Well, I didn't know whether or not to post this here or in The Market, but I found this Cobra on AutoTrader for sale, and wanted to make sure it didn't belong to anyone here and I was getting scammed before I pulled out a loan from my bank for it.
Does this car belong to you?

looks pretty clean,,,but not mine
Alright, I'ma wait for some more folks to chime in. I'm saving my own ass with this. Ya know?
there are a lot of scams on autotrader. if the price is to good to be true....its probably a scam!
good luck to you!
good luck to you!
man i dont blame you,,,cant afford that kinda loss,,,
do all you can against scammers.. they are everywhere.
why dont u go see the car first?
Because I work 14 hours a day, 6-7 days a week, and when I'm not at work I'm spending what time I can with my 4 year old, and I figure why waste the gas if the car isn't what the person says it is, thus me asking the SVTP community if it belongs to them before I waste any gas and/or time at the bank if I don't absolutely have to.
good idea
how far away and could you post a link to the for sale ad. We can look and tell if it seems legit or not
~230 miles or so from me.

Yea, didn't you know...all 96 Cobras with only 88k miles are going for $3,350. Paypal me the money and I'll go look for you when I get the chance. Seriously?
If you are serious why don't you try to run the license plate and get the owner's information.

Funny thing is, in the corraspondance not once was wire transfer, paypal, credit card, bank checks, or me cashing a check for $80,000 then wiring the money and a driver bringing/picking up the car mentioned. However, I've seen a few local 96-98 Cobras go cheap because the people needed money for bills more so than the car. I mean, I know we can't all be loaded off of mommy and daddy's money and get and keep Cobras and shit on a whim, now can we?
that plate is a missouri plate, not a NY plate
why not carfax it and see where the hell it was last reported

what did the guy say when you emailed him. did he say anything about ebay
Waiting on the VIN.
Nothing about eBay, Craigslist, etc etc.Which is why I decided to give SVTP a shot.
reason for selling so cheap? just be careful man, scammers have been getting better at their tricks
No use for the car, the car has sat for a bit of time.
scam and a half bro
