What is the worst choice you can find in a car on your local Craigslist. You can define worst in any way you would like. I would go with this, a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! with 113,824 miles priced at $45,000. I cant think of a quicker way to go broke.

Can we make it specific to our local craigslist? It seems like it would make it both easier and more entertaining to see which areas have the worst cars.

They claim meticulous maintenance, but 96k on the clock, and a V12, in a decade-old Bimmer... Makes me shudder to think how future bills will look.

Yeah, I thought it would have been assumed. Edited the main post.

Wheels like that make me question what "meticulous maintenance" looked like.

Would you like a "Well maintained" "Clean" and, mystifyingly, "Abstract" 1997 Aston-Martin DB7 Volante with 53,000 Kilometers for $29,500?

Take your pick:

http://greenville.craigslist.org/cto/4457411965…

"But S55 AMG for under $30K? That's a great deal, Desu!"

Sure. If you can afford the maintenance. It's also fully loaded, which means countless electrical problems after the first rain storm. Oh, and did I mention the salvage title? Yeah, because there's that, too.

http://greenville.craigslist.org/cto/4467514642…

"WRX STI for under five grand? How is that a bad car!?"

Well, ignoring the fact that he modded the hell out of it and doesn't mention service records or maintenance receipts, there's the fact that "it i recently got rod knock from running it with barley any oil unfortunately it does not turn over". Not to mention it's another salvage. So really, you're paying $5k for a parts car with a wrecked chassis and a blown motor. Fingers crossed some of the modded parts aren't shot to shit too.

There's no such thing as an S550 AMG. Maybe an S550 with AMG appearance package.

Pretty much this: 2007 Range Rover Sport with around 80k miles. What is even worse, is that if you go around in a car like this in the city in its current safety, you will be robbed for sure.

These are the only photos of the ad

If you yell "EXCELLENT CONDITION" at me in your craigslist ad by typing it in all caps I automatically assume you're lying and that the wheels are held on with Elmer's glue and you replaced the engine oil with corn syrup.

Isn't the check engine light on in the last picture? And the tach shows the engine is on so its not like the key is in the acc position or something.....

And he owns an 11th gen Thunderbird. Just throw in a PT Cruiser and you have everything wrong with retro.

Question 1: Why the hell would I want my MR2 Turbo in RHD?

Question 2: Why the hell would i want my MR2 Turbo with an awful body kit?

Neither feature makes the car suddenly worth $20K

This, because you know it's a money pit like no other; but the thought of owning a V8 Porsche is just so damn tempting!

1976 Corvette T-Top $6000

1967 1800s Volvo $2200

1977 Porsche 924 $400

Because every one of them can hypnotize with their potential end result many many dollars later.

SRT-4 with 100k miles, potentially questionable workmanship, and a salvage title. If the "best photo" is one of the car nosed against the garage door, one can only guess how many times this has been crashed.

ONLY $6500!

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/pts/445013…

NSX-"R". No it's not a real R. $45k worth of NOPE.

Hard to find parts for? Check. Finicky to begin with? Check. Aftermarket turbo? Check. Extreme likelyhood of having been flogged nearly to death by multiple owners? Check. Where do I claim my prize http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/445091…

Six grand for that Corvette? I'd bet that you could get a running one that looked better for less money. Total CP.

By the way, is it some kind of unwritten rule that every "project 'Vette" on earth comes with a new, yet uninstalled interior kit?
