I saw this car on eBay a month or so ago when it was ligit. I'm almost possitive the car had less miles and was high $50's. I bet that VIN is not for this car. I know I saw this car listed somewhere else before. Definately a scam. Otherwise, I would have jumped all over this car.

I just E-mailed the guy on the 03. Told him I would buy it now if it was 30K and I would fly down Saturday to close the deal, lets see what the reply is.

Cars.com is a hotbed for scams. Almost every high end car has a scam listing.

What kind of wheels are on that car?
Nevermind, they look like CCW 19's... in fact, one of the pics is from the CCW website!

Tell him that just by coincidence, you will be in London all next month. You are leaving in two days.
You can save the transfer fees by meeting him and taking delivery right there in London.
Tell him you will take care of the shipping through your company.

A guy contacted me a few weeks ago with a similar scam. It was London and his story was "My brother died and left me the car and I just want to get rid of it." it was through Square Trade bull sh&t too.
