The car it is available and is in excellent condition, no accidents .The price is $8000 US and it includes*shipping costs. But you must know that*I live in London, United Kingdom and the car is here. This is my personal car and I have posted the ad on this web site because I want to sell in US . The car has US title and is clean so you will not have any problems when you will register it. The car has passed the emissions test and comes with all the documents you need to register.*The total shipping cost from London to your location*is $2000 US and I will need these money in advance to take care of the fees. As soon as the car arrives, you will test the car and if it does not match 100% your expectations, you will return it in maximum 15 days*from the arrival date. In this case I will send you the full amount back, upon receipt of the car. Time is an important issue for me, but obviously security and*buyer satisfaction*are of greater importance.
I sincerely hope to do this transaction with you.
Best regards!
yeah no kidding!i told him no thanks! that i am in my right mind and wouldnt never send money so he sent me this:

Dear Sir,

I want to take this opportunity to assure you that this deal is as legitimate as it could possible be. There is nothing to be worried about this deal. I never fooled someone in any way. I won't risk my career, my freedom and my future for anything in the world. You can count on that. I would rather close this deal with other person than to know that you'll be very stressed hoping that I am a honest person, until you receive the car. Your peace of mind is a lot more important than this deal. If you decide not to go through with it there is no problem. I got quite a few offers left. Get back to me and let me know what you decide .Thank you for your time and interest. Whatever you decide I wish you good luck.
Best regards.
but wait there is more!!! notice he never puts down the name and that he refers to me as sir when i am clearly a woman. i wrote to another guy who had an ad on yahoo who also seemed to good to be true and guess who it was??
