Hmmm… That’s an interesting car, but I don’t think it’s for me. [emoji13]

Maybe if it had a V8 under the hood and different wheels? Me thinks that is going to be hard to sell.

Am I sticking my neck out here? I'm tipping the buyer will be an American.
Or maybe Malaysian https://www.istockphoto.com/photos/malaysia-flag

That ad reads odd to me. Petrol, colour- but it's in the USA.

It also looks like the drivers doors don't close quite right.

Don't forget type: saloon!
Not a normal way to describe a car in the USA.
But what do you expect from Craigs list? They can't even start the week on the normal calendar day. They start with Monday, pretty much every calendar in the US starts with Sunday.
Or the ad is a scam placed from somewhere not in the USA in the Phoenix listings.

I hope the owner of the car is not a participant here. Maybe it’s mine. We don’t know, do we.

Every member that has a car that is done to their tastes. Let’s see yours!

Just needs a little paint and interior. I always get a kick out of the people on the home buying shows who say that house isn't for them because of the color of the walls. Paint it and hang new drapes - now it's your house.
