ok so im bored and im chillin on craigslist when i see this. ive seen the car around. its a b20 turbo hatch. everything is fine and dandy. shitty block for boost. looks like an ebay turbo setup. so i start reading this shit and im cracking up. when i read things like “first is first, if your not looking to own a fast car dont read on, the thing can do 0-100 in 9seconds. tops out at 167 mph”, and “some amazing engine mounts, so firm cost me around 400 just for the mounts”. then i read further to see “anyone and everyone who has seen under the engine bay have had the first words of “damn” this thing is no ordinary rice bucket, shes the quickest civic ive ever seen. the thing makes other cars look like there standing still when racing of a roll.” now im seriously dying laughing. and i cant help but email this asshat. i cant figure out whether or not to email him and tear him apart or see him in person and tear him apart. lol heres the link. its serious lawlzz [http://albany.craigslist.org/car/676170754.html](http://albany.craigslist.org/car/676170754.html)
