Back then an E30 M3 was worth some money, but this dude had easley four times the money into the car than it was worth. It would be nice to have that much money and this guy selling you this car might be one of them. I will be suprised if it works out and I can eat my words on a web cam.

Dude, haven't you figured it out yet. This whole thread is a joke. The guy knew it was a scam from the get go. That's why he said at the bottom, I ****ing hate these people.

this is true, more people fall for this scam in the US than anywhere else. No way I would wire money to anyone overseas. Remember its all civil and the laws in the US do not apply once you start dealing with someone overseas. Good luck and hope its not a scam.

this is kind of like the email from russia where a hit man contacts you to pay him off for an audio recording of the hit contract meeting and then he demands more money so he doesn't kill you... except its an STI.

Jose-

My address is 1060 W.Addison Street, Chicago, IL 60613.

You did not answer my question about the options- what does this car have?

If you are absolutely interested to purchase it, please provide me your full name and shipping address so I can register the deal with eBay.


Thanks,
