Replying to: fintail (Oct 07, 2009 11:43 am) I tried to sell a SC range Rover sport to a kid like that from Turkey.   Truly insane money but a decent enough kid. Was trying to trade in a beat 335i hard top vert that was probably the second or third sold in the state. He had managed to do a number on the paint in 8,000 miles though.

Replying to: british_rover (Oct 07, 2009 2:35 pm) Most of the satellite kids here are from Hong Kong and China.   When I worked at my old Honda dealer, there was a lot boy working at another dealer across the street for $8/hour, but he was driving a brand new black Land Rover Sport, right when they just came out. Crazy. Replies to this message: fintail (Oct 07, 2009 7:08 pm)

Replying to: boomchek (Oct 07, 2009 4:37 pm) My old roomate was from Taiwan. He said his father drove a big old MB, a very unusual car there. He didn't know what it was...so I gave him a book and had him point it out. He was sure it was a W126. Those have to be uncommon there...although many were sold in HK. He'd sometimes go with me out in the fintail...he got a kick out of something so old, and maybe it gave him a little feeling of home, too.   I remember he also said Ford Taurus and Nissan Altimas were considered to be high class cars there.

Replying to: british_rover (Oct 07, 2009 2:35 pm) Yeah, those might not be the best people to buy used cars from. As many would say, people who don't buy their own things don't take care of them.   I remember the guy I knew would see me using a squeegee to dry the old non-clearcoat paint on the fintail - so the first time his new car got wet, he did the same thing. Put a big scratch right down the hood. He took it back and begged the dealer to buff it out, which they did.

saw my first 'on the road' Ford GT. White with blue stripes. then in the parking lot at Lowes, a new Camaro, a new Challenger r/t, a Charger r/t, and a Mustang GT500. it's October in New England and I am in the home improvement store parking lot. felt weird.

Saw one of those new retractable roof Ferraris this morning...loafing along a suburban arterial at maybe 10 under the limit, older driver. What's the point? Replies to this message: steve_ (Oct 11, 2009 12:10 pm)

Web site not available?   I'm worried about the company already.

The website is not working and I think this is the wrong thread for it anyways.   If you guys want some exposure you should contact Edmunds and either get them to review and test drive your vehicle, or put in some paid ads   For $14k - $15k I'd rather buy:   A Kia Forte, Rio, or Soul and have a 10 year warranty A Hyundai Accent or Elantra A base Ford Focus or Nissan Versa A Dodge Caliber or even a Chevy Aveo A Smart car.   All of the above come from an established manufacturer, with some sort of a decent warranty, and most important, they look like normal vehicles with 4 wheels. Plus I'd feel much safer in the above than in a 3 wheel golf cart thingy. Even the smart car is priced less, offers decent fuel economy, and was engineered by Mercedes.   Maybe your product would do better if it's priced at the $7k-$8k mark.   PS: you spelled Seabring wrong. It should be Sebring.
