4.8is at $7200... too good to be true?

I know prices are going down, but if this is the market in Florida, I will start looking in that area.

2005 bmw x5 4.8is sport - this x5 4.8is awd is in excellent condition inside and out

Yes the market did "crash" but its in the 2x,xxx range

Now this... I'd call just for a laugh and watch how sad his story is..

IIRC: Isn't the pictured car's owner a member? I know someone has that wheel combo here.

As for the scam.
I must say he/she actually put -some- effort into it, all he/she needs is a fake vin (a 4.8is one ofcourse), but at the end of the day, that price is in no way legit.

Walk Away.

Very common for craigslist cars posted at $7,500 that are worth $20k+. It is kinda nice, it makes it that much easier to spot the scam ads and skip over to the next one.

$7200 without the engine. Add approx. another $20,000 if you want it.

If you have time, give them a call just for the fun of it. I think, we all would like to know what are the latest scam tactics being used.

I don't have his address. Do you?

We also have that kind of scams here in Canada, like this one...
2005 BMW X5

But seriously, I see many 4.8is posted at $19K-20K, very interresting...
