Here's an archive of the listing in case that one gets deleted.

This auction may be legitimate but a few things bother me about it and so far it's fitting the profile of some of the previous fraudulent listings. I'm still waiting to get a response back from whoever listed the car. This MR2 has been listed fraudulently in the past as well. This particular MR2 used to be in Atlanta approximately two years ago and I know the previous owners personally. The images used in this auction are ones taken by my friend two years ago (he still owns the suburban in the background of a few of the pictures). The listing user has zero feedback but the listing itself looks professionally made. I emailed the user and will know for sure once they respond because the scam always involves "the car being overseas but they will ship at their expense blah, blah, blah". As always, buyer beware.
