Run Forrest!!! RUN!!!
If I were to even consider this (and I bought mine from a dealer back east sight unseen), I would want to see in a contract that my lawyer says is solid this "we will buy it back and have the refund to you in three days clause".
Looks fishy to me.... but you never know. Someone might have put a huge chunk of $$ down and their situation changed and they couldn't pay. Most banks send the stuff to auctions around here (Arizona) and I would assume that is the case in most places but you never know.. and that is the rub...
Tempting.. but I feel like a fish looking at a big juicy worm!!

Let's vote.....how many of you think that the "3 day inspection period to accept the car" and "we will pick up the car and refund your money in full" are based in reality.
Now, it might be worth it to do a little research on 2008 Vettes for sale in New Mexico if you are really interested in the car....bet you could find it, if its real!

apparently i cant go look at the car...i'll swing by anyway...heres what the chat lady said:
Sandra Dawson: Hello, how may I help you?
luis: hi at what time do you close?
luis: ?
Sandra Dawson: Please be more specific.
luis: the store on 8th street. at what time does it close?
luis: im from miami. i want to swing by and take a look at a car you have there
luis: a 2008 blue convertible corvette
luis: with around 3 thousand miles...sale price for around $25k
Sandra Dawson: We win vehicles at auctions all over the country. The cars have been taken over by the government or by financial institutions or banks from people with financial woes and cannot pay for the loans that they made.
Local pick-up is not available. Most of the vehicles are stored at the parking lots of banks and financial institutions. They don't have showrooms or specialized people in order to offer this service. They are pressing us to take the car from there as soon as possible. In order to avoid unnecessary shipping costs, we prefer to find a buyer and deliver the car directly to his address.
You will be able to inspect the car at you home and if you decide not to keep it, we are going to refund your payment and take the car back free of charge.
luis: so i cant physically go look at the car at that store?
Sandra Dawson: No, sorry Luis.
luis: ok
luis: thanks!!
Sandra Dawson: You are welcome.

They're ripping off photos from legit dealers to use as their own. See example below...
LEGIT > 2009 Mini @ Passport Motors $25,900
SCAM > 2009 Mini @ Kiki Motors $11,588

Scam, big time...!!
Come on guys, don't let your dreams get to you. This thing has every basic scam angle blasting you right in the face:
#1, up front money, sight unseen. Yea sure, and you would get your money back HOW! Pigs can fly you know! I do not care what kind of a contract you/they sign, once that have your money, they are gone, gone, gone..like the wind!!!
They will spend $1200 to $1500 to ship the car in an enclosed carrier to you so you can look it over. Bullsh*t.....would you like to buy a bridge also., cheap.??!!
They have no warehouse or store, or what???? You have to be the dumbest jerk on earth to think that would be a legit business. Crap, most every state licenses car dealers, so how could these jerks even hope to qualify...!!! Maybe in Nigeria.....
And the conversation, sounded scripted from the supposed sellers end.
Wake up guys, this is no where near real.....sheesh!!!

I'm gonna agree here. Now that we know there is no "showroom" and they will not let you see the car before you buy it, def a scam. My buddy was gonna go touch the car and pay them for it if it actually existed. Too good to be true because it ain't true!
