Well where do I begin......
it began about a little over a week ago. I got an offer from the Zilvia user Mofuxx about this FS/FT MostDope's 1995 240sx S14
Well its mostdope's 95 s14 240sx w/ a rb25. Well we began going through details of a trade and then decided we would trade. After various e-mails and texts w/ more pictures and details about each others cars we both agreed. Our 1st day set to meet was thursday September 8th. Well @ 3am september 9th morning I received a text saying he couldn't meet due to being called into work and he wouldnt get off until late in the evening. I understood, because from chicago. illinois (Mofuxx's home) to clarksville, tn (our designated meeting ground) was a 8 hr drive. Due to me having to go out of town september 9th - 11th for military reasons we decided to reschedule Monday, September 12th @ the same location of clarksville, TN. The morning came and I tried texting and calling and was unsuccessful w/ getting a hold of him luckily I decided not to leave until I heard from him and made sure we were still on. Around 7pm that night he texted me and said he was on the road headed to Clarksville, Tn and he was going to get a room for the night and we would meet Today, September 13th morning well I figured fine that works as long as he was 100% sure we would meet and everything was good to go which I asked and he said yes. T-mobile was just not allowing him to get good reception on the road. So 6am today I woke up I'd be traveling from Chattanooga, TN which was a 3.5 hr drive to Clarksville, TN for me. I prepped my car for a road trip and set out w/ a buddy riding w/ me. I texted Mofuxx along the way while we were headed up there, but never got a text back. All I thought was that he was possibly still asleep and when he woke up we'd meet. Once I got a hour or so in my journey I realized time went back an hour, so I was definitely more ahead of schedule which to me is definitely a good thing. Finally, I arrive at clarksville around 8:45. I called and texted Mofuxx repeatedly and never got a reply or answer. 12 noon rolled around and I decided to head back home it was obvious something wasnt right here. Now to my fellow Zilvians why would someone do this? As fellow car enthusiasts why would you set someone up to travel somewhere if you had no intentions of ever meeting them anyway? Maybe to some this is just a back burner hobby to me cars is a lifestyle. I spend my days workin, researching and enjoying them all day everyday. Can someone explain? I just dont understand.

moderator deleted my old post in cars for sale even though it was to warn other Zilvians not to get scammed seemed like the appropriate place to put it.

"Its not a back burner hobby, its a life style"

I'm gonna add that on my list of famous quotes like "I live my life a quarter mile at a time." and "It's not how you stand by your car, it's how you race your car."

Yea i felt like it but I just wanted to rise above it and just move on.
but I wanted everyone to be warned. I figured moderators would check him out and see if he's real or just spam.

Just let this be a life lesson...the world is full of bitches and flakers. Next time, just don't put yourself in this kind of situation. They wanna trade cars, they better drive down to you do a trade. Same shit with selling anything here. Don't let folks call "dibs" on shit, first come first served with cash money on hand. You're 20 yrs old, you'll figure it out sooner than later.

was it the r32 skyline you were trading him for?
because if so that wouldn't be a good idea in my eyes.
240s are a dime a dozen, skylines are hard as hell to get unless your chuck norris lol jp

He backed out because he didn't want to trade afterall and was too snatch to tell you like a man so he left you hangin'. Sucks but zilvia is FULL of flakers, low ballers, and little kids....

Damn, I'd be pissed. That has happened to me a couple of times. But the drives were around an hour long, not as long as yours. It's bullshit, if two people reach an agreement to trade/sell, then they need to show up! And if someone changes their mind, then let the other guy know! It's not hard to say "hey man, i changed my mind". And in your case, I'd keep the R32! 240's are everywhere! I've never even seen an R32 here.

Yea I'm debating on keeping it unless a really rare deal comes my way.
I love the car. yes, it may need a little work but no motor work whatsoever. The car has never seen a boost controller and I dont abuse it. I dont drive it daily. Not because I couldnt but simply because I dont want to nor do I have to.
I'm currently trying to locate a front bumper for her then go from there.

Don't mean to revive an old thread but, Wish I would have checked this before. I have a promisary note from him, after trading my STi. He wasted time blaming usps etc. Money was supposed to be here the 19th of September. He had problems registering the STi 2 weeks ago, so I helped figure out the title issue. Told him to paypal the money. Now I'm going to have to drive my happy ass up to illinois for small claims.. Kid is a JOKE. Ruining the scene one douchebag at a time.
