beware of scams...i just ended my 6 months search lookin for a good deal...if it sounds too good to be true..it is...look for these retarded email address's and ask questions that they probably wont even bother trying to answer...they just copy and paste text and move on...You will probably almost always get the same response....

here are some links....

http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/ctd/1396180959.html -SCAM

check out these emails i got...if you notice they are almost identical...yet they were 2 seperate posts on craigslist in completely different cities but had the exact same images of cars...I think they just randomly grab photos offline and use them as their own...its pretty sad.

recieved from: funny_boyy@msn.com
Hello,

I have received your email regarding the 2005 Acura TL with only 52,475 miles.The car is in perfect condition,with no scratches on it,no damage, clear title.The price for the car is $4,150 with shipping included.The car was my husband`s as he loved it very much, but he did not enjoy it as he died in a IRAQ 3 month ago. It brings very bad memories to me, I want to get rid of it.The buyer will receive the car with all papers and receipts that he needs to register it to his name.Shipping will be done whit DAS and it will take no more then 2-3 days. I have a friend there who will manage me a low price shipping and I assumed that it is my duty to pay for shipping it.It will be delivered directly to your address.
Anyway, I have to let you know that I want a fast deal so if you are really interested in buying it,please reply with the following information's:
-Your full name;
-Your shipping address.(street,city,state,zip code)
The transaction will close only through eBay so we both will be protected.
I want eBay because as they are the biggest company on the internet I think that we can close this deal fast and safe for both of us. Also I am not very familiar with the internet transactions and eBay is the only one I know.
I will look for your email,so that we can move forward with this deal!
Let me know.
Regards,
Nicole Tyler

I just bought a 2005 Acura Tl 6 MT with everything...nav, hands free, leather, sunroof...has 67k miles and I spent 14k...dont expect to get one for any less unless it has a salvaged title or over 90k mileage....I got a fantastic deal by finding it on Autotrader.com...i looked in craigslist forever but finally got lucky last week on autotrader...before I found my deal I couldnt find one for any less than 14.5k....Keep lookin tho you'll find some good deals and maybe some for 13 or 14..but good luck!

Here is my car =] I got it from "trophy motors" in New Braunsfels texas...he didnt have anymore but he had a top notch dealership! I bet if you ask him to find you one he would be able to scoop it up...

SCREAMS SCAM! Watch out for craigslist listing for cars without driver license plates as they are generally scams.

this is definately a scam... too low of a price.

again: if it's too good to be true - it probably is.

why so many scam threads lately?

Has the world become that niave with e-commerce?

Its such a load-of-bull....

Either the husband died in Iraq, or I got this from the divorce!... or the last buyer flaked, and the car is in a shipping container ready to go....

i want to bitch-slap the people sitting behind the computer, trying to rip of innocent car-shoppers

Definitely a scam, i've gotten many many emails like Thomasv's. The price range is usually between 3k and 7k for years 04 to 06. Rather ridiculous. There is also scams on g35 coupes and a few audi's. i'm in the search for a new vehicle.

Why would you even ask us if you should buy it for that price?
IF it is (which it is not) just buy it!! But its a scam tell me where it is I will fly there with the cash in hand and make $10,000 selling it.. Even if it did not have a engine you prob could find a engine for $2-$3K and still make out..

If it looks too good to be true then IT IS!!
