AW 1M for $65k

heads up on autotrader search just listed today:

http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...22093332&Log=0

from the pics it looks like no NAV, seems like $60's are the going rate these days as there is more demand than supply

It's likely a scam, those are Franklin Joseph's pics taken from here (see photo bucket link), I knew I had seen them before:

car listed is in LA, maybe flipping it due to the current market?

Possible, but why not take at least better/new pictures. I recall people giving FJ smack about the door left ajar. LOL

Looks like Derek is trying to flip it and didn't put forth the effort to take new pictures.

Hm, that's the second finding in only a few days of a "seller" using pictures of a 1M he ain't owning:
http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=689037

For all folks out there looking for a second hand 1M deal from unknown folks via the web: not only buyer beware, but foremost beware of scammers !

Make it third. When I had my car listed on ebay someone took all my pictures and exact same description to make an ad on cars.com. I ended up reporting it and it was removed.

it's nice to have sites like this to confirm legit cars. Looks like most 1M owners are on this site

OK guys, every man has its price. Despite my commitments not to sell, I finally decided to sell both my 1M's.

The cars are perfectly fine, no doubt, but my wife keeps nagging to get two Toyota Prius cars. And do know that, in the end, I have nothing to say at home.

Got my VO painted in beautiful Dakar Yellow and added some additional features.

My AW is sporting some Red Bull livery and features an impressive wing on the trunk lid.

Below is a picture taken during my latest trip in the French/Swiss Alps on my way to the Stelvio route with some friends of France and Belgium (those with an eye for details will of course spot the Mont Blanc in the backdrop).

Immaculate condition. Low mileage. Always babied (never exceeded 100mph). Only 69 (sixty-eight and I still owe you one) 1M's made worldwide.

$500K each.

Needless to say that I'm pretty sad to see both gems leave my stable, but want to give them a good home.

Any interest ?

Please note that my smartphone is currently out of order (my wife dropped it 'by accident' in the bathtub after I first disagreed about her Prius swap idea), so don't ask me to send you any additional pictures.

Called the number and the guy claims that I have the wrong number and has no idea what I'm talking about. Could be a practical joke someone has placed on him or he could be a scammer who knows his cover has been blown.
