I know people who switch cars regularly but not that fast!......sounds fishy indeed!The DMV alone takes so much time and smog before you sell takes some time too,but not everyone does that before they sell.

I bought it that same morning but at around 1:00PM sold it. Then had seconds thoughts and got it back at 1:30PM. Im thinking of selling it again tonight and get a couple of Z06 to play a little tomorrow.

damn guys, youre all slacking. i bought a house last night with a z06, zr1 and a ZL1 in the garage and 2 helicopters on the landing pad on the house and my private learjet on my dragstrip behind the house, but i just sold it cause my neigher was an old guy and not a sexy girl to impress like i hoped....

but hey i made $568.87 off the deal in one day!! im a wholesaler guys!!!


























so i just signed the papers for a condo downtown toronto, the penthouse suite. They say that hugh hefner has his room right next to mine, so im definitely going to buy it without making sure he actually lives up there too... its okay tho, its only a couple mill here and there, and i make my money back + profit! 500 bucks a day is good!!

Not really a big deal my best friends dad used to run a used car dealership, we have went to the lots and driven 350z, boxsters, even a type-r integra once just to see how they drove.

Come on guys. As odd as the story sounds, it's not impossible. Wholesalers and dealers don't have to do the full plate and insurance boogie for every car that passes through. I'm not even a dealer and I've done quick sales before. Crap, I went through 50 cars in college. The shortest duration of "ownership" (if you want to call it that) was a 1979 Mercury Zephyr I bought from a roommate for $100 (it had a new battery) and traded an hour later for a 1968 Olds 442.

The next shortest was a 1973 302 Mustang. Clean, but smashed in back. Got that toad in trade for a 3-speed bike and an Atari 800. I beat on it and sold it two days later for $300.

Lol at you guys saying it's not possible to sell a vehicle that quick. Most of you must not be in the car business. I've seen cars be traded in and then sold 4 hours later. Hell my dad traded his 2009 challenger srt8 for a 2011 cts coupe and the next day the challenger was sold
