Last night, I contacted 'Awesome Imports' about this scam and that they really didn't have a GT2. I told him it was an RS at best. We exchanged e-mails back and forth, most were not very nice. Then I get this e-mail this morning:

HI

ok ok ok ok

i aint too big to admit we got it wrong !
we were offered this car as a genuine gt2! and obvioulsy knowing the rareity
and desirability of the cars listed it for sale almost instantly !

since your mid nite e mails i decided to get to the bottom of the problem
beacause i notced a descrepency with the stated engine sizes

and to cut a long story short i have traced this cars history and it was
manufactured originally as a 1995 carrera RS !

the report states that everything on the car is 993 GT2 spec ,
but the engine is the original RS item

sorry the the short tempered e mails but there you go ,
we arent often wrong and we were misled

im glad you made me look into it and we never set out to try and decieve
anybody we are car enthusiasts that do it as much for the love of cars as a
business

regards
paul

If you check the auction link, it has mysteriously closed early. When will these scammers go away?

 

At least he came clean with the info (whether or not this was news to him). Glad to see your investigative journalism found the truth for the rest of us! Wish the mainstream media would follow your lead
