For a clean C4S with 88k on the odo and the upgrades, this is easily a $39-40k car...
+1.

I wasn't planning on sharing this, but last week I was approached by two people on this forum out of the blue, asking if my car was for sale. One of them offered me $40K. For a 110K mile C4S...

I have to admit I was a taken aback. After a short deliberation I declined. There is nothing on the market in this price range I'd rather drive right now.

So $35K is indeed a steal.

No photos and appears to be ~150k miles, but just saw this C4S pop up for $24,9k.

Mgibilisco there are two S models that keep coming up in SC when I search under 300 mi from my zip23229 at a place called tri m motorsport. The silver one that needs a clutch has some sort of a salvage hit on it but the red/tan 4S looks clean and seems like. Good buy with lower miles.

Hmm.. Any insight on why? Maybe both have some shady history?

TRI-M... His website shows the red/tan car as pending.

I called in regards to the silver one(interested for the right price) but never received a call back. I'll try again and update.

The red one has been 'pending' on and off at least twice.

A 76K mile C4S for $23K with "Automatic" transmission in the town next to me Upstate. An interesting fact comes up if you google the VIN...

So of course I emailed the guy while the auction was still on Ebay telling him I live in the next town over and want to see the car. Of course I didn't hear back. A week after the auction ended I got this:

Hi ,

The car is still available is in perfect conditions , clean title . The only payment accepted is Pay Pal .Price is negotiable , we offer 7 days test drive period, full refund if you don't accept the car.No accidents. The price is so good because this cars wasn't sold at the first auction and we have to sell it for a reduced price.
Please decide and act fast because this car may sell to other buyers .

If you are still interested to purchase it please reply with a valid phone number and we will call you.

Thanks

Beautiful English. I'm sure if you were out of state he'd say "shipping is pre-paid, and the car is ready to go"
Scammers! I sold a Ducati a while back and some guy clipped my pics and tried this kind of stunt all over CL in different cities, until someone alerted me.
