Correct It's already been filled out by Andy, ready to go to the title office and get transferred. Except Buyer 1 never takes it to the title office. Maybe he pretends to be Andy, maybe he pretends like Andy is his father-in-law asking him to sell the car for him (to explain why everything's already filled out), whatever the explanation, Buyer #2 either doesn't know or doesn't care that he's not buying from the person listed on the title. There's a lot of problems with this way of doing business. First and most clearly, if you have an issue, seller #2 (the title floater) is probably gone like a fart in the wind. They change their number and disappear with your money, and seller #1 is the only info you have, and he doesn't give a fuck about your issue. Also there's the issue of taxes, since if the state contacts seller #1 about how much he accepted for the car, then asks you how much you paid, the number will most likely be different. Not to mention that seller #1 can't use his license plates until the title has been switched. This is, for me, the #1 reason to do business at a title office. Many states are starting to adopt laws to prevent floating titles, essentially saying that if you sell a car or buy a car you must do everything possible to ensure the title is switched IMMEDIATELY. A colleague of mine at Chrysler corporate in Michigan (where they now have such a law) got screwed when he sold an old truck. The new owner never moved the title over, got into an accident and left the scene then ditched the truck. The truck had not been reported stolen, had not been insured since the sale, had not been registered, and all of this came back to my colleague. It didn't matter that he wasn't the driver, all signs pointed to him being the culpable party because he hadn't covered his ass.

Seller 1 sells to buyer 1 buyer 1 becomes seller 2 seller 2 sells to buyer 2 and yeah, the state is definitely cracking down.

1700 lbs with 173 hp? Dat lb/hp ratio. Looking at the website I'm somewhat amazed that there's a driveshaft connected to a belt drive. I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to this kinda stuff, is that a common thing? Seems needlessly complicated but as I said, I'm ign'ant.

And probably floated the title, too.

Unintentional jokes are always the funniest. I'm really not that clever, sadly.

S5 is nice but not enough of an upgrade over the S4 that I wouldn't just get a super cheap S4. G3 is a very good phone. If you do a lot of multimedia, IMO HTC is the best option because of forward-facing speakers. Also has dual-lens camera.

If you wanna be faster than a GT3... http://www.maseratine.com/used/Maserati/2005-Maserati-MC-12-3d06f4a60a0a00bf27daa24643f09f6f.htm They usually have quite a bit more ridiculous inventory, but earlier this year a single buyer bought an Enzo, an F40, an F50, and a couple other rare cars they had. I suspect the 360 Challenge was one of them.

Most common question I hear in February: "Do you have any good trucks for $2500?"

For me it's the incredible manual gearbox. Absolute pleasure to drive. Assume you're looking for track machine for 360 Challenge or 430 Scuderia? I ask because my buddy works for Ferrari of New England and told me the 360 Challenge is an absolute bitch to drive anywhere but the track.

Generally speaking when someone is looking in this price range, I recommend an old Saturn. They seem to be as much car as you can get for that kind of money IMO.

Scion tC is probably the safest in terms of reliability, and of those 3 is also the least likely to have been hooned like mad. It's been hooned for sure, just not as much as an Eclipse or Cobalt SS. Though I do like the Cobalt SS.

You'll probably laugh but I had a late 90s Celica that was very reliable and inexpensive. Probably wouldn't be that easy to find a low mile ones, and I'm pretty sure the 2000+ generation ones had their share of problems, but it seems like she wants something small and "sporty" and you want something that won't break the bank while making her happy. That was the compromise my dad and I came up with.

I think in the other thread someone mentioned Pontiac Vibe GT. I'd say that or a Matrix (same car) would be a fantastic option.

OP can do whatever the hell he wants but I would never risk my nonexistent offspring with a rebuilt salvage title on such a new car. Older cars are one thing since it doesn't take much to damage more than the value of the car, but on something that new it's too risky IMO.

You deaf people have it SOOOOOOO easy. /sarcasm Glad to hear you got out of it.

What they paid for it is irrelevant. If they paid $550 for it would you care? If they paid $1 for it would you care? Its all about what the marketplace other than there says its worth.

I want to hate it but it's damn nice looking

1808 is legit, my buddy used to be a chef there and then at Veritas. He lurks here occasionally I think. Either way he's doing a pop-up dinner on Saturday that I'm fucking pumped for, Bangladeshi & Mexican cuisine. Its BYOB so I'm bringing a case of Modelo, some Kingfisher big bottles and a bottle of El Tesoro Reposado and whatever unsuspecting fuckers are going will be in for a party whether they want to or not.

In 10 years she'll be calling it "the reason I don't have a college fund" Kidding, always liked LRs but Defender or nothing.

I was just being facetious. It's pretty much idiot proof.

This is true, but I will run down a handful of valet stereotypes: Porsche: They tip well because Porsches are common and they want you to know they're the rich Porsche owner not the guy who took out a 2nd mortgage to get his Boxster. Often accompanied by a woman who will "accidentally" flash you her snatch while getting out of the car because nothing says "Porsche" like a sticky passenger seat. Ferrari: They tip well because their car is a point of pride and they don't want you to fuck it up, in fact why don't you just have an extra $5 and leave it up front if you would? Rolls Royce: They just stare right through you like you're not even there. You're just a hindrance to whatever they want to do and would rather you silently accept their key and money and disappear forever. Bentley: The opposite of a Rolls driver, they want all the luxury without the association. Good, not great tippers, but very low maintenance as a client. Lambo: You're getting stiffed. What, the privilege of driving a matte green Lambo isn't reward enough? I'd like to speak to your manager. I want my car parked free, and I want it up front where I and everyone can see it. In fact, I'm just going to take my keys so you don't rifle through the interior, and I'll leave it in the middle of the lane so I know where to find it. McLaren: They're going to tell you 53 times in the 4 minutes you interact that it's a McLaren and it costs just as much as a Ferrari or Lamborghini. BMW: They either are normal as fuck people or think they have a Rolls. MB: See above. Lexus: People who still think $0.25 is "high roller" tipping. These descriptions are made entirely tongue in cheek and are based only partially in truth.

Don't feel overwhelmed, it's honestly easier than everyone makes it seem. It's just a time commitment and if you fuck up, there's a free no-lube assfucking from the IRS. As I said before, the first time I did my taxes solo I had brokerage statements from my parents' investments in my name, 1099, 3 jobs, and moved states. It was still straightforward with their program, and I had no issues and have yet to be ridden rawdog by the gub'mint.

Will ask the lady if she's interested.

If you have 1099-MISC income, they started charging to do that last year. Switched to Taxslayer.com and it was free, so I use them now. Never had a bad experience with either, and I used to have a fuckton of different brokerage statements to input with TurboTax.

When you have that kind of money, a Lambo is your winter beater because AWD.
