What do you mean by info? Does anyone know the car or seller directly? Cuz all I could tell you from the pics is that the passenger side mat is backwards, lol.

Honda Odyssey Oil change receipt ftw.

Look at the language:

When i purchase this car, there was only couple of white 350z with nismo package in Southern California.
It was hard to find white nismo 350z.
It is really well maintained.. and i really took care of it.


Seller has zero feedback. Its a scam.

Consider another car.
Funny oil receipt - sure, but even more comical that they decided to take their for sale pictures in some random strip mall parking lot. "Oh, this is a great place to take pictures to sell my $25,000 car!"

To be a nice guy, I talked to an Ebay representative and he passed it on to the fraud department. Or so he said.

1st, never buy something for more than 10x the cost of the number of positive ratings they have. These have 0 feedback, so I wouldn't send them 1 penny. You should call up the phone number and see if you can find any more info about the car.

Even more interesting - that license plate frame gave some more info. The phone number does jibe with a company called Grand Motors, which seems like a legit place. That is, until you try and go to their website. Do so with caution: www.grandmotors.com

ive been watching this same car on ebay for a week one. not going to buy it though, dont worry, im looking for red. But what i noticed which was funny was why the guy decided to do his photoshoot while it was parked regularly. I analyze everything so to me it showed the seller was too lazy.
