yeah seems about 4 times less than it should. Maybe it only comes with the exterior. motor and trans not included.
Or maybe thats for only the Supercharger. Its gotta be a scam. It says "click here" I'm afraid to click it!

Of course its a scam! If I don't see a phone #, I usually flag it. In this case, I did.

Also wonder where they stole the photos.

flagged for no #? I hate getting 30 calls from billshutters and 50 texts asking for pix, so I filter goofs with email. as for stupid cheap, I clicked and then emailed the guy, he probably missed a zer0

Let's call her bluff (and contact the Alaska state attourney general), I've got friends in Alaska (those parts that actually have ROADS! ) who'll be glad to 'stop in' to look at the car. (I'll see if I can get 'her' to respond to a few emails and see if they're from the same location.)

When I see crap posted like this (which is almost daily), I always get the state involved. Most of the time the states lack the resources to track internet fraud

(and NO, I DON'T want to give 'Big Brother" ANY MORE 'control' over ANYTHING - so 'we the people' need to be aware of this crap. I know, 'personal responsibility' is not something that a lot of people understand or have any experience with... but we have to start somewhere.)

(Flame 'off'... for now...)
