Seems very affordable and very clean. Shame it’s a white auto , but a 4x4 with 75k miles for $1234 is practically a unicorn .

Update : ha, joke’s on me, I liked the small number but overlooked the big one. $10k is a major crackpipe.

I don’t know what kind of misleading BS is going on in the FB Market listing, but it appears they’re asking $10K.

Yep, mea culpa. No way I’d pay that.

Unfortunately the $1234 means they’re actually asking more than Facebook says the car is worth. Marketplace won’t let you put a price that they’ve decided is too high in the listing header.

There is a report button on FB.

Go to where it says Marketplace > Vehicles, there is a down arrow. Click on it, and you will see Hide Listing, Report Listing, Report Seller

Click on Report Listing, then scam, then inaccurate description

You’re kidding me. That’s absurd.

In fairness, if Kiltedpadre is right (Marketplace won’t allow the seller to set their own price if it’s “too high”) , it’s not really the seller’s fault. That’s an idiotic policy FB is enforcing.

There was one on San Diego CL a few days ago, v6 w/5 spe ed for $6900. It was green and had the hard top, I don’t recall any mention of the soft top. But that shouldn’t be too hard to get.

Just checked, it’s gone.

That is not a VehiCROSS. That is just an Amigo. And I bet it is rusty undern eath. Maybe worth $2200 since it has AM/FM STEREO.

That kind of money gets you into something way cooler and more capable.

Nope, Facebook has an algorithm that determines a price range of what  a car should sell for. If you want to sell anything outside that range you put in a fake number that meets their guidelines.

I keep hoping people will eventually come back to Craigslist instead , but doesn’t seem likely.

Me too, the search capabilities are much better. I have sold through both, and Facebook seems to get fewer scam buyers. I think that alone will keep Facebook marketplace going.

Wow I honestly didn;’t know that.

They should instead use those resources to improve their search/site functionality

I realize that Wrangler and now Bronco exist as 2-door SUVs that can be automotively decapitated...

But something a little more mainstream and unibody for a 2-door SUV/CUV should be brought to market now.

And I am not talking about slicking back the roof of a 5-door 3-ton monster and calling it a coupe. I am talking about a 2-door SUV/CUV

Maybe even somewhere between Amigo/Rodeo Sport and GMC Typhoon.

But Range Rover Evoque Coupe, convertible, and Murano Convertible probably irrevocably ruined it... and it is not like anyone is making much for actual CAR coupes with rear hatches anymore.

1234 is code for you won't like the price.

Our 91 pickup was $8,000 when it was bought at 30,000 miles in 1995. An amigo like this should be in the 4-5k range.

Apparently code for Facebook can’t handle the price, literally. What a crappy system.

Yes, which almost invariably strays on the high end.

I have seen it on Craigslist too but it only means, “ make me an offer.”
