Scion xB (2005)
for sale

Price: US $500.00

Description:

Ready for Race Day…
Just traded and this one has a real taste for speed and style, this Scion xB toaster box runs excellent with a cold air induction intake, aftermarket exhaust, 5-speed manual transmission and goes down the road quick and steady as a rock. The four-cylinder motor purrs like a kitten and sounds great through the big tail pipe. There are no leaks underneath and the 5-speed shifts smoothly through the gears and the clutch is strong and right in the middle. The brakes and suspension are quiet and go down the road without a fault and the VSC and check engine light are on for a system lean code probably due to the aftermarket intake. This car is blast to drive and I can’t find fault in the mechanical department. The interior is in excellent shape with no rips or tears in the sport cloth seats, perfect carpets and headliner, nice dash, no burn marks or bad smells and all the power windows, locks, mirrors, stereo and heat work great. The A/C doesn’t blow cold but it’s quick off the line and most race cars don’t have A/C anyhow. The body looks good with typical nicks, scratches and a ding on the drivers door but no big rusty holes and the paint shines nicely even without being detailed. The wheels look good and are wrapped in a like-new set of Hankook tires all around. A couple cracks on the lower valence, broken side mirror, and cracked windshield across the bottom and out of sight are worth mentioning but this one still looks neat and is ready for the road. If a fun-to-drive and unique car has you perked up and you weren’t looking to spend big money at a retail dealership, this one will be sold with no reserve so thanks for looking and good luck with the auction.
Best Regards,
Barry

Terms and Conditions - Full Disclosure
Please read this information thoroughly prior to placing your bid

They will accommodate all our customers within their normal business hours which are 9-5PM on weekdays and on Saturdays from 9-12PM. You can of course bring your own temp tags if you prefer. It is mandatory that if you need plates you arrive within these business hours and bring with you your drivers license and your insurance card for your present car.

Wholesale to the Public
We are wholesalers in the automobile business since 1949 and the mainstay of our business is to supply other dealers with vehicles that we have either traded or purchased in a wholesale capacity “as-is” with no warranties either expressed or implied.
Regarding Liens
None of our cars are sold with existing liens on them and all titles are in hand when the cars are sold. Since eBay has decided to include history reports on all the old cars as well as the late models, there are lien records showing up on the reports. All cars have had liens on them at one time or another especially when they were newer. Our cars do not have existing liens.
Administrative Fee
We have sold over 5000 cars on eBay in the last six years and have never charged any fees. However, the cost of doing business recently has skyrocketed out of sight and we are forced at this time to ask for a nominal $75 fee on top of the price of the car sold and any motor vehicle fees. I truly apologize for this change in policy however the cost of doing business and the increasing number of no show bidders dictates this moderate administrative fee.
“Prior to re-conditioning”
We test drive our cars prior to offering them for sale on this auction and any faults are disclosed to the best of our ability. We do not run them through a service facility but rely on our experience to tell you what problems they may have. Our prices are generally way below the average retail values listed in the most popular pricing guides so our cars are not detailed or re-conditioned but sold in the same way they were purchased or traded. They are simply washed and put out for sale. You will not find the motors cleaned and you won’t find shiny protectorates such as “Armor-All” on them and the cars will be in their original traded condition. This allows you to buy the car for less money and me to do less work. If you are receptive to buying a car in this fashion, the savings are yours. Because we sell our cars all over the world and in every state, inspections are not guaranteed in any state as each state differs in their requirements so it is virtually impossible for us to guarantee inspection. Options such as power windows, cruise control, air conditioning etc. are not guaranteed however we will do our best to mention any items that are not working. Check engine lights and others will be mentioned if they are showing. We will not under any conditions guarantee the check engine lights or any dash warning lights and we do not do a diagnosis to see what it is because they can come on at any time for any number of reasons so these lights are not guaranteed if they come on for you.
This is a unique way of selling automobiles and if you are receptive to these conditions you will take advantage of the lower prices.
“0” feedback bidders should call or email prior to placing your bid
We do not want to discourage you from bidding, only to verify that you are serious! Without this contact your bid will be cancelled. Buying a car on eBay can be exciting and yet confusing and we simply want to help you make the right decision and have fun in the process.

Payment
If you are a winning bidder, kindly contact me via email immediately at the end of the auction for verification. Our requirements are that the high bidder should pay an immediate deposit of $500 via PayPal upon completion of the auction and the car should be paid in full within 7 days via cashiers check, cash if in person or money order. The deposit can also be made over the phone via MasterCard or Visa; however, payment in full cannot be made with a credit card or PayPal. If payment of the car is not fulfilled within the specified time, the car will be offered for re-sale and feedback will be left accordingly. Let’s not waste each other’s time.
Bid with confidence
We pride ourselves in selling automobiles in an honest and professional manner. Rest assured, we will do everything possible to make your buying experience a pleasurable one, especially after the sale.
