Ebay

rand49er · #1 (**permalink**) 12-15-06, 06:07 PM

I go there every other day or so and type in "CTS-V" and usually get 160-190 "hits." As usual, among the many cars for sale and occasional CAI, today there were 16 of those highly dubious (that's being as nice as I can be) gas saver tornado doo-hickies. I sure hope no one here has been suckered into getting one of those. Other than that, anybody use ebay for their V?

Hey!!!

Yep, I go on Ebay quite often. I've mentioned it before to the forum guys to go on every few days to see whats new on there. Hey, thats where I got my Kooks headers, hi flow cats, Corsa from 2 different sources and new never used totaling 1600.00 delivered. Got my FG2's new from a dealer on there 6 months ago for 520.00 delivered. Now how can you beat those prices??? Not to mention a few other items.

my car has 3 tornados in series, 6 electric superchargers, and 3 fuel line magnets which gets me 5000HP and 600MPG.
best part is how cheap them damn things are!

You forgot the "vortex" spinning exhaust tip. Remember those?

Seriously though, I type "CTS-V" into Ebay every week or so, but all I see are crappy Rikko models, tornado gas savers and used cars "LIEK NEW400HPLUXURY!!!!!!", so I haven't bought anything.

You'll need racing fuel with all those power adders. You should run a 50/50 mix of octane boost and super unleaded - should do the trick.

I use this search string in car and truck parts:

cts-v -gas -mileage -mpg

Indeed,I got my V two weeks ago on Ebay.The greatest thing was that the car was located in Houston so I got to test drive it before bidding on it!
That took away the fear factor.
The V was sitting on Caddy's lot( an ex Caddy salesguy was selling it ). Got a stock '04 with 25kmiles,perfect condition with 100k miles extended warranty for $28900

Cheers

Its too bad. The tampon dispener would have made a great gift. The passenger noise reducer is also sold out!

Piston return springs are da bomb. Gives the flux capacitor more gigahertz.
