My buddy just bought a 1990 Corrado G60 stock, with 43k one (87-year-old) owner miles on it for $1k.
Unbelieveable.

how do you know he cheated him? the owner might have been ignorant and wanted to just get rid of the car.

Maybe not. These deals can be found if your lucky or willing to look hard enough. My dad bought an all original '68 Camaro from some older folks for $2000. Needed some work but theydidnt care what it was worth just wanted it out of their barn.

Ignorant? That's like saying it's OK to screw a retarded girl who was ignorant of the facts of life. Unless the car was really only worth $1K, but it sounds like it was nice condition, if it only had 43K miles on it. OK, then it wasn't "cheating", it was taking advantage of someone. I just can't stomach people who have no integrity. Like car salesmen.
Unless - the old guy was obviously very well off, and said he wanted it to have a good home and wasn't concerned about how much he sold it for. But based on the OP's post I have to doubt that.
If it was me doing the buying, after I got it home and had the chance to figure out what it was really worth, I would have at least offered the sellers what I thought it was worth. But that's me.
Bet these same "lucky" people would also keep the money if a cashier made a mistake and gave them too much change.

He works at a VW dealer and it was a trade in that he scooped right after the person took delivery of the new car.

I do see what your saying...
If you found a $100 bill on the sidewalk what would you do? Would you ask around to see if anyone nearby dropped it? Would you call the police? Would you just keep on walking? Unless it was obvious someone dropped it and I knew 100% it was their money, I'd probably pocket it, go home and screw my wife lol.
If the guy is selling it for $1000, then that is what its worth to him. In a perfect world, someone would give him $5000 for it, but thats life :iono:

must be nice to have money.
I can't take advantage of people just because they're stupid. Now if they're stupid and an arrogant asshole, that's another story.

Yeah do you really think an 87-year-old cares enough to find a kid who will pay $5k for it? Probably way easier to trade it for the Beetle convertible they're going to spend the rest of their days in anyway.
