Perhaps the best craigslist ad ever

Selling an Alero. No year given, but does it really matter? I wonder if the cat comes with it. For that matter, I wonder if SHE comes with it!

I know a number of people who are over 65 and shake. I'm almost there myself!

Here's the ad text, in case it disappears.

Buy my piece of **** car! 😊 Hey, my name is Lauren and I just recently graduated with my Associate of Business Degree as well as my automotive certificate through Yavapai College in Prescott, Arizona. I am just your average girl looking to sell her piece of **** car to pay off student loans/debt! I'm starting the bid at $800 OBO because the list of things wrong with this junker goes on and on! Starting with the drivers side window does not work, it is held up by pieces of itself, there is obvious body damage (not my fault but I rocked it), the front window is cracked, the key is impossible to turn sometimes, it shakes over 65, the power steering leaks (gotta fill her up about once a month or she squeals at you), I just got the tires a few months back, (still paying those bad boys off) but one leaks, the front end is smashed up under the hood from not one, but two people hitting me while I was parked, the headlights are practically facing straight down, it most likely needs all new steering and suspension, and it's also high mileage! Somewhere around 160,000. On top of all of that, she has a salvage title, I'm not too sure why, but she drives straight! One good thing about her is she has successfully transported me to and from work for years without fail! So if you just happen to be wanting a junk *** car, she's definitely the award winning piece of **** you're looking for!

Thank you for your time!
Your friendly broke college student,
Lauren

It's 2002 and up Alero. They stopped painting the OSRV mirror covers in 2002. The good news is that the body is not rusting behind the door along the rocker like most did up here in the rust belt.

Check out the cat looking at the dented fender! A smart shopper no doubt!
