Default My buddy got a smooking deal on a 2014 Stingray. $38K

But of mine bought a 2014 Stingray for $38,000 from the insurance company. Not wrecked at all, 2200 miles on it.


But here is the kicker. Previous owner blew his head off in it, and put a hole in the removable roof, brain matter everywhere, and his body sat in the car, and the garage for 2 weeks.

Car should be done tomorrow after getting the interior cleaned out. Cost $1200

He couldn't pass it up. He said if you stood 10 feet away from it, the smell would knock you out. He took it to a place that cleans up murder scenes and stuff in cars. He will have to buy a new cluster, and nav because there is body fluids behind the lens..lol

I sure hope this forum doesn't end up with posts like this on a regular basis. What a sick waste of time.

We're all snobs because we think it's disgusting?

OK, whatever. Name calling always helps a discussion go better.

Without pics this ain't real. Let's see the brain matter you speak of.

Or was the friend not man enough to prove his claims.

I call BS.

Man, the guy must have been really upset that he didn't wait for the 2015 model

(By the way....technically your buddy got a killer deal not a smoking one)

Does it seem like there has been a noticeable increase in inflammatory/troll posts lately?
