Autos for sale gone crazy?

Has the 6speedonline Autos For Sale site degenerated into an alternative for Autotrader? I didn't expect to see a ton of Fords and Chevys at a car lot listed there, even if by a sponsor. I think that site should be reserved for member-owned cars only. Just my opinion.

I find that slightly annoying too, as I'm browsing through the classifieds it seems there are more sponsor ads than anything else. I understand that 6SO needs to make it's money, but maybe there could be a separate subforum for sponsor cars for sale?

I haven't visit the classified section in a long time. But I understand the frustration, most people here is not going there to look for a Ford fusion. Lol

I agree.
'yourdreamcar': in this forum, Ford Focus, Ford F150, Mustang,... those items do not belong here and your target audience for those vehicles will not be found here, in my opinion. Now, if you have a GT40 or a Saleen you want to off-load, that's a different story. But those other cars belong on autotrader, not sixspeed.

I agree!

If the section was managed this way back in October, I would have never noticed the ad for the 2008 Carrera S that I purchased.
