If anyone is trying to buy an XKR Convertible this deal is the best deal out here. I noticed it browsing thought I might share it with the forum.

look at that brake dust poor car ...high miles for an 09 but as you said priced right!

 

Price is amazing.

 

Don't get too excited...vin doesn't check out...plus location...newark,nj...could be scam...

 

Apparently carfax has a record of the VIN

 

Its legit the VIN# checks on Carfax.com and Autocheck.com

 

The seller has zero feedback. Not a good sign......

 

Just bc the seller has 0 feedback that doesnt mean a thing. Theres car dealers on ebay with 0 feedback as well. If your going to buy a car online you go check it out first before you hand over money.

 

Sold from Bergen Jaguar in Paramus NJ. Probably a repo car that went through the auction. Once the economy started tanking we were seeing a boatload of repo's going through the auctions. They brought them to the dealers for recall work and/or to get keys programmed. Cool car. Good deal, I imagine.

 

This is a private seller not a dealer. From autocheck everything appears to be clean.

 

I visited the dealer today and met his salesmen:




Too many red flags for me.
1. Price - if it seems too good to be true...
2. Seller has zero feedback
3. Big gap in AutoCheck report from 677 miles on 4/30/2009 to present.

My $0.02: Reports from AutoCheck or CarFax report are worthless and anyone who relies on them is a fool. Read the T&Cs:
Welcome to AutoCheck

Buyer Beware!

 

And the big red flag for those of you not familiar with NJ....Newark...aka stolen car capital of the world...lol

 

I was born in Newark (really!) and know that it takes a very special person to live in New Jersey today. Do you have what it takes?

See this link for the Application to Live in New Jersey:

Cashiers check or money order as only forms of payment...

 

This thread seems interesting

 

Ha, at least the car has stayed in NJ!

 

Hey!! I have lived in NJ all my life and I travel the US for business and I would much rather live here. The states that have the most problems are those states that have all the flooding.

 

I see that you live in Toms River (in scenic Monmouth County), which is a far cry from Newark. You're right - NJ has lots of really nice places to live (if you can afford them), as well as great restaurants and things to do - beaches, mountains, NYC, etc. But NJ also leads the nation in following areas: highest cost of living, highest taxes, highest cost of auto insurance.

Here's a really interesting website about NJ: Stupid Facts - New Jersey

 

Actually Tom's River is in Ocean County. NJ is a great place to live until you have to retire and can't afford it anymore.

 

You guys listen to much of the crap. I would rather live here then anywhere else.
