2002 Infiniti Q45 - $3790

The seller could be desperate for money, has major problems with the car and.or SALVAGE title. Another possibility is that it is a scam. There were several cases her in NorCal where a seller advertised in Craigslist, wanted cash-only transaction when contacted, had the deal done in a secluded area and then robbed the buyer at gunpoint.

Is it odd that the same car is for sale here in Sacramento, about 2000 miles away? Scam?

Here's a wreck for $1500/obo. The local salvage yards are probably drooling over this one.

Yes there are many scams on Craigslist, and I flag them when I see them. Some typical tip offs are an unusually low price for a car that looks in perfect condition in the picture, and the license plate is removed, and in the case of southern California, the picture shows the car in front of some kind of verdant green vegetation and trees that doesn't occur in dried up southern California. Another tip off is some guy who always comments about how the car doesn't smell.This ad shows a VIN number, so possibly it might be legit, but as Craigslist says, don't buy any car if it involves shipping, it is a scam.BTW, I notice 2002 Q45s sell way cheaper than 2003 through 2005s, and a reliability study I posted a long time ago showed the 2002 as the only unreliable Q45 of any generation, so might be a good idea to stay away from that year when buying a third generation Q45.

I am thinking so. No way to alert Craigslist, though.

It's a scam. I've been around craigslist long enough to tell that 99% of the time when the buyer lists the car in bullet format and giving the VIN number at the very end, its a scam.

Sometimes it's fun to mess with these guys. E-mail him back with something like: "car want i much how"

And you'll get a full page written report on the vehicle and always has to do with a "death in the family" which is the reason they are selling. I alwasy used to tell them I'll send a police officer up there to get it for me....that usually stops them!

There's a 2003 M45 for $5900 here in Atlanta-deal looks legit, 174K and shiny paint.

[qship96]

At 174,000 miles, all the cheap operating miles are loooonnnnnnggggg gone- $5900 just gets you an old tired car that will need expensive parts to keep on the road!!!1 I bet the transmission replacement alone will be 5K plus!!!

Yes there is. Just click the Spam/overpost link on the top right hand of the screen. If flagged by enough people, it will be removed ... like the link you originally posted has been.

Thanks, I thought I tried that in the Forums, but I was too fresh although I have had an account for several years.
