Poorly worded posting? Check.
Incorrect information? Check.
Single pic out in a public parking lot? Check.


Spotting a probable scam from a mile away? Priceless!
Salvage title? Check.

Will be interesting to see where this one ends up:

Nicely optioned '99 C4.

I'd bet it's real. I don't see much to suggest that it's a scam, more likely just driven by someone who doesn't know much about it. Actual value I'd consider paying? Probably not a dime more than $3k.

If that 99 C4 goes for the BIN price (23k) or higher, that'd be pretty interesting, especially on the heels of that BaT C4 going at 24. It would be nice to see these cars stay attainable for longer, but they can't stay this undervalued forever I guess.

Could be. The single pic in a public parking lot is the big red flag for me. That just screams "I trolled a parking lot for cars to snap pics of" to me.

The rest of the issues with the ad just reinforce that feeling. I definitely wouldn't wire that guy money and wouldn't show up to a "sale" with valuables or untraceable money...

Not sure what the deal with the seats is (covers?), but I actually like it as it breaks up the endless sea of tan!

What's with all the Tips lately though?

Guess they've seen the err of their ways.

And what do you mean you don't like those sea blue polyester seat covers? Gotta protect that soft tan leather, right? ha!

Assuming you can get it over here all the way from Slovakia and get it registered legally.

I'd like to think it's a mistake, but the seller has a few up for similar (higher!) prices???
I spoke to the dealer few days back. Every listing is above market, no budging on price - I'm not sure what their end game is??
