Has anyone done business with Giddycars.com? Several reviews stating they are foreign scammers and using info and pics from legit websites. "David Brady" is the "dealer". He's got a beautiful black modded 03 cobra with 20k miles for $30,000 tax, shipping and licensing included. Love to buy it but seems like a scam.

Well, I attempted to go to the site, and my anti-virus aborted it. That should tell you something.
Good thing I opted to researching them further once I heard him on the phone this morning. I was ready to send $30k for this gem. It's on their website. Nice black one. Like to find out who really has it.

What do you mean? You dont believe he actually has the car in his possession?

Scam.

So at $30,775 taxes and shipping are included?

I would find it reasonable that taxes would change based on where you live, and shipping most definitely would.

Secondly...no VINs posted.

Thirdly... 2003 Ford Mustang for sale in Tampa, FL - $37,995

Wow! Yeah glad I bailed. There's other reviews of guys saying he steals ads from Streetsideclassics.com and they are investigateing him. Typical foreigner scumbags. Hope they catch him.

Damn it. So thankful I didn't pull the trigger on that car and throw a bunch of money away. 25yrs younger and I'd done it in a heartbeat. Lol. Welp I'm still searching. $40k budget folks low mileage please.

Read all the information you can in the Terminator section, especially those posted by CobraBob. I understand his articles are Terminator Bibles.

Good luck on your search!

Absolutely no way would I buy a car without seeing it in person. Too many scams and misrepresentation of condition. I drove to SC to pick up my 14 GT500 and trailered it back.

Yeah definitely a huge risk in it. There's 2 nice ones I'm eyeing right now. One is in Detroit and the other is in Missouri. Both will ship personally but need a small deposit to hold then I'll pay them cash once they get it here to my home. That I'm willing to do.

An automatic transmission woulda done it for me.

Meh, the ad description says 6 speed manual. I've seen that mistake more than once but I'm still not willing to take a chance. lol

Right. I'd call them first before bailing. Could be a nice ride and legit deal.
