its all relative.... and your exactly right if it was a corolla or an accord no1 would say anything... and thats wrong


Im not saying she's a complete idiot, because she is.... but to throw words like Poser etc is about just as worse

I used to work at Volvo and MCL and both of those places took cars over night.
I'm not sure if they contact the owner or not though.
She should buy the car at cost and take it elsewhere for service.

how is that going to work?
There isn't that much markup. Say you spend 100k on the car and you pay about 17k in taxes. Nobody is paying you retail so you wouldn't break even.
You'd be losing money.

Hi all,

I apologize if I offended or hurt anyone with my post.
What may be funny to some may be hurtful to others.
I did not mean any offense by it.
My posting had nothing to do at all with this unfortunate
situation at all. Just a weak half-baked attempt at humor
and imagery.That's all. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada.
