Must be a typo or a scam or salvage. i agree with you racer. if not that would be my next car. i don't know if i even want to find out since it is in CA.

The nose has had the license plate holes filled and looks to be bulged a little at the leading edge of the trunk.

If it's not a scam I suspect a tip, salvage title and mileage issue all rolled into one.

Were TIPS available with LSD? Agreed on the bumper having been "filled" but those Cali guys are nothing if not stylish.

Your kung fu is good! Streather says no LSD for tiptronic.

It is a scam. There is a thread on Rennlist about it and the guy that owns it piped up. He just bought it last week.

So how does the scam work? You call the guy from Virgina, send him money to hold the car or pay out right and he agrees to ship it, and is never seen from again? So this guys got pictures of a car and he is offering for sale, but doesnt have a car. i am tempted to call and play along for a few days. tito
