Step right up folks! This here is an E-LEET driving machine. That's right, the high performance AMG Diesel. Just look at those beautiful wheels - all you need to make your car an AMG! Never you mind that salvage title, this one's like new! That's not rust on the front seat rails, that's a custom powder finish!

Impress your friends with the AMG yellow engine components. Yes-sireeeeee. This here is a mighty fine AMG diesel for sale....

75,000 miles on engine. BS.
AMG. BS.

Some poor sucker will probably fall for this.

Well, at 152.75 it would probably be a good buy. I tend to get peeved at misleading advertising. The car is the same color/interior as mine. At that price it would be a good parts car.

At the risk of repeating myself, Florida is home to every sleazeball running every kind of scam known to mankind. And the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area is the worst of it.

And all this time I thought that those yellow diesels were Caterpillars!

"Carfax had shown this once had a salvage title - please note, it is now a CLEAR, CLEAN Title."

Ok, someone explain to me how you can do this.

Where's the freaking fan shroud?????????

I wonder if it instantly overheats, or does it take a few minutes. Wonder what else got left on the floor of the garage, eer butcher shop where it was "repaired"

What is AMG on this car? Even the wheels are fake AMG's!!

This is ridiculus!!

Someone is out looking for a sucker. What really gets me is the over $9000 spent on the engine, and they don't even put in the proper engine back into the car. Then they paint it an ugly yellow color

R Leo · #12 07-10-2003, 08:42 AM

...and called BS on them. They claim it's just the wheels that are AMG. Um, yeah, right.

Read the ad and it's apparent that it is intentionally misleading.

I propose that, to totally waste their time, everybody barrage these pickleweeds with a gazillion questions about everything imaginable.

Apparently its not too late if you'd like your salvage title (no, I mean clean, laundered title) AMG Diesel. This would be the third time its been up for auction in a row. Check out the seller's feedback on a previous auction for this car.

Is that engine paint a Daimler-Chrysler color?

Im going to email them and ask how they swapped a CAT diesel engine into an AMG car because I was thinking to do the same thing so I can get diesel torque and amg good looks.

Grdenko · #15 07-26-2003, 03:14 PM

i saw this car a couple weeks ago, and im glad im not the only one who finds this absolutely outrageous, i wish there was a way to keep people from bidding on this and other frauds.
