I have already moved over seas, but the car is still forsale. Please wire the money to this bank over seas, once I receive the monies I will then mail you the title and my "friend" will be there when you can pick up the vehicle.

Haha jk but the price is way to low. My guess salvage title.

Man, I'm glad my NBP TL-S has the Black/Gray leather because the tan leather looks HORRIBLE in that interior.

if its a rebuild/salvage title that would explain the price....but if its a clean title, i would jump on it, its still under warranty....

I dunno? I've always been quite partial to the tan / light-coloured interior...

I think the contrast sets off the car quite nicely.....

There's definitely gotta be something wrong with it. Have you talked to the seller?

That could be a member's car.. check out those headlights & paint matched grill. I've never seen a headlight mod like that.. I like it & it's DOT compliant. The subtle mods are nice like the sedona spoiler as well & blacked out tips?.

There is no doubt that this is a scam or salvaged vehicle.

Interesting Type S-it obviously IS someone who knows and cares about their car. Besides all the things that Majofo listed, it also has a roof spoiler.

Just be careful about this car. Cross all your "T's" and dot every "I" before you buy it-just to be safe.

And by the way, the interior is not my first choice either, but it looks good.

It's a scam. I have been looking for the TL-S for like 2 months and they always have the car with a shipping company in the middle of no where and they want to use either yahoo autos or ebay autos. I always don't respond but it's 100% a scam. here's the response.


Hi,
My name is John R. Peters.I am the owner of the 2007 Acura TL Type S.The car is in perfect condition never involved in any accident, available for sale with a bottom price of $18,000.We can make this transaction trough eBay Vehicle Purchase Program $50.000 insurance.If you are still interested in my car let me know.
I have the car in Helena,MT.
Regards,
John R. Peters

I got a funny feeling about it, why is it not sold yet? Being a realtor & dealing with foreclosures, client job losses, etc. ...I have heard of people getting some amazing deals lately on all kinds of stuff. Just do your homework & check it twice.

jeez.. they finally figured it out.. if you ask for more than $3k on a $25k car, you'll get more responses. Too good to be true as always.. John R. Peters.. more like Jumoke R. Obayomi.. btw.. Peters is a common scammer last name.
