    Quick question. What's the story with the simple people who put an add on done deal and then write "sold" beside it?
    Is it actually sold or what? If it is then just take it down!

    Back story:
    My buddy took my '89 GT-S Corolla for a spin this summer. We were behind a semi and I wanted him to feel what real power felt like (hah) so I told him to hit third (He was in 5th going 60). Being the retard that he was, he jammed her into first at 60 mph. Pegged the tach, clutch grenaded. When I finally got around to replacing the clutch, I found a bunch of shrapnel, a raped pressure plate and a bunch of fluff in the bellhousing. The transmission and motor were fine though. That's a Toyota for you. Oh and this kid has been driving a stick since the day he got his license. No excuses for his mistake.

    Apparently the next gen 7 series will come in 720d version, ie 4 cylinder diesel engine. Is this the end of the world?

    There are ways around it.

    Seller can say their PayPal us maxed out and look for a direct bank transfer etc and people will fall for it.

    Sure what harm if it does? Buy the bigger engine if you don't like it. Simples.
