My guess is that when one really been far even as decided once to use even go want a GT-R, it is then that he has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like $55,000. It’s just common sense.

Not even a "too good to be true" deal, they were looking for $59k. $4,000 a small price to pay to avoid the shit hitting the fan.

(Male Dealer picks up line) Hello how can I help you?
(me) Do you guys do credit checks if I was to finance the new 2011 Honda Accord?
(Male Dealer) Yes we do, unless you would decide to pay cash. Also, are you looking for the 2 or 4 door model?
(me) I changed my mind. I want that badass black Skyline GTR. I'll be glad to purchase it for $55,100. That's in cash too.
......click.

Update:
Dealer to Honor the Price: Quote: |
UPDATE! After our post elicited a flurry of stories throughout the automotive universe thanks to our readers tipping off every forum in the known universe, Honda of San Marcos relented to the pressure and has agreed to honor the initial eBay sale. All is well that ends well... we hope. We've put in a call to Xou Vang for a comment and should hear back from him shortly.

Just finished reading through the whole thread!
Man, I'm glad he got the car in the end... but what a fucking hassle. Glad he stuck with it, and didn't buckle.
I sure hope he posts pics of him picking up the car, etc  | |

I just got off the phone with them. The same cute girl answered. I said I wanted to talk to someone in used sales. She asked what it was about. I said the 2010 honda fit with 2k miles on their website. She asked me to hold, then came back with the same story about all the salespeople being busy and can she have my name and number to call back. I said "well that's okay, I'm heading into a meeting for the next hour and will just try back when I get out." She said someone just got freed up, and transferred me to Dave.
Dave: (tens of phones ringing off the hook in the background) This is Dave, how can I help you?
Me: I am calling about the 2010 honda fit on your website. It says 'ask dealer for price', and I am wondering what the price is because I have been looking for a low mileage fit.
Dave: Gosh, that one has actually been sold. Can I interest you in a 2011?
Me: No, I really wanted to pick one up used, sorry. Do you mind me asking a question about the one you had?
Dave: No, go right ahead.
Me: Well I was wondering, when you sold it to the buyer, did you sell it for the price you quoted them, or did you try to **** them for another $4,000 on top of it because you are a bunch of thieving pricks?
click | so much win.
