NOT MINE - 2010 Golf TDI DSG w/ 210k in VA - $23,900

[crast]

Saw this a few days ago on Craigslist and I thought some of you might have a good laugh. There's so much to unpack here, I don't know where to begin.

VW Golf Diesel (black with paddles) - collectibles - by owner - sale - craigslist

You have probably heard a lot of negativity about diesel VW. America hated 45 mpg from a safer, better handling car just like it hates people who don't use credit, tell the truth about the news, and...

What did I just read? So confused..... Six figures?

What just happened here.

"This car will be worth 6 digits a decade from now"

Ok, so he's predicting hyperinflation. All cars will be worth 6 figs in that scenario.

 

[xccoach4ever]

The rant must make the price of the car go up!

 

[MrCypherr]

If thats the case, then I should be able to sell mine for almost 6 digits 10 years from now when it has 1 million miles on it and possibly a little rusty. Does he think ICE cars are going to be gold by 2034? LOL.

Too much tetrahydrocannabinol

I was actually going to ask if this was your CL post (for the pure EV hatred)

I found an ALH+01M NB on CL for $13k. It does have only 35k miles on it, and looks to be very nice, but I'm not sure it's worth that much.

Also a 2002 2.slo stripper Jetta for $8k.

But the cost of stuff is reflecting some of these insane [asking] prices.

"lowered 1.4 inches in back"
"chopped front springs 1.5 inches for a more serious drop"

Definitely not something i would do. Granted, it makes "pothole accidents" sound more plausible, but still... no.

 

[lemoncurd]

" Up front I tightened the springs with TüV approved neuspeeds and have paperwork, but chopped them down by about an inch and a half for a slightly more serious drop. "

i stopped reading there. dude's a f***ing nutcase.
the listing is either a joke, or this dude needs to be studied at the mayo clinic for a new mental illness

It takes all kinds, doesn't it?
