Welcome to i-club. There are a lot of really cool and nice people here. There is a small amount of people that just like to throw out random lame and unhelpful comments - sorta like gradeschool... That's what the "ignore" feature is for. If you think about it, it's your money and if you are happy - nuttin else matters!

Cheers and enjoy your car!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. This has been the coolest forum I have been apart of so far hands down.

I bought my tickets to Hammy yesterday so if I don't meet you before at a local meet I would definetly like to say hello at Hammy.

Hello there,

Thank you for your interest for my car. I want you to know that I closed my auction earlier because someone has offered me the total price, but didn't have all the money available and I cannot accept financing because time is a real issue for me.
The price I want to obtain for it is $13,800 (this price includes shipment and insurance charges).
It is an US model (which complies with the US emission standards: DOT and EPA) The car is like new, completely working, perfect running condition, with no hidden damages or accidents,it has always been
garage kept, low miles. It is US model with US specs and passed the US test emissions. It will be as if purchased locally.The car is insured in case of damage and you will receive it at your door in 5 working days. It will come with all the necessary papers (clear title, bill of sale, warranty documents, user's manual, insurance etc).
The title is clear and you will register it in your state without problems.
I am requesting a $3,800 refundable deposit at the begining of the shipping and the balance to be paid after delivery and inspection. If you are
not 100% content with the car you will ship it back on my expense to get your deposit back. I am sure this will not happen, because it is a state of the art vehicle and you will have no reason not to be content with it.
This is a large purchase and I would like to use a Vehicle Purchase Protection for this transaction as I want a smooth and safe transaction.First you will pay the downpayment to Vehicle Purchase Protection and the reminder you can send it directly to me or through Vehicle Purchase Protection also. Please note that Vehicle Purchase Protection will hold your deposit of $3,800 until you will
confirm that you received the car and you transfered the title into your name.
If you agree with these terms, please send me your full name, home and shipping address,so I can register the transaction with Vehicle Purchase Protection asap.

...waiting for your fast answer,

Thank you

It's a hoax. I tried this once with a guy on ebay. It sounds legit but he will ask you to use a wire transfer to the company which is not secure. When he sends you the company names go to there website and search through there site and you will find out that the way he wants you to do that is not secure and you will lose your money

That is totally New Mexico for you. If your rich it's sick, if you normal it barely runs.
