Thank you for being interested in buying my 2009 Nissan 370Z, 8,500 miles.
The car is registered on my name and the title is clear. It is in great condition, no dents or scratches.
It was always garaged and the regular maintenance was done in time. It wasn't involved in any accident and has never suffered any kind of damage. Also this is a non-smoker car. If you have any questions regarding the car just let me know! My final price on it is US $18,500. It is priced to sell fast !
I had a buyer offering $21,000 and I've lost about 2 weeks waiting for him to pay just to find out in the end that his loan wasn't approved, so if you don't need a loan, you can have it.
I can have the car delivered to your adress in about 4-5 days (the shipping fees will be handled by me). I decided to make this transaction through eBay. I believe this protects both buyer and seller and it's the right way to do this.
So don't get me wrong and don't take it personally but I would prefer to secure the deal through eBay.
I will be assured you will buy the car and you will be assured that you will receive it! Basically the money will be sent to them and they will keep the money until you receive the car and only after you inspect and drive it they will forward the money to me.
I don't want to offend you, but the car is priced for a fast sale so please if you intend to apply for a loan or financing do not reply to this message!

Look forward hearing from you,
Beverly Clement

This has scam written all over it. Ebay protection program deals are almost always scams because it only applies for sales that take place on ebay, not private ones like this. Google it to find numerous stories

My friend was looking at this car today, and again we thought it seemed a little low price wise.

What do you guys think?

I was pricing them out about 1.5 yr ago at $39k. So $2k at doesn't seem too low

Oh ok, he was saying the BB was mid 40's he must have been typing in car info wrong or something.

Lemers · 07-11-2010, 06:34 PM

Mid $40s maybe a used 2010 bit not an '08 and not after a redesign. It's a dealer and you can see the car on the lot. $38k is in the ballpark and he only has one and he's gonna play games trying to make you spend more.

fullmonty · 07-11-2010, 07:14 PM

Shouldn't the Shelby have that little plaque with Carol Shelbys signiture on the passenger dash?

Lemers · 07-11-2010, 08:00 PM

The plaque goes in the middle between the vents. But your right looks like it missing. I'd sure question that.
