Sold my Pontiac Vibe in 1 day! - Toyota Yaris Forums

This is totally crazy.

I posted my Vibe on AutoTrader.com so I could sell it and use the $$$ for a down payment on a new Mustang.

By the time I got home, I had a call from a Russian living in new York that wanted to fly down and buy it! That just screams internet scam, doesn't it?

Well, we worked out the logistics of meeting, and 2 days later he shows up with a big envelope full of $100 bills. Off to the bank we go, they check it all out, 100% legit. $6k goes into my account, and he takes off in my Vibe headed back for Brooklyn.

That is easily the strangest car deal I've ever been involved in.

Ironically, I chose the most expensive AutoTrader ad that runs indefinitely.
