Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Who here checks out Contours on eBay regularly

The actual vehicles, not parts or such.

I'm guilty as charged ... definitely daily, minimum twice, can be as often as 10 times or more. (And this is just the Contours!)

There have been increasingly more eBay-related posts about Contours on these forums, so I was just wondering....

I do. I'm always running numbers on how to get myself into a WRX while keeping the monthly payment sane. Guesstimating what my 'tique might bring on eBay plays into that. Right now, I'm thinking of keeping it one more year at least then going for the Scooby.

I spent 4.5hrs walking around the NYIAS yesterday and the Scooby is the only car I saw that is somewhat similar to a Contique. The new Mazda 3 is very cool but I'm not sure how much of a handler it is. The TSX is a cracker but $27k !! for a 4 pot. The TL is droolworthy with a sticker to match. The new 300 should be a home run but unfortunately is ATX only.

Time will tell.

I just purchased this car. Transport picked it up today.....

Wow - you're a brave person to buy a car on ebay! I won't even buy a pencil through ebay, never mind a car!

Well, considering this car dealer has sold quite a bit through ebay, has very good feedback, takes very good pictures and has rated the car mechanically......all lead me to buy this....I love the leather seats, etc. I also talked with the dealer before sending my money....

There is still some risk, but I think I kinda minimized mine. You know when you buy a used car from Slim Jim down the street, you don't really have a chance to talk to other people about the cars they purchased from him....on Ebay it is quite different!!
