This sure looks a lot like a PI ad!!

Automatic??

George, you might want to check this EBAY ad out. I think he's scamming your car listing. It's the same car as the one you have pictured in front of the Ford Building

It is the same car, right down to the plumbers strap on the intake, unless that is a common add on... New ebay user also.

Is it just me?
The wheels on this car don't look like they fit the wheel wells very well?

No its the same......he even plagerized most of the description. It is actually a PIM car with an offer pending. I wonder if this guy is trying to sell the car on Ebay, use that money to buy it from PIM.

Just thought of something else. Isn't PIM a consignment house? If so this could be the current owner.

Sometimes true........

Ebay ad lists mileage as 50,000+ where as PIM mileage is under 20,000

It looks like a scam auction to me.

Some of those characteristics being: 1) an unrealistically low price 2)pictures lifted from another site or auction (PI) 3)a seller with an ebay rating of 0 (4)a bunch of bidders who think no body else noticed it an are going to steal the car

I see why I want to hang here why I look for a car!!

I reported your good catch to Brother Dave at PIM, and indeed it was 'lifted' from their site. Steps being taken, should be off ebay soon.

That a way to keep a lookout!

Where do you see the unrealistically low price? $12k, reserve not met...

Although I do concur...most likely a "send deposit thru escrow" scam.

Damn Danny, you moving back to hong kong? You could ship it on one of them empty boats going back to china to load up on lead based toys. I bet that wouuld be a cheap way to get your car back home.

Huh?

I'm moving to my new home out West where there is only a 2-car garage. My warehouse here has parking for 8 cars. Hence, I must "thin the herd" and get rid of 6 cars. I am keeping the two Porsches and everything else has to go. When I can buy another building out West, I'll start-up my collection again.

Danny,
what else are you selling? (if you dont mind me asking)

Huh?

Don't you remember when you first came here you said you was from Hong Kong. I just figured you were moving back home is all.

Umm...sorry. You must have me confused with someone else. I never said I was from Hong Kong.

Nope, you absolutely did have "Hong Kong" listed as your location - joking I'm sure - but I don't have time to find it. (Your response caused a bit of a stir around here.)

I see you're selling a Viper GTS, which I've just come to find are really fun cars. I'd been looking for a LONG time and just got a 2000 GTS in Steel Gray with Cognac. For anyone interested, the GTS is a lot of car for the money.

You are correct, sir. I had ShangHai listed as my location. Never said I was from there (or Hong Kong), however.

And it's gone! Off of ebay, listing removed. Good work.
