WoW,

Bad attitude, no respect, $9K - $38k beaters, No class, 2 Posts......

Sounds like somebody that we really do not want around. He has a line of credit that he bought the car with and it has him sweating bad karma --- Well deserved.

We do this for fun...Some have replicas, Some have CXS replicas, Some have original CSX Cobras.

WE ALL HAVE RESPECT FOR EACH OTHER.

sfe1234 You just poisoned one of the best resource pools that exists for propective buyers for CSX2568.

You probably nailed it. Car speculation instead of house speculation.If you do both it could be costly.
I find it interesting that nothing he has said comments on how much fun it is to drive or the classic barebones exhilliration it generates...it seems to be all about the money.....or lack there of.

Just another reason why a nice replica is so rewarding...Cobra fun without the investment required for an original CSX.

It seems like that there are quite a few people on this forum that could afford this Cobra and there are dozens of members that know people looking for an original Cobra.

I’m not sure that I would want to burn any bridges by insulting any members regarding their Cobras. Especially, if you’re in the car business and you’re trying to sell a Cobra.

Besides that, there are a quite a few Cobra manufacturers that build Cobras that drive as well or better than an original.

Look at his web site. Just a handful of nickle and dime cars. He and his buddies probably had to mortage their houses to buy that one Cobra.

Objectively speaking, the financial condition of this country (and the world) at this time essentially takes most of the qualified buyers and speculators (for a car of this type) out of the picture, unless of course the price is severely discounted. I've watched most of the televised auto auctions the last six/eight months and almost all the high-end cars are not getting close to what they pulled a year of two ago. It's just not a good time to sell off your investments.

Come on guys, leave the "Mouth from Miami" along and maybe he will go away.

Well, well, well... Gentlemen, I would like to show you what this individual sent to my private mailbox.

You know, its amazing how easy it is for some moron to go on one of these garbage websites and spew off a bunch of venom about someone elses property or reputation. I am the owner of CSX2568 and I have a major problem with your cute little line "it doesn't make sense but after looking at the sellers feedback you can understand why". WHO ARE YOU to comment on my feedback when you probably don't even know how it works? You are playing with peoples lives and livelihood for fun. We sell used vehicles sight unseen and are 718 out of 723 positive. Thats real. Not fixed, not doctored, real. And its real good. The rating system on ebay on accounts for the past 12 months which is ridiculous. I have sold items to buyers with an 80% rating that have been great and have dealt with 100% buyers and sellers which either didn't show or were scammers. Be careful when you write on these blogs. I did not even know they existed until I was notified by a real Cobra expert that knows the car and is appalled by some of the comments he read. If you have any issues with me, my company or the car, please contact ME and I will try to help you out in your concerns. SFE1234@aol.com

First of all, I am someone who doesn't automatically stereotype people when they don't agree with me. Secondly, I know exactly how it works, I've been a member of Ebay for MANY years and have always had a 100% feedback. Thirdly, I don't have to be "CAREFUL" about voicing my opinions, you obviously don't know how THIS works...THIS is a BLOG, that's what it is used for. And lastly, according to everything I have read thus far, including this "private" email to me, it just goes to prove my opinion, and EVERYONE else's here of you is correct.
Oh, and by the way...I keep attorneys on retainer in Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia and Florida, take your pick.


ZOERA- I agree completely...what's the fun in owning it, if you can't drive and enjoy it!

gthompson- I would bet there are quite a few members who could afford to purchase "his" Cobra, but obviously have chosen not too. I sold cars for 10 years, any salesperson worth his salt knows that you never under estimate the ability of a potential client to pay. He just "assumed" every one on this site can't. Who does he think he's "marketing" to anyway. WOW! As far as "not burning bridges", it's probably too late for that.

Dwight- You're absolutely right. As I've learned in my 40 years of femaledom, if you ignore a jerk, he'll usually take his "toys" and go home.

REMEMBER: "Ignorance is Curable, Stupid is Forever". Some people just refuse to learn.

Who would do something like that?

I think it's great to have someone around like this. Keeps the boards alive. Just like Eric Cartman from South Park, we all need a bad guy to rev up the conversations here from time to time.

BTW, being ignorant and all, can anyone confirm that this person actually owns 2568? It wouldn't be the first time someone has been less than honest. Of course, I'm not talking about Patrick trying to stir up the hornet's nest using my name.

Signed, Owner KMP539
