Default Lexington/Knoxville Rennlisters?

I can't help myself -- sucker for a cheap, pretty face.

No serial no. shown, but it really doesn't have the feel of a scam. Anyone around who knows this car or can lay eyes on it??.

Default Plot thickens

Great catch, voiceprint1. Now I'm prepared to be very suspicious of my ad. The ad you found has all the earmarks of the scam: 40% of market value, brief description, no serial no. It was placed same day and same place as mine, using the same email provider. Searching 997 ads, I have sometimes seen comparable cars in the mid 20s, albeit usually with lesser mileage. So $15,000 comes across as almost credible. Might be fun to follow up.

I sent that ad an e-mail, but I am guessing it's a scammer, these pop up on CL from time to time, but usually they make the car seem low mileage with a low price.
