haha ya i heard. no he was at the ptbo speedway track and was racing someone in a poopy GTP and he went around the corner and the oil left his pump so you can guess what happened lol. actually mine right now isnt fast at all cuz its at a shop cuz the bloody dipstick tube broke off at the bottom and the dipstick is out of it so i have no wheels and its gonna be expensive to fix. also i found out that my car might have been in a accident b4 or had the odometer switched so im kinda pissed right now and monday im gonna find out and if it has been in a accident or had the odometer switch. the place i bought it off of gives me back whati paid for it which is 7800. its just had waaaay to many things go wrong with it on a car that had only 100,000km on it. like the rear differential leaked like crazy, the daytime running light module fried, power steering pump went, both ball joints are shot, the turn signal column went on it, something went on the E-brake when i used it so it wouldnt seize up, and the engine bay and underneath of the hood is a completey diff color from the car, and you can see where the sprayed over things around the hood by accident. the rest of the car paint look fine inside the trunk and doors but the front is fishy. i hate being ripped off

You should be able to use a small screwdriver and a hammer to collapse the remaining piece of the dipstick tube and then pull it out with some pliers. I had to do it on a F-250 V10 truck that had the same thing happen.

did you buy it around here. if you have had it for more then 30 days your likly stuck with it. there are a few shaddy car sales men in this area i once bought a grand am had the car all of 10 min and the check engine like went on. of course the place was closed when i went back but i had a 30 day warrenty. Headed home and pulled the code and it said it was a o2 sensor. witch i just had one a car i sitting there so i took it to the shp in the morning gave him the sensor and they said it would be ready at lunch. great fast forward about a year and i have the dash pulled out and notice the check engine light is missing. The sob must have put the o2 in and then took the bulb out

no its an actual dealership and its still there. but doesnt matter he said no accidents so i could have it 5 years and i can still go back. a man who bought a car from j.j stewarts had it for 2 years then found out it was in an accident and j.j stwarts had to refund what he paid for it. its what you pay insurance on ur car for lol. i bought it from roseneath. place called neejees its a indian place.
