You're simply not the customer he wants to convince with his "marketing" ... you wouldn't buy the car even if there wasn't any video added. However imagine you are looking for a moded car...

I have to wonder how much ebay charges to run vids. The car.. well I had an iroc 5.7 as a track car not that long ago with a full custom race suspension. Not a bad car, but not something id want for the street.

One thing I was wondering... They say it has an automatic in one part, but then they say it has a 4spd, and there are three pedals in this picture;


Is that third pedal just a parking brake or something?

Anyways, very cool way to market their cars!

4-Speed Automatic.

Looks to be a Parking Brake since my friends muscle car is the same way.
