Seems like he does a lot of high-speed driving...at least he reduced his asking price accordingly. He originally had it with a Buy It Now of $15000!

Seriously, though, if he doesn't even know how many miles the car has on it how is anyone to trust the rest of his description??? Like I said before, buy from a dealer on ebay and you are buying a car someone spent 5 minutes looking at!

Well, he may have just been handed the information to list or something and made an error somehow. Doesn't mean he can't be trusted. However if I were interested in buying the car I'd have to make plans to see it first (or have someone I trust check it out first) before opening the wallet. Many times the person listing the car online isn't even the seller of the car. Still, I wouldn't pay any of the asking prices for that car. Must be really sluggish with its non-turbo engine (it's a non-turbo right?).
