No worries man. I'd keep them far away. Last time it didn't end so well.

BTW, is that a ding on the passenger front door? Hard to tell from the pictures.

Yes it is, evidently the owner traded it in on BMW and they offered him $10k trade in simply because they sell luxury car's at this dealership. He took the offer and so they put it up for $15k for a quick flip.

Seriously, the Focus ST was the only car that I was enamored when I visited Montreal Auto Show, last Sunday. The Mk VII R/GTI looked so ordinary stuff compared to it.

I like a narrow body, a manual transmission and some jazz. *I applaud*.

You could ask the dealership if they are willing to use a paint-less dent removal company to pull that out for you. You never know.

Yeah the GTI is just basic and not exciting. The ST gives you that feeling of being connected to the car. Especially with the Recaro's LOL

Didn't even see where he said he paid $15k. You have zero credibility on the site so might as well keep quiet and not tell anymore lies

Oh! Then you should ask the Genesis that was on my left who was running him, I've ran the CTS-V before I didn't need to run him again to know he was faster. I just honked them off, buuuuut doesn't matter anymore.

Nice. I was looking at a FoST when I got my wagon. It was a Dec-31 deal and I would have done it except it was that Tangerine Scream color or whatever. I couldn't stand to see that in the driveway every day so as much of a hoot as that car was to drive, I passed.

Good luck with keeping this one unmangled.

Thanks! Yeah I didn't want a very bright color, either black or silver. The blue looks nice too but eh.

Funny thing is I actually went down today and put down my down payment on the car.
The pics I originally posted are my pictures I took in their shop after testing driving the car. The sales guys was polite enough to position the car where they take their pictures so I could get some decent shots in the light.
But I'll be happy to post pictures of it at home on Saturday if that tickles your fancy

You said the same shit last time with the mustang...then it was excuses for like a month.

But whatever floats your boat. If you bought it, good for you, hope who ever co-signed your deal doesn't get fucked.

The reality is, you have lost all credibility on the interwebz....doesnt matter what you say. Even if you did get the car, the next thing you post will be in question. And so on and so forth.

Uh what Mustang? Mustang's I've had since I've been on here was an 07 GT and a 12 GT. Other than that I never considered buying another Mustang and haven't since I got rid of the 12 GT....
Nobody co-signed either
The reality is I don't care lol it's the internet, there's more important things to worry about in life than what people think of you on the internet

OH and those who honestly care about what people on the internet think about you need to get a life, get out and do something rather than sit behind the keyboard, trash talk and cry about what others say, because at the end of the day 9/10 of those who talk trash on the internet don't have the balls to say it to the other persons face.

I'm going to keep talking about it because I can do as I want, I'm an adult but thank you for you concern!

You let me know the day you're in Texas, I'll be more than happy to let you speak your mind but until then you should find a real hobby, talking shit online isn't exactly productive.

Ok Cartman...you do what you want...like a special little snowflake. You can tell us all about how you really don't care, but since you're an adult you can talk about it anyway.

You let me know the day you're in Texas, I'll be more than happy to let you speak your mind but until then you should find a real hobby, talking shit online isn't exactly productive.
Says the big man behind his keyboard knowing I'm no where near him. Its OK snowflake, your cornhole is safe...

As I said let me know the day you're in Texas. Unlike you I don't believe in trash talking online, you want to trash talk you can come to the Lone Star State, otherwise just jump in line with the rest of the keyboard warriors who have such a large ego online.

Been there, lived there, worked there. Texas doesn't make you anything special. But by all means continue to act tough (and keep trash talking like the rest of us). You've got us all worried here.

You must have a hard time comprehending sentences. I simply told you if you want to trash talk do it face to face, don't coward behind the keyboard, and I'm not acting tough I'm telling you straight up if you want to run your mouth you can come say it to my face like a man. That's not trash talk. You should probably do some research on what trash talk really is since you can't seem to figure that out.
