lol i linked to to my photobucket but most of you have already seen the pictures.

5k is kinda high of a price on here thats why i posted craigslist.

I thought about parting it out but i just cant stand shipping stuff out.

i need to sell this car to pay off girl friends loans. ( i posted it on craigslist saying i wanted to sell it for a project car money because i didn't want to sound like one of those sob stories, but you guys are family)


i wanted to also say what would be a reasonable price for this to go on here for.
im not trying to sell it for to much of a loss i bought this car for 2k even and since then put butt loads into it.

post up some estimates what i should ask for the car since 5k seems like to much to ask for.

So, you're selling it to pay off your girlfriends' loans? May I ask, WHY? I mean, I wouldn't even do that for my wife - everyone is accountable for their own debts, IMO.

Just FYI you can get one around here in good condition for about $1000... with low miles and all options. Sometimes even working AC.

For instance, this is overpriced:

http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/ctd/1491745439.html

It even has "leader" seats, so you'll always be 1st!

I almost got one like this for $400 with a blown trans, everything else worked on it (it even moved, just some gears didn't work) and the car had even recently been painted.

IMO 5K is much too high, esp. since it still needs work, but best of luck.

To be perfectly honest, I'd have to disagree with Jed. This car is nice. I actually got my Tiburon this past summer for close to 5k and it wasn't boosted. I didn't pay for it so I didn't care. Anyway, if you aim for a student then you might be able to get that much out of them, but I wouldn't hold too firm on that.

You misspelled accessories
Your pictures raise a "SMASHED PASSENGER SIDE" flag and a "CRAPPY INTERIOR" flag, just b/c of what you don't show.
I'd say lose the double-spaced text
Take a 3/4 shot showing each set of sides of the car (driver/front, passenger/rear) like these


Also take a single decent shot of the engine bay, and one of the interior.

"thanks for paying my debt sucker, cya LOL" has happened to a LOT of people.

just sayin'

I would suggest to just install the pump yourself. it's really easy. hmm... DIY is here somewhere

Oh here it is: http://www.rdtiburon.com/index.php?showtopic=4803&hl

I see people keep saying things about the loan, but do what you have to do, man.

i know how to install the pump its finding the time, im doing what i can to button this thing up today.
but there are tiny little things here and there that just keep taking more time away, for example.
running the map sensor hose unmounting remounting the aem fic, its a pain trust me.

might get to the pump today.
dp wont get done today.

if it was summer i would take the thing up to the track and put a for sale sign on it.

I love the car man! I already own a 1999 tiburon, but the body is to rusty to fix for my skill level. I will see what I can do in terms of getting a loan. Shot me a pm with a final price and lots of pictures. I live in Morrow county so maybe we could meet in columbus?
