Ok seriously that was super weak. If you do a reverse lookup on the number it's a land line in Nashville. Doesn't give any additional information. Other sites will but I'm not interested enough to pay $10 to find out

yah...I'm sorry, I just made up the address. If you look at the street name, you'll notice it's PaHeO, as in Pho Ave.

Actually, I just used this site, http://www.fonefinder.net and it gave me a Tennessee cell phone number. POWERTEL, INC. seems to be his provider so go get him!

a friend of mine bought a spa yellow s2k, the pics taken on ebay were when he got it new when he recived it car had dents and scratches everywhere and to clean it up was 10G exterior and interior, theere was no insurance on the item and my friend was crying. dont trust cheap s2ks on ebay even though carfax says its good its BULLSHIET!!!!

inspect the car physically and dont count on pictures and words alone they dont mean anything

There were a few S2000's broken into in dealerships around the area, we reported this auction to the dealerships as well.

that name sounds familiar to me...different address, but same name

I think that this guy (or someone of an identical name is already on this board). he tried to buy a car from me and have it shipped to Canada...sounded too fishy to me so I backed out.

Maybe a totally different person, but that name doesn't look too common like "Joe Smith"

Just my .02
