"Basically brand new", "just put a 7500$ engine in it"

Yes, brand-new with an even brand-newier motor in it. I'm sure it happens all the time, and there's no way the rest of it was equally as abused as that original motor.

Yea this is super shady. Unless he put $7500 into improving the current engine then this is CP all day long.

And at $25k for a 2013, there's no way he did that.

Yea, it's more likely that he blew the engine and other assorted bits, put just enough into it to get running and driving and will sell it to some poor chump.

"Just barely put a 7500$ engine in it,"

Odd way to put it. "Just barely" means what? It's either installed or it's not.

My guess is, installed it yesterday, hoping to sell it today, and change his phone number tomorrow, 'cuz somebody's getting a raw deal.

I agree. Who puts an engine in a 2013?!

It's annoying when people think they can sell their car for the same price as what they put into it, and triply annoying when they factor in stuff that needed to be fixed or replaced.

Just because you put $3000 into your $1500 car doesn't make it worth $4500. After all, I could get one in the same condition for less than half of that price.
