    The dealer must have messed up. Someone buy it before they fix the ad.

    No way.

    But notice that you have to be preapproved to bid. Maybe they're just fishing.

    If I wasn't drooling so much, I'd be able to bid. HAs to be a typo.

    Mmm... anyone lives there??? Would be funny to show up to buy it for $17K...VIN is legit... Maybe someone is playing a prank on the owner. Looks like a residential road near a major road.

    I'll bite. I asked for bidding approval. We'll see what happens.

    Yeah, it's probably a scam- if you go through the seller's feedback, 90% of the stuff he has bought is under 10$, most likely to add positive feedback in order to give the impression of an honest seller. He had like 10 seperate auctions he won for gillette razors! Then, add the foreign email address = scam alert.

    Default 2 different cars

    One car has 1 door, the other has 2, plus they have different wheels. Scam, pre-approved----since when!
