I thought i was buying a modified car and i ended up with someone elses problems. Theres probably a good reason why the modified car is being sold, and its not the reason the seller is telling you. Good luck

Don't get pissy. He's not insulting you.

It's always better to buy a stock car than a modified car. Would you really trust that I, a total stranger who just wants your money, am trustworthy enough to not be trying to unload my cluster[freak] of a car on you just to make a quick buck in the process?

Say I want to modify my car. Say I'm cheap. Say I get a "cousin" to do my radio install. He snips the dash harness. Say my cousin does all my wiring for me now. Then my friends help me with a few other things... all comparable work.

Would you want to buy that car? It might still *look* nice, or at least salvageable. But if you had the chance to get a stock car, wouldn't you rather start off with somethign that's not a rats nest of wires and horror?

STOCK FTMFW.

think of it as this. when you buy a clean stock oem vehicle, you could think of it as a fresh virgin. but if it's already modified or in this case, busted down, then you might as well just go catch some aids. and you don't want that Tunerstop, do you?
