🤔

Hi, I just want advice on what to do. I sold my first car a while back. A 2007 toyota corolla LE with 250,000 miles on it. (Car and miles are important) This guys hit me up and bought it for $2000, all was well. He told me he was going to be using it for business. I didn't really care until we found my EXACT car (it had my steering wheel cover and paint damage on it) with 100,000 miles less. I looked at all the other cars he was selling on marketplace and 2 of them were my same gen corolla with low miles. I have all his information, from where he lives to his real name because he left it all in an inspection note. I wouldn't care if he wasn't a dealer (he had a dealer plate that he put on my car) So if anyone is looking for a 2007 toyota corolla LE that's 150,000 don't buy it in maryland.

This is my 1976 corrvette stingray, have done a lot of work to it, cut the hole in the hood, added a big grumpy cam, high-rise, butterfly scoop, side pipes. The guy I got it from said it I my had 32k og miles and it proved it in the engine cross hatchings.

Not even sure what “flair” I need to add, going with exhaust because it was smoking on startup before my oil change. Getting another full change and flush within the month to help clean out the rest, but…. Yeah. Make sure you get regular oil changes and maintenance. Pretty sure I was very close to a much bigger repair bill.

Is it worth it?

I only know a very little bit of car parts and such (aircraft engine mechanic by trade) so I was wondering if you all had any niche part/car names I could possibly name him

From the Z Facebook group, people did confirm it as correct after emailing the dealer

I got my windshield replaced by safelite tuesday 10/6 around the evening. They came to my residence and changed it for me under insurance, but I wasn’t home and my parents were outside doing yard work as the service was getting done. I didn’t get home until late night from work and the next following day drove with the tape on because I looked up online that it should be kept for 24-48 hours. This morning (today) my stepdad removed the tape for me and one came right off just fine, and the other took the paint off with it.

How do I go about this? If anybody can give me some advice i’ll greatly appreciate it.

update: i drive an infiniti q50 2016!

update 2: i believe my car was repainted on the roof or the paint just weakened due to age. been dealing with 103 heat all summer. but this is my first car I bought off fb marketplace and only the roof had a few small bits of paint torn off. U can see in the corner an example of that. Never knew that white paint / cars had issues in general like this though! so thanks everybody who explained that 🙏 i assume the paint was extremely weak there, which explains the chipped paint from the beginning again. Apparently safelite will be coming in soon to check it out after i filed a report. if it ends up being up to me to fix it, i might js repaint it and if it looks like shit i’ll wrap it in black vinyl. Things happen but we also learn 🤷‍♀️ thanks again everyone 🙏🩷

I wanted a G Wagen and told myself I would save up to buy one in cash instead of taking a loan out. Well after doing the math, I knew it would take years to save that much up where as I could get a loan and pay half of what I was originally going to save every month, and I could enjoy it at the same time.

I figured, "Hey, gas is cheap while Trump is the president (I didn't vote for him, don't blame me), might as well take advantage of it cause you never know what the future will be like!"

Gotta be honest... figured I get more than a year before we started having an energy crisis. Now I've got a car note for a car that's gonna cost me $700 (at current prices) in fuel a month. I can afford it, but I'm starting to see the error of my ways lol.

Hi reddit...

In my driveway this morning I pulled out and found this sitting under where my car was. We had a heat wave recently, and I'm thinking it melted off.

Looking it up, it is a GPS tracker. I'm taking it to the police tomorrow. But is there anyway to reverse search who might have bought it and placed it there?

I fully own my car and I'm not sure who or why they put it there. Or when. The only thing I can think of is I got my car fixed by a new mechanic about a month ago.. but they didn't seem shady in the least bit

Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Update: I have turned the tracker into the police who are trying to work with the company to find out info. Haven't heard anything further.

For the people who keep asking / repeating the same thing over and over:

• again, I own my car in full and have for years. It's an old, reconstructed car not worth much at all.

• The battery life in the tracking device doesn't last longer than two months at most. It was still on when I found it. It doesn't belong to a previous car owner or a dealer.

• I found the magnets where it was attached still on my car.

• I don't have any solid idea who would put it there. I don't have a jealous partner or an ex who I think would do this.

• I'm not disclosing a bunch of personal shit about myself to internet strangers when I am potentially being stalked 😐 also , both men and women can be stalked
