Anyone know anything about this car? There's got to be something seriously wrong at this price. Even so, maybe I should just buy it as a parts car?

It's probably a scam, if you email them they'll claim that their g'ma just died and have to third party the funds or some such BS

If you send any money to their 'escrow" service, you'll never see it or the car

Some dufus has been trying the same scam with Harleys in our local paper lately.

I don't know how you came up with that listing..it looks fake...I asked Tim to look at it and he thought it was ok but if you go to the "used car listings" at the top menu bar and put in "Porsche", "911" and "02910" that listing does not come up...I think you found it when they were testing the new feature and it is a bogus listing...here are the search results

Which would fit in well with a scam/phishing expedition explanation.

I think anything below mid to low 30s I'd start to get suspicious. Many of them are still pulling $50-60k...
