I would not discount the car because a dealer is selling it, anymore
than I would not wanna go to a certain shoe store because they sell
shoes! What I absolutely would want to do is be in the area of
Florida, *OR* have the luxury of time to allow for travel, and go and
see, feel & touch the car, as though I was Sherlock Holmes!! Not
because of the price, but simply on the fact the the car is 17 years
old, and alot can (and sadly does) happen in that time frame! My
interest would be wet, by the beautiful apparant condition of the
thing, but THAT is simply not enough to bid on it for. I don't like
the fact that he is hiding the VIN!! THAT looks bad. There is
SOMETHING on car-fax that the seller does not want the bidders to
see! RED FLARES !!
