    So what? If someone has the balls to try and sell something for a stupid price, and someone is dumb enough, or desperate enough, to pay that price, then so be it.

    If we are going to ban people for specifying a ridiculous amount of money for things, then everyone here who has ever tried to sell RA25 parts would be banned also.

    Why not use a real example, everyone knows RA25's are just a made up car.

    Nah, Toyota sold the RA25 for a few years, before realising that looks could kill.

    They bluntened the looks a little to keep the public safe, and released the second sexiest model, the RA28.

    Ahh, a man who knows the truth!!!! And, other than me, most possibly the only other person in these forums that owns a 25 and a 28, and therefore knows what he is talking about.

    No, they were the pathway to perfection. Once they ironed out the shitty front end, there was nothing stopping the god like looks... except the RA40!!

    Notice how the RA25 started with the stubby front end, then got longer like an RA28, then became an RA28 (with the associated better front suspension too)

    As for people advertising for rediculous prices, it happens everywhere. Unfortunately there is a wood duck in every barrel, and there is likely to be somebody to pay the stupid price. Unlike when you advertise something for cost of postage plus $5 to make it worth your while to go to the post office, then nobody wants to pay such a premium!!
