Too good of a deal to pass up?

link.

$2,200
http://batonrouge.craigslist.org/ctd/2030357416.html

of course, some of you know i already have a lude that i've been working on.

but holy crap this is a good price. and the low mileage on top of that.
we've already exchanged emails once and they are local...

i would be swapping my wheels/oem kit to this car if i were to pick it up..

the car's exterior is flawless.

i feel attached to my NBP lude since i've been putting so much into it but this is really tempting..

few of the pics...

posting's been flagged, so methinks it's not legit.
If it's too good to be true, it is. But I bet that body alone would be worth $2,200.

Hell, the brakes probably cost 2Gs.

my stock exhaust would also be transferred...

that car wouldnt look anything like it does within a week of owning it...
just hope they dont get funny with the emails... scammers are on there more and more often.

the brakes are stock, just painted calipers with some drilled rotors...

SCAM written all over it. I've seen these types of listings on craigslist alot lately, where a super clean car would go for ultra low price. Thank goodness most have been flagged for removal!

when some one scams like this....they're wishing that you just send over the funds without looking at the car??
i'm sorry, but I would never hand over funds without looking at the vehicle.

or let's say you're selling a car for 5k. The "buyer" will send a bad check for 8k, then request you to wire 3k back to them to cover the "shipping."

Like the old saying goes, "If it looks too good to be true, it probably is."
