In the description it does say $6000 buy it now. Seems strange to me that the guy is using foreign currency if he's located in AL. Eh, seems fishy

did you read his feedback of all the stuff he has bought..lol, everything is like those late night get rich quick scams.. id bet that $6000 buy it now only buys you the spot in line to have them build one for you, and you provide the stang

theres so much about the sale of that car that jus doesnt make sense. First off, if hes in Illinois why the hell is the odometer in killometers? why is he working with the canadian dollar. Who in their right mind would be selling that car for 6 grand. Jus the engine alone is well over 6 k. The only time I ever heard of a deal like this was when some rich lady found out her husband was cheating. He went on some business trip and she put his Lotus Esprit up on ebay for like 10 grand. The sale was totally legit and the dude that took it serious got a 90k car for 10grand.

ur wrong, the guy was an english talk show host on the radio. He was talking with a celebrity woman and said that he'd leave his wife and kids on the spot for her. the wife heard, put his lotus on ebay BIN like the equivalent of 50 cents. And she kicked him out and if you looked at the seller's recent purchases, she bought a pink dildo lol

You absolutely can't do anything. If your IQ is actually below 50 and you send money to someone in Nigeria with a yahoo or hotmail address for a car that's way underpriced via Western Union, you're completely ****ed.

Scamming rule on eBay: If you have to ask, it's a scam.
