Default Looking for a roadster? Possible good deal in Florida

I saw this on Craigslist this morning, and I don't know if it is still available. A red 2005 roadster with 40,000 miles, new top and tires for $13,000. The seller is motivated. At this price, it may be gone already. It is in Palmetto, just south of Tampa/St. Petersburg. I couldn't get the link to post, but you can find it on Craigslist for Sarasota-Bradenton.

So, I guess my "05 with 65K + miles that's not in immaculate condition isn't worth much more than $8,000 if that. Oh well.

I'd go after this if I could, it's the color exterior and interior I'd like but college payments are taking precedence now so I have to be a 1 XFire family.

I'd like to see some better pictures too.

Much of what you see on Craig'slist is a scam.

Just saying...

Strong statement that doesn't measure up....I've used Craigslist for several years to sell a couple of high-end motorcycles, my SuperDuty Ford pickup, Suzuki King Quad, $20K Kuboda tractor, and practically all our possessions when we moved to Florida from Washington State. Scams are easy to see. ie: dirt cheap price for high end merchandise, the "Rolex" inherited from Daddy but has no papers, good deal for $400...I've also bought many items from Craigslist. Never bought anything sight unseen......unlike people do on eBay.......and there's where the scammers abound...

I agree. I suppose that he could have just as easily proclaimed, "Much of what you see anywhere is a scam." There is no reason to cast doubt upon this seller without evidence to support it.

I have bought and sold several items on Craigslist with no problems whatsoever. In the case of this particular Crossfire, it might be best for someone who lives within a reasonable distance to go to see it, drive it, check the CarFax, and have it inspected. They might find that it's a good deal, and they might not. I'm not suggesting that a buyer should buy it sight unseen, wire $13,000 to an account in Nigeria, and pay in advance to have it shipped to Canada.
