What proof do you have this is a scam, a low price?

I'm not sold on that

FWIW, I replied "please provide VIN and more detail". Didn't get any response.

This same photo surfaced about six months ago and I emailed him for the VIN. A few days later, I received a response "sorry.. the car sold... you missed out".

It's a scam.

Marco, maybe you will get more info.

Definite scam. Sent another email from a different email address and got the pics I requested. No mention that the car was sold. What a douche....

Well, I don't know if these guys are that good.... new wheels and Tires + $20,000 price tag. I think this makes it too obvious it's a scam. Maybe Cabrio can let us know when he gets to test drive the car...in Nigeria.
