$1200 2006 LS in Illinois (COP, no title)

Couldn't not share this.

Beautiful car for $1200. Jackass says he won't get a title even though he has a Certificate of Purchase. (Maybe I read wrong, but it seems like thats all you need to get a title. Unless he/his company went about it the wrong way)

Still, $1200, the thing looks gorgeous. Wish I had means of transporting it back. Id be all over it.

Also, he put V6 in the Craigslist info section. Aren't all 06'es V8's?

Those damn stick on woodgrain stickers....

Yes, all 2006 were V8s. Another give away is the message center. Only V8s have that.

Never mind...

I don't know... I think I would pass. Why was it never reclaimed? They apparently didn't take too much care when they had it...

Ive actually heard this scenario quite a few times. The car could've even had a lien on it from what i've read, so maybe they stopped making payments and dumped it, or hell, could've been owned by a foreigner who left the country, who knows. If it was closer to me, id be on it in a heartbeat, but unfortunately it'd only be a parts car.

Right. Something just seems shady, but id still take it for parts at that price. Maybe get him down to $1000, who knows.
