There was something similar to this floating around Yahoo last spring. For a mere 3K the car would be shipped to you, drive it for 30 days and if you liked it send the additional 7k. Yes, 10 K for a low mileage in perfect condition 2002. Same sob story-In Europe, needed the $$$ real bad, nope cant come look at it, send your info and it will be shipped through a place through an excorow. You get the pic!

That seems very strange. No way that car is only worth $9000 unless there are some very serious problems.
