No techs were like the read headed step children. They would get fired on the Spot. I was a Salesman. I was the salesman who was out in the pouring rain at midnight helping a customer who had broke down. who wasn't even my own. I would always show customers cars (used) that I knew none of the Salesman had beat on.

The Red cobra was a trade in for a Lifted F-150 (lived in the same city as me). He did a burn out when I went to pick up his trade, called a blind trade. We would agree to terms as long as the trade was as clean n had the miliage told. Anywho, his buddies asked me to do a burn out also before I left. We would beat on cars that were on the trade/auction lot. The customer I helped in the rain purchased a WS6 with like 130k. I told him to look at other cars as I had drove that car n felt like it was on 5 cylinders. He went ahead n bought it from a different salesman. So I thought it was "cute" to help out people with a car they would have for years.

So you went to pick up a trade in? I sold cars for Ford and never heard of this...

So you did a burnout in this Cobra because his buddies asked you to. Do you realize how big of a dumbass this made you look like? Not only could you have lost you job by someone calling Ford and telling them what their sales person was doing, you were flat out making your dealership look like a joke.

"We" would beat on cars that were on the trade/auction lot? Either way if your dealership sold them or not you were shitting out the next owner of the car. Beat on your own car, not someone else's. But yet you would turn around and help buyers get cars that wern't beat on?

Damn you sound like a complete retard. I hope for your dealer's sake and the customers of that place that you are a liar.

Jdm gsr with ls trans is a 14.80. Jdm gsr with gsr trans 14.30. So if its lucky on a 75 shot it might run a 13.70 might that would be on tire sprayin out the hole drivin the **** out of it

I don't even think with just a cold air intake it would hit 14.80s with the LS transmission. The JDM engine is barely stronger than the US version. Even with his chipped P28 EDU I doubt it is making more than 170 hp at the wheels. So even with the GS-R transmission, I see mid 14s, low 14s on a tire.

Edit: Especially with no limited slip.

So if I get a job at GM does that mean I am a LSx expert and can drive better than Evan Smith? lol. You kids make me laugh. I used to hate all the noobs ( a lot of them young) because all they did was spew **** out their mouth but now I actually like it. Cause I laugh and can't believe people are this dumb when it comes to cars and they actually believe that they can BS a true gearhead that knows what he's talking about.

Time for more beer kids.

Where did I say you were lying? With those modifications, that time is no more unbelievable than mine. But a (basically) GS-R with a chip and a CAI isn't going to out run a Cobra from a dig without a Peru big **** up on the Cobra driver's part

Gsr Tranny. Ya I looked like a big dumb *** when their frineds bout 2 vehicles from me later on. Blind trades are done, so don't know what to say. Great credit helps. **** that dealership, I was fired cuz I desk manager was mad he lost 25K on the super bowl. Threw papers at the ground n told me to get em, told him I was no dog to throw **** at. As far as beating on the cars, they would all be checked and ran thru an inspection, if they needed anything at all, it would get done.

Maybe I shouldn't have beat on the cars n steered them away from beat on cars. Should have been like the shady old man who sold a van with an $ 800 "Vortex Generator" aka a 50 dollar tornado from pep boy. Ur right should have been shady like the rest n not have made the dealership look bad, lmao
