A 2014 Aston Martin Vanquish with 17,300 miles for $120,000 is spectacular but I can almost believe it. A 2007 DB9 with 16,400 miles for $36,500 is pretty much where the market is leaning. But a 2010 DBS for $62,500 and only 13,500 miles?!! This 2011 Ferrari 458 Italia for $85,000 with nearly 100,000 miles on the...the...huh?!! WAIT, WHAT?!!!

Mileage on the italia, that seems about the right price

I was going to say that, at that mileage, the 458 would be difficult to sell on .... But the Aston? That seems to be a pretty good price for a DBS, provided it doesn’t need a massive service.

I was more surprised with the mileage because I can’t even fathom being able to afford the tires and services to make it that far in that amount of time.

The Ferrari is likely an ex rental car.

Remember when @dougdemuro cautioned against putting a lot of mileage on your Ferrari if you wanted to resell it? If you bought that 458 I think it had better with the idea of it being part of your estate.

It’s not real, I am sure of it. I have seen this more and more lately. Cars are really nicely priced, but somewhat in the realm of feasibility, and they have an actual address and phone number. Google streetview and its some small lot with no real exotics. Call the number and nobody answers. Send them a message through autotrader or cargurus and you get the scam message saying that the car is held by KBB or someone in a sealed container and you have 3 days to inspect it after delivery. They won’t let you see it beforehand because of course it doesnt exist.

Yep, search the VINs. They are recently sold in Nevada. On the Aston DB9 the car “latinocars” listed isnt even the right color. Watch out for this “too good to be true” stuff guys.

This site is fake. They have a 1M with 25,000 priced at $29,000. Psssh, okay...

Rebuilt titles? There’s a dealer hear in Illinois that has really well priced cars but they are all rebuilt.

The catch is that $62k isn’t the price of ownership. It’s a downpayment. Your other installments will be due when the light on the dash goes on and the car shuts off.

I’d be really interested to see what would happen if you went in to their physical store and asked to see one of those exotics, or any car listed on their website with pics/vin stolen off the internet.

Tires and services? Like they say about yachts. If you have to ask the price of gas you can’t afford it.

I imagine this small lot is legit enough and has nothing to do with the scammers posting to cargurus. I saw an Evora that was TGTBT for the price and got the typical craigslist response of being out of the country and blablabla. I really don’t know who falls for this stuff. Most exotic car buyers are pretty thorough in their research.

they’d tell you “we have a great, low miles equinox here for you at only 17.5% interest, no credit no problem!”

I feel like someone interested in a $120,000 car wouldn’t be intersted in anything on their lot. They’re probably not even affiliated with the exotic ads at all, to be honest.

Oh I am sure they aren’t affiliated at all.
