Subtlety is an often underrated element of humor. This dude in Australia who has listed his “Supra project car” on the Aussie on-line marketplace known as Gumtree covers the subtle humor angle perfectly with this ad. We’re not even sure what else we should say about the whole situation other than this seems like a guy who would be fun to have a beer with. “Stripped for weight reduction” seems to be the understatement of the newly minted year.
In case the ad gets pulled down we have posted the photos and the complete text below. If you are in the market for a Supra in Australia, especially one that needs a little work to be finished, this is the deal of the century. Hell, there’s even a couple of snow tires thrown in for next to nothing!
Thanks Steve Metcalf for the tip!
Here’s the text of the ad –

This is imported from Japan and I have removed most parts for my other car (toyota supra) and dont see myself finishing this one

” The king has no clothes…” or is this a metaphor of the loss of Aussie car manufacturing?
Ha!
Ozzies have a great sense of humor.
I like his sense of humor, maybe he can get hired on the Obamacare marketing team.
I sold one like that last year and got good money for,it’s a hard to find item
I’m so tired of people not finishing projects…
