Thats a lot of info thanks. The sell is currently out of the U.S. and I wanted to make sure the car legit. But I have my doubt about the deal. I found it at the AutoTrader website. Here is the reply I got from the seller. Its kind of long. But after whats she asking me to do I know its a fruad deal.
First thank you for your email regarding my car.
The car is in a perfect condition, the milage is accurate, no scratches, no damages, no hidden defects.Kept it in a warm garage. My boyfriend is devastated that we have to sell it but we have to pay too much money for register it here,so we decide to sell it. My company have relations in States and I worked there for 2 years. I has the oportunity to buyit from there and bring it with me when I come back.The car was buyed from US, so it is US standards,so stay cool itīs perfect compatibile to your standards and you will donīt have to pay more duty taxes on it. And this is an impediment for me to sell it here caus,first, we have a different standards and second will be very expensive for me to register it here.I have to pay an very expensive duty taxes.The price for this car is $8,000.00 USD.The car it is still register in States.What other info would you like on it? It will be shipped from London,United Kingdom and i will pay the shipping and insurance charges.I will do the arrangements for shipping from here.The original receipt and all remainded warranty information packet with enrollment number is included for you. If necessary ever I will assist you in getting warranty help; most people just dump it on you with a useless warranty.
The payment will be done via secure pay which means that the third party will keep the money until you receive and inspect the car. You have 10 days to inspect the car.I will wait for your email to let me know if you are interested in knowing more details about the purchase.
Best Regards
Rebecca

Yea, sounds kinda hairy to me. It might be totally legit but I don't know. Buying something outta the states would scare me above anything else. Whatever you decide good luck and no prob on the Carfax.
