The way that the car is listed, i.e., not a kit car and double barrel Holley, just makes you wonder how well the seller actually knows the car.

There are a lot of owners that do very little work themselves on their cars. They purchase the car, drive it very little and then sell it. I have helped many owners replace a fuse or relay on the phone. The site where this car is advertised lets the owner describe the car himself, unlike Cobra Country where Curt adjusts the text and photos. I would not concern myself with the written words too much. If you have interest in the car go and see it and drive it. It is a Superformance so you know the quality of the basic car. It presents well in the photo so you know the owner was at minimum a "waxer" which is fine. And I'll bet under the hood it is as clean as the outside or just dusty and in need of a light detailing.

You boys are over analysing and complicating it.
It has a suitable amount of miles to suggest most things are sorted and work.
If one was in the market, going around to check it out is your answer.
Whether it's photoshopped or not, meh, it will make no difference when I pop around and check it out. If a yellow SPF is something that fits he bill... Then one could start here to get a bearing on what their money could buy.

The fact the owner is out of sink with he jargon, makes me feel I'd be better positioned to negotiate, once I start throwing some more jargon back 
Divorced or widowed wives often sell their partners cars. Might be an extra motivated seller... Who knows. Again If you're keen on an Spf and like yellow turn up and check it out. What have you got to lose?

Dimis,
I stand corrected. I am not saying that it might not be a good car, only that the buyer needs to be cautious as the seller may or may not know what might be wrong with the car. All builds have the potential, no matter the make or engine builder, to go bad due to poor maintenance or poor installation. Helped a couple of guys recently who bought cars that needed a lot more work than they thought the car would need.
I will focus on more productive suggestions in the future. Have a good day

Dear Sir....
I don't believe there is anything to correct... My apologies if my message came across in that manner. I've changed the order of my post to reflect this accordingly, I was posting on the phone and well being lazy.
I quoted you because I agree with both your statements.

Dimis,
No offense taken. I thoroughly enjoy your opinions and reading your posts. As the OP stated above, I think that it is the sign of a little cabin fever. There seems to have been an increase in negative comments in general, and I have always prided myself in providing positive comments and suggestions and felt that i had drifted a little in my last couple of comments. Back on track and let's have a good and safe driving season.
