You never know once in a while people do sell off cars for nothing

Be cautious, check it out...see it in person if you can

run the VIN# ask for that first before anything. If the person is serious about selling they shouldnt hesitate to give that out for check

found another nsx for a obviously fake price , decided to email for the hell of it
heres the reply


Hello
My 2001 Acura NSX Targa is in great shape.It is in a good condition, no scratches, and the price is $2900 firm.
The car was owned by my Dad and this car is not needed anymore, I am not much into cars but I know that this is in great shape and in perfect conditions I am only selling it cause I don't need it anymore and also I have to pay some debts so I need serious buyers and a fast deal.I am sorry to inform you but I am currently located in USA(visiting some relatives) but the car its still in Canada located at a shipping company in Terrace town and I can ship it anywhere so that wont be a problem.We will use eBay`s protection program for our safety.I just need your full name and address so I can open a case.
(with no further obligation or fees).
Have a nice day.
Emma

I want to reply but i nee some ideas

Tell him that you're in Blackpool as well on a business trip and you would like to meet him in person. Pick a time and location and wait for his replies then apologize for not making it since an important meeting came up and repeat.

Seriously, it'll be great.

If you already know it's too good to be true... why even bother posting this shit?

Trust your instincts... that will take you further in life than anything you learn on an internet forum.

I'm glad you can understand me. Look I'm located in Blackpool, and I can't come back in Canada to meet you without knowing for sure that you will buy the car, but I have another propose for you. You can send the money $5,500 from your wife's name or your daughter's name under your name so that means your daughter or your wife will be the sender of money and you will be the receiver. BUT you will use my Blackpool address so I can be able to check if the transfer is made. This will assure me that you are an interested buyer and that you won't make me waste my time for nothing. If you agree with this, you will have total access of transfer and no one can pick up your money! Prove me this and I will come to your place to meet you and to give you the car. Then we will register the car under your name. After papers are done and the car is titled under your name, you will change the receiver's name with mine. I'm waiting for your email as soon as possible so we can move forward with this!

Here is my address to use:
address: 97 Adelaide Street, City: Blackpool, Zip code: FY1 4LN, Country: United Kingdom

After the transfer is made you have to send me the scanned receipt received from Western Union stated that you made the payment. When you will make the transfer, tell to the Western Union agent that the receiver of the money is in UK and that you just borrow him the money or something. I am asking you this because when you will change the receiver's name with mine, I will be charged with a 5% fee for using Western Union services for business.

Thanks for understanding!

I found this one for sale now in the Autotrader.... Looks like the same guy, Richard Peters.

I emailed him and I got the same email back:

Thanks for being interested in buying my Red 1995 Acura NSX-T. All power and optional equipment work perfect, the car is in a good condition, no scratches, no damages, never been involved in any accident, no problems on the engine, it runs very well, it has a clear title, a perfect car! The car is Red with Tan leather. My last price is $7,000. You may wonder why I ask this small amount for this car. Well, the truth is that I have only few months to live and want to enjoy the remaining time. As I have no family left, the car will be the gift from me to a stranger. All I want is to find the right person who will love and take care of this car, as I did. The car is not registered in Canada since it was bought from US though to register in Canada but when I found that I have only few months to live I though will be more good to sell it to someone else. Now I'm in United States in my last trip but the car is still in Canada. We will use only eBay Vehicle Purchase Protection to complete this deal. If you are interested and you have the needed money email me back to explain you how you can get this car.

Here is some words about the car and link with pics:
