NP to me! Description sounds legit, or at least legit enough to fool me. I’d buy it tomorrow if I could, pending a clean PPI.

Buy it. I’d be tempted if we didn’t just buy our classic mini.

Seems highly irregular. I fell down the rabbit hole of looking for the dealer... haven’t hit bottom yet.

I suspect that it has a salvage/rebuilt title. Based on options and mileage, that car should be ~$30k.

NP all day long to me. Probably one of those “we don’t have this anymore, but we have a 91 Hyundai Scoupe” things for that price.

Seems like there’s a lot of something going on here. Maybe $10k in dealer fees and service charges theyre hiding in small print? That or everything has a salvage title.

If that’s not a bogus ad, that’s a very nice price. Would gladly pay that with no reluctance.

Add me to the list of people who thought these were constantly $30k or so unless its a salvage title.

Recently stumbled upon something like this. When I emailed the dealer, they said they were “hacked” and the listings weren’t theirs. The next day the site had a completely different inventory. Went from exotics to beaters, sketchy to say the least...

What is that old saying? If it seems too good to be true it probably is.

For a short time I owned both of those!

This ad is super fake. Guarantee you contact them and the car will be in a shopping container and you can send them money to get it. Saw it all the time when I was looking at Elise’s and Evoras. If it seems too good to be true, it is in the case of Lotus.

All their listed inventory is below market value, I’m not even sure any of the stuff I looked at was at wholesale values. If that place exists and those are actual prices, I’ll be making a trip to Florida with a few of my friends.
