Funny Ebay Listing

I know this should probably belong in the craigslist/ebay thread, but I feel like no one ever looks there and with this car I doubt anyone would seriously consider buying, so mods move if necessary, but I figured with how crazy this person is it belongs in off-topic.

He's pissed about paying insurance for a car he hasn't gotten in an accident with, so he doesn't want to pay it anymore, so he is "forced" to sell it since he won't insure it, but needs insurance? K...

Forced need not be in quotes. The city he lives in your car has to be plated and insured or in the garage at all times as a "project", its like that where my parents live. either way its piss poor eBay listing.

It was when I read it, but I simply condensed and shortened it to get to the point of it. He's bitching about having to insure his car...

In the guy's defense, Neons can be expensive to insure, if you're not careful, or don't shop around.

When I bought my 1st Neon, back in 2001, (from a dealer lot, used.... it was only a couple of years old), full coverage for the car was expensive enough, that it was like buying the car ALL OVER AGAIN after less than 3 years.

I paid the car off as quickly as I could, and dropped full / collision coverage, and went to Liability only coverage.
Switching insurance companies, helped even MORE than changing coverage, too.

If you're not careful or don't shop around, that sounds more like a personal problem of stupidity vs. actually being inexpensive to insure. I'm a young male in California. I will bet I pay more than almost anyone else in some other state, with the same driving record (1 speeding ticket on record), who is the same age and gender with the same car.

IMO, if insuring a 1998 Dodge Neon is too expensive, how the hell is he going to insure anything newer, or bigger than one?

hmmm. i'm surprised these things are expensive to insure. my 01 r/t at full coverage is only 80 a month

my old neon equaled 100 dollars a month for liability

my srt 250 for full coverage
