Default 2001 white/tan auto convertible $18000

I saw this on chaigslist Philly area. If it was a 6spd manual I would go look at it. Looks to be a great deal.
Hope someone here gets a great deal.

Here"s the e-mail response I got:

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in my car. I decided that the price for it is $18,000. With 34808 miles the car is in perfect working condition, no accidents of what so ever, no scratches, no dings, clean title. It starts and runs great! I can ship it at my expense through Transit Cargos (www.transitcargos.com). Transit Cargos is an escrow-type shipping company. Here's how it works: The car is in U.S at the Transit Cargos ready to be shipped. They made an inspection and after I will send them your full information they will send you a invoice via e-mail. After you verify the invoice from their website and make sure that the car is really coming to your address, you will have to make the payment on their account. They will keep the money in a trust account until you receive the car. After you have received the car, you will have 7 days to inspect and test drive it, maybe even take it to a local dealer to check it out, with no obligation to buy. If you decide to keep the car, you will have to contact the agent and tell him to release the money to me. If something proves to be wrong with the vehicle, you can send it back at my expense and get a full refund of your money the same day. As you can se, we are both safe. I know that you are serious about buying and you do have the money, and you can be sure that you are not losing your money or getting a damaged or other vehicle. Let me know if you are interested and send me your full name and full address to start the deal.

Best regards.

The only photos on his photobucket site were his car pics. I was thinking his own image might be on there. I wish I knew where this guy was located.
