espically considering that the guy who's selling it hasnt sold anything at all before...

You could get another 8k or so easy and still sell it within 2 or 3 days...

yup it would be more believable if it was $20000

$8000 is just crazy

sent them an email, just wait for the reply and see if it was like the last one that was a scam.

It reeks of the same dude who was trying to sell the boss 429 mustang a while back. I would bet that is you ask you will find the car is 'somewhere else' but he will arrange everything.
Being as how he says it's in north loddon, I would demand to see it .. but I reckon it will be pulled from sale before the end anyway.

If he was happy with $8,000 then cash for cars I am sure could help out.

only 2 real dodgey things are the addy (doesnt exist) and the user name espaniolmelinlee which is very similar to the other scams of similar cars in the same (non existant) town.
as for the price theres nothing wrong with that...a low starting price produces interest.
also at another look the plate says it was built 08/01 yet they say it was built JAN 01 and 3 year warranty also runs out from the manufacture date not the date it was first sold as they will have you believe.

Iit appears you have already worked out this is a SCAM.

I guarantee he wants $3000 up front and he will tell you where the car is for viewing........ Sounds very similar to the HSV GTO that he wanted $15000 for.

I could be wrong..but the car looks different in a couple of the pics..one of them has the windscreen water shooter thingy's same colur another they are black...plus the front plate looks white with black writing in one pic and black with white in another..plus the tread on the the 2nd pic looks slighty dif to the 2nd last pic..though i could be wrong..though i'm no expert...
