I believe Alan is correct, fire/smoke damage. You can see the front passenger marker light and side trim inserts started to melt. I’m guessing the entire car was engulfed in smoke and soot.

And you can get the smell out, it just requires pulling and replacing the entire interior.

Despite these quirks, this thing went pending in a matter of minutes.

Allegedly.
I call BS.
Unless we have a rash of moronossis.
Even still, I can't wait to see what happens next!
This is my new favorite thread.

For reals though, no one is taking this thread seriously.....right? The mere thought of speculating "what could be wrong" is equivalent to deciding which psychotic drug to take while searching for Tiffany on other forums.
I'm sorry boys/girls/theys, but there has to be a standard.....unless we all agree to take mushrooms on the same day.....which is another standard in itself I suppose. Same same.

So was this an add for a truck or nefarious ladies of the evening?

A friend of mine picked up a 2006 AMG G in town at a "for sale by owner" lot for $16K. Twin turbo, 500 HP, with less than 100K miles. Sure, it used a ratchet strap to hold the hood on, no back seats and the back doors were not openable. Ok, the fender flares all had cracks and the center console was a mass of wires, but the engine, transmission and body were solid. It was a Nevada truck, and had no rust. He's a private Mercedes mechanic and thinks the fix will be $8000 in parts + his time.
So even rather horribly treated trucks can have a future!

This one was at 30k Eddy. Not much room for the fix up costs left. Good coat of wax and a vacuum maybe.
