Am I the only one wondering how the car can be for sale if it's supposed to be given away in a raffle???

its not a raffle. its a sale disguised as a raffle. sell 100 tickets at $150 and the seller has the $15,000 he was looking to sell for.

or sell 100 tickets and walk away and suddenly the seller has his car AND the money

or sell the 100 tickets, announce that "john doe has won" who is not really a person, then keep the money and sell the car to someone else and have twice the money

scamming one guy for 15k is harder than scamming 100 FB people for $150 each

clearly, I wouldnt trust this.

So are you saying that you might waffle on the decision to enter the raffle?

[HipMF]

These jokes are waffle. I pancake it anymore.

He’s right, we butter not stroop to this level

[GunMetalGrey]

I'd think you're batter off looking at other cars

I recall @suspenceful doing a thing like the sketchy raffles, I don't recall the format. Maybe we can griddle him about it

Most of them seem to be a "buy a $150 T shirt" deal or something like that to avoid selling a "ticket"

This is neat.  Mega miles, but seems pristine.  Perfect color combo too.

If genuine that rear bumper valance and side skirts are worth a bit more then what he is asking for the whole car.

My thoughts exactly. I’m not well-versed In identifying rear stuff, are those wheels possibly genuine as well?

This seemed to be built very well and documented thoroughly (there is a long youtube tutorial of the swap on this car) im surprised that the ad is so plain. Perhaps the car doesnt mean much to him  or he knows there are issues and isnt elaborating. That car would have to be a bit of a rocketship but no thanks to doing any repairs to it
