WTF Ken!?

FUCK that.  I wanted to sell it to an enthusiast.  He probably doubled his money on the trade.

Good luck at $11k, even if the engine were original, it still wouldn't be worth $8k.  Go back to the Mustang forum.

Yes, Ken is the proud owner of a Trailblazer SS. Remember guys in life you can go many directions.. Ken did what he had to do, It's rough out there right now and it's going to get worse over the next year..  I am soooo pissed right now because I wanted that car BAD, To be clear, I am not mad at Ken but myself because we all had the opportunity to buy that car and I had the $$$$ but I wanted to wait till tax time of 09.. Oh well you snooze you lose...
If GM drops the Pontiac division like they say is going to happen, The TGP will jump in value... Or thats what I'm hearing right now anyways...

I'm pleased to say that the car has been sold to an enthusiast whom I know will take good care of the car, will restore it to the condition I wish I had time for, and barring any freak accidents, not smash it into a tree and destroy it.



That has to piss you off.

Dartmouth MA?! Hmmmmm....... Only 100 miles away.
Maybe I'll keep a close eye on this one. It may go cheap. There is NO reserve!

It has absolutely nothing to do with money, just so it's clear.  I understand that nothing is ever set in stone, but I was under the assumption it was sold to an enthusiast who was going to keep it.  But as long as someone else gets it so be it. 

I find it amusing he would trade it in on a Trailblazer.  To each his own.  I hope someone gets it who really will take care of it.  That car is in fine shape.

id feel bad 5 speed swapping that car tho... and thats all TGPs are good for IMO.  TGPs just really dont mean shit to people, even to some of the owners and here is proof, that car is mint and has work done to keep it up to date and it still aint worth shit.  dont worry an enthusiest WILL have that car.

I'd consider it if I wasn't 1700 miles (one way) away from it.. The next TGP I buy will be a LOW mile one if any still exist by then, lol

I don't know if you've seen it or not, but the same car is listed one ebay now with no reserve.

I'm watching, not bidding, just so everyone knows.  I wonder what it will go for?  I wonder, if it will go for less than I sold it for??  That would be a joke.  Sad, that car truly is beautiful, the interior is essentially new. 

Best of luck to you guys.  Maybe someday I will own it again :laugh:

I'm guessing it's at least going to fetch $5K or a bit more.

i guess i dont know what i was trying to get at... it just seemed like they were letting it go for cheap by saying no reserve.

I bet they pull it if it doesn't hit a certain mark.  They do have it listed for $11K on autotrader.  Who knows.  $5k would be a deal.

Post by: mfewtrail on February 27, 2009, 04:24:51 PM
It didn't quite make it to the $5K that I figured it would get. Not a bad price for that car. Hopefully the person who won it will take good care of it.

It's unfortunate.  That car is pretty nice, aren't too many like it.  I just hope some tool doesn't buy it and wrap it around a tree. 

There is m**f in the buyers name  :laugh:  you got something to hide matt?   ;)

I guess I did pretty well at that price.  I wonder what they gave him for trade?

Nope, I definitely didn't win it as I didn't bid.
