HUFFPOST DETROIT Subaru Craigslist Ad Is Brutally, Hilariously Honest About Used Car's Unusual Qualities This CralgslIst ad for a 1996 Subaru up for sale in Detroit does!, t make it look particularly desirable ... but it is funny This might be one of our favorite Craigslist ads of all time. Not for what's being sold -- a 1996 Subaru Outback with almost 300,000 miles is probably near the very bottom of things we want to buy online, just above a life-size Hannibal Lecter and used belly button rings. But the seller's flair and his Subaru's totally unique special qualifies almost make us want to buy the car, or "The Toad," as it's lovingly nicknamed. We've seen some other admirable vehicle listings in our time, like this inspiring bike ad and the Pontiac Grand Am posting that promises its buyer an experience "better than your last four romantic encounters, combined." But rather than get all hyperbolic, the Detroit-based seller's genius relies on total, hilarious honesty: Check engine light has been on for about 200,000 miles. My dad put a piece of black electrical tape over it, but that fell off two summers ago, and a bumblebee got stuck on the piece of tape when it was laying on the dashboard and carried it away. Fortunately, there are "good" qualifies: Page I 1 of 2 EFTA01122039
