Just came across this..kind made me laugh. How do people get them selves in these situations "i don't know what a lien is".
Edit: Read add again and it makes sense, my bad.

Saw this too, can someone please get in contact with this fool and explain to him that he's a moron for buying it in the first place and try to get some background info. I'm actually curious how much the lien is for and how much he expects to actually sell it for with a lien on it.
We stopped checking for monsters under our beds when we realized they were inside us.
haha, what is with the "...with the intent of pulling the engine and putting it in my SS", uhhh ok. That is one confused individual!!
It doesn't fully give the impression that he didn't know there's a lien before he purchased it... I read it as HE has a lien on a car he bought and asking the reader to look into his lien before buying (pretty much he's saying buyer beware)

I read that as: "I bought this car knowing it had a lien on it. I was going to use the engine from it but now I don't need to, so it's up for sale. If you don't know what a lien is, don't bid"I bought this car from the original owner with the intent of pulling the engine and putting it in my SS but I have found a fully built engine I am going to use instead
There is a lien on the car. Not sure how much or why, but there is one. If you are not sure what a lien is... please do not message me

I thought it was pretty clear.

Now that i have reread the add it makes sense. Still curious does the lean have to be paid of before the title can be transferred?
Title's can be transferred even with a lien. The bank or whoever loaned the money on the car will go after who ever is on the title. They are only concerned with their money and not who gives it to them.
The way it looks to me, he is implying its a parts car.
Jesus... I would NEVER buy a car with a lien on it.

That is basically the only option, unless you are willing to pay off the lien. Because once you register the car in your name, which you are able to do legally, the lien holder now knows where the car is to go get it. They come reposes the car, and you are out the cash you paid for it.Originally posted by derpderp

The real question someone should be asking this guy is, how much the lien is for, and if someone wants to screw the guy over, notify the lien holder and they can go reposes the car...

I guess that leaves only one major inconsistency. The guy states he has no idea how much the lien is for. Who in their right mind would ever purchase a car with a lien on it without knowing how much that lien is for. That just seems like hes asking for trouble. And on that same note, I would think that unless he was marketing it strictly as a parts car (which he doesn't seem to be) the selling price would be completely dictated by the remaining amount on the lien thus the seller should really know something like that (what if the lien was near the value of the car, the seller would have to give away the car unless he trapped some ignorant fool)Originally posted by spikers

Maybe he is BSing about not knowing and the lien is large because it seems to me that you would be better off buying the car for super cheap and paying off the lien than buying the car and swapping the SC engine to another SS
BTW how the hell would someone end up with a lien on a 2005 cobalt, not like payments on something like that would be very big......
Well, if you have no morals, there are a couple options. If I was a mechanic, and a customer needed their car fixed, and i could make the engine in that cobalt work, I might buy it as a parts car. The lien holder would never find it if it was never registered again. the other option would be to grab a VIN tag off of another black cobalt and put it on this car.Originally posted by J-hop

This car sale is meant for the slime bags, and that is what this guy is hoping to attract, or the utterly stupid person that thinks that they buy the car, it is theirs, regardless of the lien, and will be in a big surprise, and then post on beyond asking for help.

This guy wants you to buy a $4000 cobalt and part it. He's not an idiot, he's a scumbag. He knows that the car is worthless unless someone is going to take it for parts and throw out the rest. That's why he's selling it for $4k. His intention is to attract someone who needs the drivetrain - the rest of the car is a bonus at that price.

Ran history. Nothing on it regarding the amount of the lien. It does however show that the car ended up at an auto auction. Possibly bank repo-ed.
another reason he is a slimeball is because he states that you CAN register the car... but doesnt state that only after this lein is payed off, you would have to attempt to register it to find out how much the lein is for.
