The seller appears to have good feedback but only has 39 feedback scores so far. That's enough for a trend though. If I were going to bid, I'd ask what he knows about the history of the car? Why is he selling it with 100 miles on the engine? Who rebuilt it and what parts were used? Why did he shoot black paint all over the bottom? The interior has been dressed up with what appears to be armorall and could be rougher than pictured. He doesn't have any up close pics of the paint and even with those it's difficult to discern the quality of the paint job from pictures. I don't think it's a scam, but I think the seller is using common marketing tactics to pretty up the car for sale. At the present price, it looks OK but if it goes much higher I think it would be overpriced. Just my $0.02.
