Damn. I wanted to buy another NSX for less than $9000 too... :( :( :(

It is still available. I sent a message thru ebay and just recieved this from the seller. You better act fast, as it really sounds to good to be true, really.

Hello there,

Thank you for your interest in my car. I want you to know that I closed my
auction earlier because someone has offered me the buy it now price, but
didn't have all the money available and I cannot accept financing because
time is a real issue for me. The price I want to obtain for it is $8,600US
(this price includes shippment and insurance charges).

We recently opened a small business in France and we moved here. We found
out that we cannot register the car here, because it is an US model and
Europe regulations are different from the North America ones. Also we didn't
pay yet the duties for bringing it here and if we sell it back to US/Canada
there will be no more duties to be paid. Now we have our money stucked with
this vehicle, so the low price is for a fast cash deal.

The car is like new, completely working, 89600 miles, 1993 model. It has
always been garage kept. It is an US model with US specs and passed the US
test emissions. It will be shipped via air freigth with Lufthansa Air Cargo
to the nearest international airport from your area and from there with
ground freigth to your door.

The title is clear and clean and you will register it in your state. I will
send the car as a gift or donation for you, so you won't have to pay any
additional taxes. It will come with all the papers (warranty, insurance etc.
...).

The shipping costs and the insurance taxes of the package will be down to me
and you will pay the fees for transferring the money (about 4% of the total
amount).

I am requesting a $4,000 refundable deposit prior shipping and the balance
to be paid after delivery and inspection. If you are not 100% content with
the car, you will ship it back on my expense to get your deposit back. I am
sure this will not happen, because it is a state of the art vehicle and you
will have no reason to reject it.

This is a large purchase and I would like to use a third party for this
transaction as I want a smooth and safe transaction. We will use Square
Trade, I have completed a lot of successful deals using them. I have a
purchase protection account of $10,000 with them. If this is your first time
using Square Trade here are their terms: if you will not receive the car
exactly as advertised or you won't receive it in 15 days since you made the
deposit, Square Trade will refund you from my Square Trade account.

If you agree with these terms, please send me your full name, home and
shipping address so I can register the transaction with Square Trade asap.

Regards,
Rod.
 
My apologies in advance to anyone who is offended by this, but EVERY SINGLE SCAM on eBay is by a foreigner with the absolute single worst english translation skills ever. I don't care what anyone says, but if you are dumb enough to send money to a stranger with awful grammatical skills (regardless of what language they speak), you deserve what you get. I get 2-3 phishing emails a day for everything from bank card accounts to ebay accounts to paypal accounts, and not a single one of them has correct grammar. If you don't think a multibillion dollar financial institution has the sense to hire a grammatically correct emailer to compose template emails, then go ahead and log into your bank account through one of those emails.

That's what I was thinking, too.
 
The universe is a strange place sometimes....especially in the world of used cars. :D
 
just sent me this...SCAMMMER:

Hello there,

Thank you for your interest in my car. I want you to know that I have closed
my auction earlier because someone has offered me the buy it now price, but
didn't have all the money available and I cannot accept financing because
time is a real issue for me. The price I want to obtain for it is $8,600US
(this price includes shipment and insurance charges).

My wife was recently promoted so we had to move in France. We brought the
car with us, wanting to register it here, but I couldn't because it is a US
vehicle and to get it registered here it will need serious engine
modifications in order to comply with the EU emission standards. So that is
why I prefer to sell it quick now and get rid of it while I still can,
because time is running and I can't keep it like that, there is a deadline
term when I must pay the import tax, so I can't afford to lose time and I
prefer to make some money while I still can.

The car is like new, completely working,89600 miles, 1993 model. It is US
model with US specs and passed the US test emissions. The car is insured in
case of damage and you will receive it in 8-9 working days by Lufthansa at
your home address. The title is clear and you will register it in your state
without problems. I will send the car having written on it 'gift' so you
won't have to pay any additional taxes. It will come with all the papers
(warranty, insurance etc. ...).

The shipping costs and the insurance taxes of the package will be down to me
and you only pay for the money transfer commission when you wire the funds,
which is about 4% from the total amount sent.

I am requesting a $4,000 US refundable deposit prior shipping and the
balance to be paid after delivery and inspection. If you are not 100%
content with the car, you will ship it back on my expense to get your
deposit back. I am sure this will not happen, because it is a state of the
art vehicle and you will have no reason not to be content with it.

If you agree with these terms, please send me your full name, home and
shipping address and your ebay id so I can register the transaction with
Square Trade asap.

Regards,
Matt
