    They seem to have some almost too god to be true deals here on several cars.. F430 for 76k, California for 92k, Gallardo for 62k, R8 for 62k?...I don't know, something seems fishy even though the site seems real. All the car pics were taken in different locations, etc. Can anyone vouch for this place?

    I'm skeptical even without considering the asking prices. You have to submit a phone number or e-mail address just to get the VIN on any of the cars, and none of the cars are photographed in the same location - the photos look like the kind you'd see on Facebook after an enthusiast happened upon the car in public.

    No way it's legit. Beyond the obvious, look at their own link for location on Goofle Maps and click Street View.

    I did a google search by image on their $58k Z06, and 2 pages of BS car sites came up..so I'm gonna go for a "no" on this one.

    Maybe it changed? When I went tot he site it was a low end cash car type lot with disposable automotive appliances on their last legs mostly over 100k miles and under $5k.

    Yes, it absolutely changed...that was weird. The fake site was somewhat elaborate for a scam site. Not even the same theme now.
