As a follow up: The 1990 928 S4 is more like a $25,000 car. I looked
around on fleaBay and the full tubes of teh Internets.
Incidentally, my email got to the guy. He replied. Big surprise that
the car is not here (even though it was posted on Seattle CL), but in
Coppell, Texas (Dallas-Ft Worth). It also oddly has Michigan plates on
it, but anything is possible. It gets better here: He says that the
$6k includes ****pping and everything (wow!) and all I need to do is give
him my ****pping information so he can set up the money transfer with
Worldpay. Classic scam bits. I should string him along.
I wonder if he reads Usenet.
Hey Guru! Don't you live in Texas? How far are you from Coppell? I
really don't think it exists, but I'd like to have the option in my hip
pocket. I probably could get someone from the ****sche club to do it if
it were a reality.
A 90 S4 for $6k ****pped! Fun stuff.
