The cars prettier than the girl, yes girl.  I think she's younger than my kids.  That's pretty creepy.  I can see this guy saying "Honey, can you put on a bathing suit and stand next to daddy's machine?"  How hokey is that?

I was waiting for someone to bring this up.....I have nothing against models but they will never help a sale, only hurt it. I'm just surprised he of all people went this route. If he is as great as he thinks he is, his machines should sell themselves. Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

I saw it the other day.  I do like her shoes.  I bet no one else even looked at them...

Mygoose is correct.  If his reputation is so good, there is no reason to add sex to help sell.  It's like the guy on ebay selling all the signs with his faceless girl holding them.  He is using her "assets" to draw attention.  But if you ask him, he denies that being the reason.

Yea this is a little creepy, she appears to be about 15 or 16.

I've noticed that many folks here don't seem to care for Carl.   Not sure why that is.  I've done business with him on multiple occasions and comes through every time.

Maybe its his use of crack models that rubs people the wrong way.

Read his eBay auctions. That should give you an idea why he is not liked. I must warn you though, you must give yourself about 2 hours to read.

..........you must give yourself about 2 hours to read.

         Has anyone ever read ALL of his auction description before?

         I can't get past the part where he describes himself as the best restorer in the world and that the rest of us are all cheaters, out to rip off the consumer.
