Unfortunately this one isn't shaped like a shoebox so it probably won't be well received in the Yamada household.

For an extra incentive to anyone here, I'm willing to pay a $100 referal fee to anyone who brings me a buyer. So tell your friends, co-workers, neighbors, etc!

Nope, just some dude from Spain who called this morning from my autotrader ad. I've had three calls already and just cancelled the ad. Quickest car I've ever sold and that's saying something.

Was it the King of Spain, and did he promise to send you a cashier's check for double the amount?
