Default Is this a scam or legit? craigslist ad

https://springfieldil.craigslist.org...582956210.html

The car seems to good to be true..a ws6 under 50k miles for 9 grand? The company that is selling it has a 2.5 star rating. I don't know what to do. Should I give it a shot and maybe waste my time or get screwed or pass on this.
Thanks

I would just stick to the classifieds on here. Best bet is to wait back and have patience. Something will come your way.

This same ad is on the sacramento craigslist. If you go on to their website you can see they just want your info so you can get "pre-approved" so its just a phishing scam. Don't send them anything.

Most likely a scam to try and get down money from people. All kinds of crap out there today. You can't go by ratings either, I got ripped off once because they used another companies name to represent themselves.

Lol, what makes me laugh is, they are using someone's car to do that, wonder who's it is?
