I made a mistake.

ben721364 · 10-23-2010, 07:14 AM

Yesterday I "joined" this forum. I did so because I am thinking that a 370Z might be the car that I want to try next and because I have an equally desirable car that someone here might like to trade for.

I found no "trade" sub-forum and decided to post an exploratory note in the "for sale" section. Wow! That was a mistake, as witnessed by the responses! I have participated in several forums and prior to this not found one with such a restrictive policy. I know. I know. Another mistake on my part was to assume the rules here were essentially the same. I guess that I will go elsewhere to gauge interest in trading a 370Z Touring coupe for a nicely accessorized red 2008 Mercedes Benz SLK retractable HT with 7-speed automatic transmission. In the interest of saving forum band width, I will supply pictures, etc. to anyone who might be interested.

Best wishes to y'all.

Take it elsewhere man, i saw what you posted on your other "thread" very rude to be doing that to someone that asked a simple question. Did you seriously not expect someone to ask for pics when you posted something in the "for sale" section?

What are you wearing?

MightyBobo · 10-23-2010, 12:44 PM

Guys. Yesterday I made the mistake of offering to trade my fully loaded Ferrari for a 370z. Once someone asked me for pictures I decided to remove my posting since I felt that was totally unreasonable. I mean seriously, it IS a Ferrari. If you wanted to see what one looks like you could have simply Googled it. Duh. If you really need to know what year, mileage, model, colors, condition it's in you can PM me. My friend in Nigeria will broker the deal.

I hope this guy wasn't serious. People on here are usually pretty open minded and don't tolerate negativity. From following the other thread, it seemed like a reasonable question to ask.

To be fair to ben, everybody does know what they look like because every single one looks the exact same. Plus maybe his girlfriend or mom wanted him to sell it for her and doesn't allow anybody to take pictures of it because it is such an exotic car.

frost · 10-23-2010, 12:58 PM

I would like to trade my girlfriend for one of your girlfriends.
You would like pics of her?
Obviously I made a mistake. You people are not reasonable.
