Yeah, yeah, yeah.  Listen up, youse guys, I am from da Big Apple myself and 
there is no greater local sport than taking a mark to the cleaners.  What 
guarantee would you have after forking over 100 large you would see any kind 
of car, ever?  Huh?  Or that the "conversions" would be more than the old 
banana in the transmission grift?  Did you ever get stiffed buying a nickel 
bag from a guy in the park?  Most importantly, the goomahs' downtown 
dopplegangers in Brooks Brother Suits, whaddya youse tink -- they're gonna 
insure such a vehicle?  And what about the people up the river past Sing 
Sing, in Albany?  Dey gonna register da ting?  Gimme a break!  This sounds 
like a con from da woid one!  Before parting with your money, talk to a 
couple of satisfied customers who have been through the process, and make 
sure they're not shills for the grift!  And make sure they're not from The 
Bronx!
