If you wanna sell a car...

...don't have certain things blatantly jacked up on it...like here we go with another ebay example:

If I was a dealer, I would certainly go through and at least make the car look like it was cool. Stupid **** like this always makes me laugh, like this -



and this



I hate it when body shops don't have the brain power to replace the emblem where it originally belonged, like, aaahhmmm, this seems like a good enough place for it...

but at least he is honest,

The hood and trunk lid were refinished due to sun-fading and have a slight color variation.

I'm not sure if I can see what is wrong with this car -- especially the interior shot?

Is something out of place? I've examined these pictures with my eyes for the past 5 minutes and can't see anything wrong?

Ok, sorry, I thought it was obvious...I'll be more specific...ok, so in the first picture, note the gearshift. The second, the emblem is a bit too high for comfort, but at least the dude's honest,

Why the hell can't most shops put the freakin' emblem back where it first belonged in the first place? I swear I see a shitload of bimmers & benzes with their identity thrown all over their ass end, it's just disgusting...

Ahh well spotted. After more thinking, I realised the gearshift is one for right hand drive models. It was hard for me to pick it, since the gearshift looks "correct" to me, since Australia is a right hand drive country!

I didnt realize the gearshift until Yiorgos pointed it out, however I did notice the emblem. I would never check these things over as well as you. I have a keen eye, but not THAT keen. Good catch.

Yea, the emblems are just stupid. Its not that hard to put it back where it was...

And there is definately iformation out there with the correct dimensions to use to fit the badges in the correct location, and the correct height... I think realoem.com shows it??
