Inflation - 88 XR7 for sale

This is ridiculous. The first time I saw this on Craigslist it was listed at $2750.

Read these nex two ads and notice the date and price:

I called the guy yesterday when I saw the price went down and he said it was sold. Edit - He said he put it in storage and it has 75K miles on it.

Then I saw this today...

The funny part is his reason for the price.

I contacted him to ask about where the car was from and he said he bought it off the street and didn't know.

Edit - I could've sworn this was the same car, considering location, when it sold and was put up for sale again and the fact that they both have a red pin strip on the door and bumper molding (I've never seen this, let alone on two identical cars that happen to be in the same state). Also one has 56K miles and the previous one has 75K miles.

Sorry for the alarm.
