if you want, make arrangments with the guy for me to check it out saturday and i will drive over there for you. I would say earlier but it will be dark when i get there.

PM me for my cell

Is it an NSX?

You have posted this request on the Supra and GTO forums as well.

If this is the car, the low price should be making you see red flags waving.....

They are also selling a 2009 GTR with low mileage for 20-30k below value.

They are not passing my sniff test........

Yup, I noticed that too. And the stickers on the windshield are not NY inspection/registration stickers.

Also, 816 Belmont Avenue shows up on a block with apartment buildings and multi-family homes.

And check out their website:

http://dagosto.autodealerspoint.com/items/search/Feature/3

They list two yellow 2005 Vipers, different prices, different stock numbers BUT the photos used for both are of the same car.

They also list 3 stories under "Happy Customers". All were added on 10/10/10. Don't know where the first two pics were taken but there were not taken in Brooklyn.

I grew up in Brooklyn and Arista is right on the money. There isn't a home like that anywhere to be found. It could be part of a "popular" scam in NY and on LI that these guys post these cars, know the buyers are going to show up with a couple of hundred bucks or even a few thousand to put a deposit on the car. Then rob you at gunpoint for the deposit money. Then they're on to the next one...I've got a buddy on Suffolk County PD and he says its done constantly on CL and Ebay...they're branching out to Autotrader
