Possibly the best craigslist ad ever. (for an SHO no less)

Taurus SHO (Baller Status)

Someone in MD should buy this to put the motor in the back of their stiva. And give him extra money for a creative cl ad.

[FB71]

best part of the ad;

Now to the Q&A:

Q: You say the car "handles as well as any other 3400lb sedan"... ever heard of a BMW M5?
A: This car would rape a BMW M5, make it conceive it's illegitimate bastard child (ever seen an Infinity Q45?) and then dump its mother's lifeless carcass in a gutter. Afterwards, it would smoke a cigarette and laugh about it later to all it's SHO friends.

Q: Consider a trade for my grandmothers four door maverick and a faux members only jacket?
A: Does the jacket come with your grandmother? Maybe we can make some sort of trade + cash + lube.

Q: Does the car have a stick or automatic? :-)
A: Actually I made a mistake in the original article - the car has a 21-speed dual detailer Shimanno gear-set grafted off a 22" Huffy mountain bike I had lying around. Take that Mercedes!

Amusing ad, and not a bad looking car for the money, either.

A buddy of mine use to have a SHO just like that. It was a blast to drive. They were quick.

Sho's can be fun to drive...oldest ones were the best.....my uncle supercharged his...its pretty fun to beat a teenager in his 5.0 with a grey "taurus".

[Kraig]

Looks like a deal to me....love the ad too!

[Hot_Wheels]

thats was funny!

[todd00]

i don't think long-winded ad's attempting to stress an ability to be a stand-up comic, do as well with the general public.

i wonder how many people just browsing will now email him just to annoy. i should write, proclaiming to be a king of franistan and ask if he will take my first child and mother in law in partial trade. balance to be paid off with an unrecognizable foreign currency resembling paper napkins.

however i did like his bit about stealing the money the wife was planning on using for a never ending list of items.

[Damkid]

the ad was flagged for removal

[batstiva]

^^ Just saw that too. Guess I'll never know. :roll:

[todd00]

funny it would be flagged, have you seen some of the posts in the rants and rave sections :roll: they never seem to get flagged there.

I own one that has a few mods, I fool a lot of cars with it mines a automatic.
The stickshifts were faster from the factorie.
