Can someone explain how this guy is selling a 2010 RS/SS already? But the sounds of the ad, he is currently driving this car? I didn't think there were any delivered yet?

I smell B.S. You have to watch out for these kinds of transactions!

 

x2 on the BS, Pic posted is from one of the car shows, I got the same pic in my collection...I'd call him out on it, email and ask for pics

 

I don't think he's saying he has it yet.

 

He's saying it has 500km on the odometer.

 

The pics is from the Detroit auto show. "Sold out everywhere"? Really?

 

He's probably going to drive it that much before he gives it up. A bunch of people were selling GT500's and Challengers like this.

Obviously BS...sending email to autotrader to ask them to pull it.

 

The guy is legit. I spent about 30 min. on the phone with him yesterday on this. He may be a liquor importer, but he's also a new car broker who has a relationship with a few local dealers. Coincidentally, he actually used to work at the dealership where I bought my 98 SS! (we swapped a couple of interesting and humorous anecdotes about 1 or 2 of the personnel there!)
In any event, the car is not built yet, but is scheduled for production very shortly. He is anticipating having it within a few weeks.
The asking price of $55,000 is Canadian $ and he freely admits that he is trying to get $5G over MSRP from someone who wants the car "now!"
Not that I necessarily agree with this approach, but it sure wouldn't be the 1st time someone's done this!
BTW, it's a 2SS.

Best regardSS,

sent him an email after I posted yesterday:

"thought these cars were still in factory and not shipped yet...would be
interested in going up there and making an offer, can u provide pics of the
actual car"

got the response today:

"Its getting built next week"

 

ok i stand corrected...still i think he is an opportunist...hope he gets stuck with it (like that's a bad thing) when no one gives him the time of day

 

Exactly! What's the worst that can happen?
... as you say, "getting stuck driving a new SS?"

Heck, if it was me, I'd ask for $10 G's over MSRP... just to make sure that nobody would come forward to buy it - and I'd get stuck drivin' the car!!

Best regardSS,

Elie

 

Some idiot will pay it. That's why we have so much trouble with dealers trying to get "market adjustment".

 

i thought canada wasnt getting the car yet?

 

LOL.. this seller is full of it.. really sold out they haven't start delivering at the dealers yet. Another thing you can see his a scamer or just B.S. is his mentioning thats he putting miles on it. if your selling a car, why would you mention that your putting more miles then what your advertising. wouldn't you want to keep less miles to sell it faster...
