View Full Version : Look at what I found!
Spinning Sushi 02-02-2007, 10:55 PM Wow, I found this on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mazda-RX-8-2004-MAZDA-RX8-Gray_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ84160QQihZ014QQite mZ330081985711QQrdZ1
The guy states that his stock automatic RX-8 is "Loaded with 285 horse power and strength."
Smokin_LaLa 02-03-2007, 05:33 AM HA HA it only has 285 horses when you use the when you engage the sport shifter in the auto
chickenwafer 02-03-2007, 05:59 PM that's funny. Someone asked him if he would take 10k, and he said, "no, this is an RX8 and has features other rx8s don't have..."
I just asked him why his car hs 285-bhp and what other features his 8 has that mine doesn't.
Just saw at the top of the discription "this one has the suicide doors". Like others don't! HAHAHA
WhiteDealershipRice 02-03-2007, 06:16 PM The guy says "Do not use paypal to send the deposit" and "Loan checks have to clear before I deliver tha car" Either the guy has no clue on how to sell as a private party, or there is something fishy with this sale...
chickenwafer 02-03-2007, 06:33 PM I honestly think there is something fishy with the sale. The main picture looks like an avaitar I could swear I've seen on this forum.

NoTears316 02-03-2007, 06:36 PM Sweet, it's a 4 wheel drive also!
N rider89 02-03-2007, 06:45 PM i asked him about the 4wd and the 285hp!
WhiteDealershipRice 02-03-2007, 06:49 PM ^^
Well, some people do translate "Shinka" as "evolution" as opposed to "evolved" or "transformed"
So the guy might be trying to sell a RX-8 Evo
cas2themoe 02-03-2007, 08:11 PM Isnt it funny how "Bidder1" has only had bids on cars? That ad is a fraud if I ever saw one.
N rider89 02-03-2007, 10:12 PM look what he sent me after i asked about the hp and the 4wd
"It is 4 wheel drive. It rides with total balance and control. Have you test drove one? I got my cars mixed up and listed the RX8 with 285HP, but it is estimated around 232 to 250HP. Have a good day and move one because I don't want to see to a rude person"
:lol:
chickenwafer 02-04-2007, 02:24 AM He just modified his listing, adding a comment, "I got this car mixed up with my other listing, I estimate horsepower around 232-250"
Oh, his reply to me went like this, "I feel the rudeness in society today, I indeed got this car mixed up with another listing, I estimate the RX8 has between 232-250-bhp. Yes indeed."
I don't think english is his first langauge. But the car is listed in GA. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm indeed I thinky.
Mazdaspeed RX8 ver2 02-04-2007, 02:28 AM i thought you guys new, the rare OZ Rally edition RX8. Co-produced with Rally Art and STI.
Phantom Menace 02-04-2007, 02:39 AM "horsepower & strength?" Bwahahaa. :rollingla
How much does it bench?
N rider89 02-04-2007, 03:11 AM i kinda want to report him to ebay some how just for being a dick
BigOLundh 02-04-2007, 03:55 AM Oh, his reply to me went like this, "I feel the rudeness in society today, I indeed got this car mixed up with another listing, I estimate the RX8 has between 232-250-bhp. Yes indeed."LOL - Welcome to the RX8Club.com Fraud Patrol F*CKER!!!
:rock: :rock: :rock:
NoTears316 02-04-2007, 07:56 AM This is the message he left me...
"There is nothing wrong with my listing. Do not contact me again, or I will consider it a threat. Learn to be nice to people and move on with your life."
I reported him.
j67345 02-04-2007, 08:46 AM These are the responses I've gotten from him the last couple days....he gets very upset when you call him on his lies. It's funny though because he must be inundated with messages from rx8club!!
"No, it is the touring RX-8 edition. I did not over state anything. I'm actually being more critical because it is my vehicle. I bought it off the Speed Way in Japan. The cloth interior in my opinion and many other people's opinion is better than the leather. It is very stylish and compliments the car itself. If you don't like my listing, you can look at another vehicle. I didn't ask for your opinion. If you don't like the car, shut up about it and move on. Why would you just send a nasty email to someone you don't know. I hope you never come up my operating table in the hospital. I could be the doctor to save one of your family member's life. You never know who you are talking too, so mind your manners. Have a nice life and good luck with that attitude."
"You are the reason I am no longer selling to the damn public again. Go buy it for more at the dealership. If you already own an RX8, why are you searching to buy another one? Why are you interested in mine listed."
klegg 02-04-2007, 08:55 AM I just asked him if he would take a certified or cashers check, and if I could drive over to look the car over before I bid. I was very nice about it.
klegg 02-04-2007, 09:04 AM Notice he has two other auctions going on...one for a pimp leather jacket, and for some pier 1 chairs. Funny, not what one expects from a doctor.
to talk like our friend "this is rudness listing that smelly bad, like a georgia fish plant at height of summer"
klegg 02-04-2007, 09:06 AM Also note that the photos were taken at an apartment complex...unless he lives in a realy big ugly house with parking spaces painted in the driveway, which is so pathetic I wnat to go slap him on general principle.

