I think you can get a title for it from a RMV, but Im not sure I would trust this action unless you do business in person.

Where is your friend and where is this car?? If it is real then it is a good deal but again I would go there with a truck and tow the car away and pay cash in person. I mean I think at the very least running the VINs is a good idea to find if its stolen and then contact a RMV with the VIN tell them the story and see what they can do. It may need to be issuedd a rebuilt car title and inspected but if its not a stolen car and the VIN#s come back normal then look into it

something doesnt seem...kosher about it. i mean. Why would a car sit in a garage for 10 years? why are the floors so dirty after only 3k? why exactly is a wire eroded? wtf is up with that exhaust manifold cover???

i dont know about it. I would say, either see it in person and inspect it, or forget it.

it also looks as if the rear bumper on the bottom right side, may have been photoshopped.....

Look at the seats, pedals, gear **** they do not look worn The valve cover is spotless... i say its consistant ... there is dirt... it could be because it was someones beater. The manifold cover is wet thats why its like that. I dont think any wire has eroded ... i dont think he knows all that much about it. Maybe the person died... or something like that... and nobody knew about it... who knows. I have asked him all these questions. How does it look photoshoped?

Another reason why i think its genuine... look how everythin is layed out. Even the spark wires look like they have never been touched.

I agree....looks like the bumper may have been the victim of a smudge tool or something....Just run it by the DMV first...check the VIN...good deal I would say..but like Jeff said....I would have to inspect it first being that I am not too trustworthy after a fiasco with my '97 Trans Am.
