I love when dealerships try to make out anything that's remotely sporty as being ungodly fast. I test drove some ITR that didn't run right once and the guy told me that it drove "like a bat out of hell when you get on it." I understand if someone who hasn't been around fast cars has a skewed sense of "fast," but an ITR is just a less slow Civic, who was he trying to kid?

I actually detail my car every week. Work part time, at the SAE shop 40 hrs, and grad school.

I just make time to do it. I used to detail at a BMW dealership for 4 years, so that might also have something to do with it

I hate when the OP say's "super clean JDM eg hatch with swap!"
When you look its a ragged out busted eg sedan.. which is a ej#, and has ebay corner lights, OEM rims, and ebay coilovers, and the swap is realy just another swapped POS SOHC....

WTF!!?

"ac blows cold, needs recharge" or "all parts there to make ac work"



whats so hard about getting it to work before you sell it. every single vehicle i have sold, i made sure everything worked before i even put it up for sale...why would you even mention it has ac unless its is working and cold?

I used to detail my Supra (when it was my daily) every 2 weeks, and I said fuck that and bought a Corolla. It's possible, but very rare.
