Everyone needs to contact Crowne via email, call, or live chat on their website regarding this rip off of a car.

They blew up the damn car had to take it all apart and replace a motor/turbo etc... Now some poor sap is going to unknowingly buy it. I really do feel bad for whoever they sucker into buying that mess

Any idea who built the car and when this happened? From my understanding they got the car from a trade in and some salesman beat the crap out of it and filled it with 87 then it blew is this correct?

Alot of the used cars that dealerships have come from auctions too, so that car may not even be local

I'm guessing a guy in their service dept put the car back together. I can only imagine the horror.

The guy putting it together as per the message on page 2 apparently stated himself he does not know much about these cars. Though it is only bolts, this will definitely kill the price on the car which is already marked 6k or more than it should be selling for in the first place

i work at the lamborghini dealer across the street. i had someone come up to me while working and told me they blew the motor. i checked it out one day after work before they blew it up. pretty solid car. i laughed at the price though. way too high. they had a motor on the way for it from what i heard. even so there may be an issue there that still lies even after a replacement motor. could be a tune issue, im sure its tuned if they had money for a cop and whatnot. just forget that one its a lost cause for the price especially.

and yes they ran 87 through it. so there may not be an issue with something else, but i just get a bad feeling from it all together.

The crappy thing after reading that link is the mech is still trying to half *** everything. A different used motor and turbo and cant wait a week for oem fluids and wants to use different.

You need to bring the title back to your state and get it registered. Also some state laws may be different as to what requirements are needed so contact your local motor vehicle office for more information.
