I saw that a couple months ago for $35K and googled the VIN and found pictures of it with a lot of front end damage at auction on the east coast. I contacted the dealer and said "Nice!" and gave them that link, lol.
He owes me a Lexus IS-F or my money back. He used to post on this forum too under the name aznrukus.
I've known him for over 5 years and I am friends with his cousin so I trusted he was a legit business person with a dealer license.
He was supposed to fly to LA and buy the car already and have it delivered to me in the Seattle area.
I wired him the money a month ago, he's been in LA for over 2 weeks and I keep getting the run around.
Anybody else a victim of his shady practices?
Being a "friend" I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt to make this right. He did sign a contract and gave me an invoice and bill of sale so I have that.
money or material things should never be placed between friends unless you can consider it lost. people will fuck you over due to their stupidity and/or greed. we live life for ourselves, not for each other - we haven't evolved to that stage yet. but don't take shit from anybody, don't listen to that "eye for an eye..." crap, show him what rukus means
He sent me supposed pics of the car. Looks like a Canadian spec but is supposedly in LA. Does anybody recognize this showroom? I have a feeling he had one of his goons in BC go to a dealer and snap these pics.
On topic: I noticed the exit sign in States are generally in "Green"... "Red" is used in Canada... I never been to any other states other than washington in recent years so i could be wrong
His so called shop is in a sketchy East Van area too...
Intake / Exhaust Work

Header install $45 and up Cold air intake install for RSX $150 <-- Wut?
Electronics
Hondata install $75
Apexi install (VAFC, RevSpeed, etc) $55 Defi Gauge install $100 and up <-- How is this more expensive than installing a AFC/RSM? It's just as easy.

this guy is a scammer. I "knew" him personally. That shop is not even his, its somebody elses shop that he used to hang around claiming he runs it.
That picture posted was from 2 years ago, they have since moved out and cut ties with anthony cause he scmmed them out of money also.
I've heard of him scamming anything from $10 to $3000, but this is just fucked up....
i seriously don't know how this dude is still going.
He does not have a buisness licence or any of that shit, it's all lies to lure you in.
Hopefully you track him down. Posted via RS Mobile

really?? i think it looks pretty sweet :/ (guess im biased cuz of the celica lights)
on a serious note though i hope you have your payment etc documented to him, i know you said you have a contract signed up
you should take him to court immediately it wouldn't affect the outcome because the suit can be canceled if you have delivery
but it can be a painstakingly long process; it isn't always but just so you know.
it makes far more sense and would hurt a lot more than say beating him up (especially if you get a lien on him etc ruin his credit yada yada he would be screwed for a loooong time)
