Don't really know if it is a good deal or not, but I have always liked the way they looked compared to other SUVs.

Yes, it is fake. If you Google search the image, it shows up on a handful of random Internet websites.

We lambast flippers all the time on here... but just cuz he works at a dealer it's somehow less scummy? If anything I'd say it's worse to use a competitive advantage and withhold knowledge from a customer to gain an upper hand and profit off them, but hey, you do you. | You are basing this on the assumption the previous owner wants weirdo's showing up at there house. Lot's of people don't care to sell stuff privately and even if they get substantially less than what they know they could make selling themselves prefer the convenience.

I'd say it's not very likely that a GT350 owner in Vancouver drove it down to Cali for Rob Gluckman (ABC7 camera operator & aerial photographer from Encino California) to take pics of his car.
- There is a Rob Gluckman Photography watermark on the last photo
- the skyline behind the docks doesn't look like Vancouver
- no pics with a BC license plate showing
I'd give it a 99.99% chance it's fake.

I’ve sold a lot of cars over the years on Craigslist and I’ve seen peope do it to my ads, get someone scheduled to come and look at my car and then suddenly there are a couple of similar ones on CL with lower prices and the buyer shows up and in one case even has those ads printed out to show me my price is too high and my simple response each time is just to say “Go buy that one then” or to point out how that ad isn’t even real. The shit people try... unreal.
Is this capitalism in its purest form? Hah.
