And they say excellent on everything, but under Transmission, it says "Used".

Get some pics, talk to the owner, run a carfax (for what that's worth), and if you're really interested, see the car and have a PPI done!

The guy sends me an email telling me he's out of the country and would like to use some sort of escrow service.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Now I am not in the market for a new car but doesn't 25K seem really low for a 2002 cab?
2002 Porsche 911 CABRIOLET - $25000

Seems very low. Get some pics, talk to the owner, run a carfax (for what that's worth), and if you're really interested, see the car and have a PPI done! Sounds like there's got to be a catch.
I just came across that posting and it caught my eye. There is a URL on that page that leads to more pictures and they all look very good but there must be a catch in there somewhere. Here is that link

Two things that threw red flags right away. Warranty "AS-IS" in all caps. When someone types in all caps it means they are shouting it, even sub-consciously. And they say excellent on everything, but under Transmission, it says "Used". Huhhhh? Obviously, I'd sort that out.
25,000 - something is up...way up.
Be careful on Craigslist! Since it doesn't cost anything to post, you'll get anything posted. When I looked for a car for my son, I found:
A 2004 BMW mini for $4000. E-mailed the guy, but never heard anything.
-A Camry for $3500 listed as body "good", interior "fair". The passenger side door had no mirror and was spray painted black. The interior was ripped to shreds.
-Another Camry listed as emaculate and the driver's side front quarter panel was wrecked
- Looked at a 626 that the owner said he almost sold the week before, but the interested party "required a title" WTF!!
However, did end up buying the 626 as we helped the guy find his title (don't ask...)
All I'm saying is be very careful.
I agree on Craigslist. I inquired about a seemingly cheap 996TT ($20k to be exact). The guy sends me an email telling me he's out of the country and would like to use some sort of escrow service. He did say that the car is in LA but won't let me see the car. Buyer beware!
It has to be a scam! check out his other listings. Looks like he has another 25 or so listings, all w/ very low starting prices. An 01 TT for 25k? And no history or feedback.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
