I bought it from some guy who must have bought it from Auto Bahn USA. He must not of known what he had either. He knew very little about the care other than it was well taken care of by the previous owner. And now I can verify that

Yup I knew what the car was even if the seller didn't! I had been looking for one of these cars for a couple months and I am amazed that they do not hold their value. It's great if you are trying to buy one and you sure take a hit on resale especailly if you bought it new.

I'm sure you already know this. I just have had problems in the past with people misadvertising their prodcts on e-bay and it sucks when you get something totally different than what was advertised. BTW welcome to the forum.
I've had nothing but success on eBay. I've sold two truck and bought this car on the site and so far so good. I believe that if this guy that was selling it truly knew what he had he could have gotten a bit more for it. I had a Carfax report done on it and it checked out. There was actually a buy it now price of $12,995 on the car at one point. But when I hit the reserve price which was $10,500(!), it went away. I was even willng to pay that much for it. So I really did get it for a good price.
