I'm hoping it's just some clever guy who's posted the car just to be able to tell the wife that he is trying to sell it while knowing well that it never will.

BUT if anyone else's wife sees that ad,they will think that "their hunny's car" is worth that much too,and ask for it in the divorce.
Let them take it,..Dude can get the HOUSE..!

I had a woman try to sell me a GXL that had a rusted out floor pan, rusted out doors, and PD failure fire damage under the hood. Before the car was repaired it was "I will pay you to take it." After it was repaired it was $6,000. She told me that if it had a fresh paint job she'd be asking $10,000. I drove away laughing. Her dealership is now for sale. (Probably for $2,000,000)
