Why are they selling it as a whole? I'd imagine they could make so much more money from parting it out. Looks like someone already bought the back bumper.

Reported the listing to prevent some tard from actually buying it. Maybe next time they'll make sure to do some fact checking before posting cars with the wrong info.

If that front end wasn't pushed over so far I'd be buying a new track car.

Obviously the guy's dead broke and either well misinformed or just ignorant.

Nah it's easier for him to do what he's doing. This car was likely bought at an insurance auction, probably for 3-4k because no one needs these for parts yet and it's pretty much destroyed for anything else, selling it for 6k = quick easy profit. They could be selling direct for an insurance agency.

Either way it's a bit too destroyed to use for much but a few parts and as such isn't worth much.

You make alot of sense considering the seller states it has a porsche engine. Obviously doesnt know much about the car at all.

You realize that seller isn't actually 16 right? He has over a million dollars of cars on ebay right now including a damaged 2010 LP560-4 which he's asking $119,500 for....

Hope this isn't too off-topic but I found a guy parting out 3 twins on ebay. Worth a shot:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-SCION-F...500ee7&vxp=mtr

Contact info for him is:
M & M Service & Salvage Yard, Inc
229 M & M Road
Ruckersville, VA 22968
800-533-4099 Ask for Roger

@Longhorn248

Do the twins have a brake pressure sensor? If so I'll need to hit him up for one.
