron Convertible.

Batmobile, LeBaron. Or Mustang.

I'll be getting the turbines to speed.

Local variant of craigslist is marktplaats.nl or translated 'marketplace.nl'.

http://www.marktplaats.nl/a/auto-s/lexus…

This is the most 'spensive secondhand car there. A Lexus LFA for $600000 dollars. The cheapest car is hard to tell since there are too many jokers that say 'this is just a deposit'

I found this cool thing called a '2012 200 mph car'

http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/cto/4000746928…

It looks a bit like a dodge challenger but a dodge challenger is not a 2012 200 mph car. The ad says 'Hennessey' which is probably the name of the seller.

Take a look!

Ugh, that's almost as bad as 'make me an offer, no lowball'

Insist that "$1.00" as a listed price is a contract to sell. ;)

"Acura TL ***BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIAL***

Only $995,703. If a car dealer can't place a decimal point in the right place, I don't think I'll bother.

The first actual result is this, and I think they made up a name:

2007 FERRARI F430 DAYTONA - $159,900

Kinja'd!!!

At the bottom are a bunch of crappy posts about "buy here, pay here, we finance everyone". This was the first real car. And it's awesome.

1992 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible (once owned by John Voight!)

Kinja'd!!!