Notice how his english gets much better when he is angry.
j67345 02-04-2007, 09:09 AM His othersales were 40 Disposable diapers, Pink Maternity Pants, MAUI JIM Sunglasses, and a Double Greeting Card Display Rack. Quite the array of things for sale!
He did overstate the HP on the greeting card rack. He said it came with 75hp....I think they only have ~20hp :hahano:

He will take paypal for his other listings.

So he is pregnant, light sensative, ncontinent and has a gretting card fetish?
Smokin_LaLa 02-04-2007, 09:54 AM Maybe he is the same person who is trapped in Nigeria and needs you to help move his millions where he gives you a 30% cut and all he needs is your bank acc# and other personal info

You could be on to something there. He may actually be in Georgia, Russia....not Georgia, USA! He is selling his car to help raise funds to get the millions of dollars his long, lost relative (a king, of course) left him!
Smokin_LaLa 02-04-2007, 10:04 AM I think we should ALL spam him and see how pissed off he can get and keeps asking him dumb questions like "Hey just wanta know is that a V6 or V8?"
klegg 02-04-2007, 10:11 AM I think we should ALL spam him and see how pissed off he can get and keeps asking him dumb questions like "Hey just wanta know is that a V6 or V8?"
I just sent it.

j67345 02-04-2007, 10:22 AM me three!
Smokin_LaLa 02-04-2007, 11:33 AM OH no its gonna end in 40 mins get your bids in quick
RedSheDevil 02-04-2007, 11:42 AM omg, you guys are too funny!
i feel bad for the guy if this is a real ad ... if he's a scammer, then go get him! :D:
j67345 02-04-2007, 11:42 AM What a BARGAIN! A stock AT 8 straight outta Japan for only $8,400!!
j67345 02-04-2007, 11:43 AM This car would be a fun one to drive though...

j67345 02-04-2007, 12:00 PM He stopped responding to all my questions. I don't know why? I am really interested in finding out what features this one has that 'other rx8s don't have'
klegg 02-04-2007, 12:30 PM Look at the entire auction. I got the infomation mixed up, but I corrected it. Sorry about that. This car has estimately 232HP to 250HP. For some reason, Ebay just automatically listed the 4 wheel drive. It is a Rear Wheel Drive with 50/50 balance. I have not messed with the rotary engine, but I did update the spark plugs to better suit the vehicle. I would recommend checking it out before purchasing it. I purchased it for $34,000 in Duluth, Rick Case Mazda. It has a 100,000 mile warranty. I would take a certified or cashiers check and make certain it clears. I'm expecting to get around $15,000 for it. It really is a great sports car. I hope you aren't a Mustang driver because this car rides differently. It is a fast car, but not a fast take off car. Many people are surprised when they drive it. It handles better than any sports car I have driven. I live in Oakwood, Ga., so let me know when you are available to meet.
In respons to my question about if it had a V6 or a V8
Neither, it has a rotary engine.
So , not purchased in japan at all....hmmmm....
Smokin_LaLa 02-04-2007, 12:33 PM my question was: is it a V6 or V8? Do you have to crank it to start it?
his answer: This is a rotary engine like in a plane. I only wished it flew.lol.
HHHMMMMMmm like in a plane eh? HMMMmmmmmm

yea but that response actually sounds like its from an 8 driver ...
:dunno:
klegg 02-04-2007, 01:28 PM yea but that response actually sounds like its from an 8 driver ...
:dunno:
Yes, except his english skills got a whole lot better during this whole thing, and he originaly said he bought it in japan. Not to mention the 250-280 HP estimate, the claim he was a doctor......
But you know, this sensativity is sexy...let me see that calf.... :wink2: :yumyum:
Smokin_LaLa 02-04-2007, 01:37 PM Just asked him if he has a sexy back LOL
j67345 02-04-2007, 02:15 PM HA! We missed out! This thing is going to sell for at least $18,000! He had 5 (count 'em.....FIVE) people fighting over it! That must be why the bidding ended at $8,400....maybe he meant that it would sell for $8k.....not $18k. I'm done with him, but here is his last response to me :o)
I'll remember that the next time I'm on the speedway racing mine. I can beat anything with my upgrades. Women race, build and think better and more advance than men when they actually realize that cars aren't just for men's knowledge. Send me another email, and I'll consider it a threat. Have fun making rude comments. I corrected my listing because I mixed up my cars that I had listed. This RX8 I'm listing has estimately 250HP. And I will laugh if you ask me if it has a V6 or V8. For the little man like yourself who can't understand the complex thinking that is required for maintaining a car, this car has 50/50 balance with estimately 250HP. It offers a smooth Rear Wheel Drive. The automatic comes with a manual option to control the gears. For boomers, it offers the great sound system by bose. This car is a touring package which offers a sunroof with visor and a spooler for fun affects. Check out the RX8 website that was created by the professionals, not by you. Your not God to the car knowledge and facts. Oh, I have five people today alone fighting to offer a better price. Don't let the Ebay listing upset you, it will be sold for around 18,000 by the end of today. Sorry you missed out oh big strong man you.
RedSheDevil 02-04-2007, 02:25 PM seems like reserve was not met ... but dont miss out on your chance to bid on this:

RedSheDevil 02-04-2007, 02:27 PM Yes, except his english skills got a whole lot better during this whole thing, and he originaly said he bought it in japan. Not to mention the 250-280 HP estimate, the claim he was a doctor......
