        My car's on ebay!

        http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ayphotohosting

        The side shot is a pic I posted a few months ago. I don't suppose this is any one of you guys selling his car? Actually I'm flattered that he chose my picture - looks like he has the exact same setup. It's a shame he's selling - hope he get's a better price for the wheels!

        Might be a scam. Scammers often "borrow" photos and claim them to be the car they are selling.

        Looks like somebody from my hometown is interested in the wheels. I've only seen two Beasts here in Calgary and I haven't talked to either of the owners.

        It's not like I'm a lonely M5 owner or anything like that, but I would be interested in knowing of any other people in Calgary who might be on the Board.

        Yeah, like this thread is going to get their attention.

        Anyhow, I digress.........

        Wolverine I saw that ad on ebay and noticed that it looked similar to a car I saw on this forum. I have a weird feeling this is a scam. I emailed the seller about the pic and the wheels, and he hasn't replied. We'll see what happens!!

        Look at the payment terms:
        "As long as you prepay the shipping and full cost of the wheels first via bank wire or certified funds".

        And then wait for the wheels to arrive....... sure!

        Very flattering, but I'd be a bit upset that someone was trying to pass of my car as their own (even if he does own one).

        Yeah, I talked to him on the phone inquiring about the wheels. After talking to him, something just seemed odd. He actually posted some info on this board under the F/S section regarding the wheels, exhaust, etc....
