I was just trolling Ebay for auctions of random cars and tripped over this one for a Porsche 912.

Is there ANY LINE in the description of this car that doesn't SCEAM RUN AWAY?

I didn't realize Boris Badenov was writing ad copy for eBay listings.

It's rather remarkable, innit?  Almost like that fake Ebay guitar ad that lampoons all the cliche claims of idiot gee-tar sellers.

If I was still living in Santa Monica I might take a look...but it's a jungle out there with all those barely bilingual furriners.  Probably all crooks like my grandparents.
