I say we should buy this car guys. Collectively. Then we can take turns trailering it to shows that we attend, park it right beside OUR car, that way it makes OUR car look 10x better. This ad was a bit of a hoot, even my girlfriend (relatively inexperienced with looking at a car and seeing what's wrong) laughed her ass off at the line in the ad, "This vehicle does not run and drive. The initial indication from our lot personnel is that the ENGINE IS MISSING PARTS AND is non functional and needs replacing, however, this is purely speculation."

So what say you, shall we buy it as our own personal "ugly friend", as a future Lemons car, or would the money better be spent parting it out and scrapping the car to prevent further shame being brought upon it?

It's at $500 right now and it has an R154... I'd buy it for parts at that price. If it wasn't 2000 miles away.

We should start a donation drive, buy it, pour 5 gallons of gasoline on it, burn it and publish the video on YouTube...
