[s-cars] NAC: A Car Sale Gone Wrong...

[Harold McComas]

Ya gotta watch out for those internutz. There is this one guy I learned of 
online, he hosted  a  fest ,  keeps talking about awesome cars he gets to 
drive/ finger bang, total nut job. He told me about a car waaay over in 
Western Mass, I'm in NH. MADE me drive out there. Of course once I drove way 
out there  I was FORCED to buy it.  To add insult to injury , he makes me 
feel compelled to keep attending these fests even though I sold my S6 back 
in '08.
