The $200k does not make sense.

yeah, that's complete and utter BS. he could walk into any pcar dealer in the country and walk out with $350k without even trying. and, wholesale on the car is a lot more than $350k.

Default Already gone from E-Bay

I noticed the item on E-bay earlier, but can't find it listed tonight. It was the same VIN as a CGT being sold by a dealer in Oklahoma several weeks ago. Something strange about this specific car (VIN #WPOCA29825L001090), the current owner, or both. But I sure would like to get a CGT for less than half of MSRP!!!

I bet it's a scam to get the $3,000.00 deposit that he required within 2 days of the winning bid. Odds are he would have taken the $3k and run.

$0.02

it's a scam for sure and one that is run often on ebay with vehicles, especially motorcycles

not only is the car 50% off but he's going to pay for shipping himself!!! wow what a nice seller....... dont' think so

If you really want to see how much of a scammer they are, someone in NC call them up and say you want to come a look a the car and watch the excuses begin..
