A Little Fishy
#1
so i was hunting around kijiji looking at focus for sale when i came across this one,

http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-c...QAdIdZ197284764

i contacted the guy and he says the car is stock except a lowering kit.
doesnt look stock to me, different headlights. grille and the paint doesnt look factory. any body seen this focus before? special edition?? and the pictures look a little staged, fake ad??? hmmmmmm

Here's an interesting exchange between me and the seller ... it starts at the bottom, but basically I called him out on using a photo of someone else's car - and a modified one to boot ... here's his response in all its juvenile glory.

Hey bud you should just f*** off cause you think google makes you smart see what your un aware of is that I'm originally from England where the cosworth originated I also have a right hand drive 2009 fiesta in my garage waiting for proper weather I know what I'm talking about plus if your not interested leave it be period I buy and sell tonnes of things on kijiji and I live by one main rule if I'm interested and have money which I do lol then I talk to the seller I don't waste peoples time the car in the picture has been lowered however the headlights and grille are exactly the same on mine also my focus has the newer upgraded 2007 wheels as well so tell your doushbag friend that owns the "real" car if he wants to build a real sleeper he should loose the fart cannon and boost it that is of corse if he adds the forged aluminum aspect of the platform that it would then need to operate long term also I see he is bragging about a high 13 on the strip is he seriouse my 1993 golf ran high 8's with my vr6 twin turbo running no juice this guys mire if a joke than your trying to make me out to be lol put a f***ing zip on your s*** and stop copying and pasting

If your car is modified in the same way, then I'm interested ... that would be with the lowered F2 coil-over suspension, the ST170 Euro headlights, the Ghia front grill, and the Tru-bendz exhaust.

As I doubt your car has those mods then frankly I'm not interested in a car with 230k for anywhere near 2900.

If you have pics of your own car you should use those in the kijiji ad instead ... there are a lot of people in the Focus community who know the car in the pic you lifted (it's from Virginia USA) - and FYI it comes with an engine that was never available in Canada.

Now everyone go and report the ad to kijiji that it is fraud and he won't be playin that game of buy and sell any longer.
TEAM PITA Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
