Lots of decals that can be removed easily. I don't like these mods, but who am I to judge one's taste.

Remove those stickers and it looks like a great MT in good condition that a chick was driving. I thought it was going to be all torn up or having spongebob rims

I was expecting a sequel to the taxi TL. Isn't all that bad. Like others said, just need to remove the decals.

Agreed. I was expecting something outrageous. These are just decals that can easily be removed.

It truly amazes me that people don't remove all that shit if they're trying to sell it.

It's like listing something for sale and not cleaning it.

Yah but it's a chick driver so she's granny shifting instead of double clutching like she should.

Also, lol @ 218,000 miles. Holy christ, did she commute to Brazil or something?

There has been far worse but for some reason this had me laughing hysterically. I think it was more the description and the ad itself. The price is another story.

It's another Vlad!

Nice reference, dude.


What UD said. Clean your stuff before you list it for sale, especially a car. I clean everything I put up for sale meticulously and put it through a rigorous functional test. I played guitar hero for 4 hours before selling the game and controllers just to make sure it worked.

Lol dude you have no idea. I sold a rock band controller too. During my functional test, I discovered the tilt (star power) didn't work. Opened the guitar, found the faulty part with my DMM, ordered from china, soldered to repair. Tested. Sold.

I HATE dishonesty, especially when buying/selling.

Oh I absolutely agree. I think beating around the bush about things is one of the worst qualities in humans. Just get to the point and be straight with me. That's all I want.

That looks pretty good for a TL over 200k miles but for almost $9k??? I wouldn't pay for it. May be $7k i would. I have a friend who bought a TL for $11k MT for just under 120k miles.

I thought it would be plastered with stickers so you could not even see the color of the car. I counted maybe 4 or 5 stickers? Did I miss something? Doesn't look bad to me. It's in way better condition than my poor beat up dear.
