They could also be plating the car with minimal insurance after it sitting uninsured for a while, so it may have been stored for a while too.

I'm not saying all of them are bad but it makes me worry comparing to others that had the car for a longer period of time. |
i wonder about that too sometimes... see very fresh plates on cars from craigslist all the time.

^ You flip cars for a living! Only difference is you don't have to plate them and have a big lot for people to come to  |

2008 Saab 9-3 Aero Sportcombi wagon, $5000. Has the 2.8 V6 turbo 255 hp engine, paddle shift, and xenons.
A bit on the high kms side at 251K, spent some time in Halifax (rustproofed), but seems like it is well maintained.
For this asking price, helluva full featured wagon! https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6015431363.html

06 FX35, 12,388kms $15g obo
Says it hasn't been driven for 2 years. Doesn't look like a fake ad either with the old insurance stickers on the plate and the vin but who knows... Appears to be parked in some sort of a storage lot? 120k ones are going for around this price, if that mileage is real this is a steal https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6016784459.html | |

^^ that milage is crazy if it's real. Got to be a story there.
My brother just took a bath on his FX45. Such a weird market. The sale brought out the worst of the CL lowballers. So different than selling enthusiast vehicles.

Selling used Infiniti is a PITA. Took a bath on my 02 Q45 as well. Resale is awful.
This is sweet. I have too many cars already.

Might be a price mistake... Missing a digit in the front
Edit: this looks more like a fake as i see more similar under priced 2013+ cars in the same price range

He had it on craigslist for about 4 months and ended up with only a few old men / chinese foreign students kicking tires and requesting test drives (he didnt give them any). They griped and whined about the fact that his corsa red was too boring of a color and they deserve money off for that.
His 458 also had a loose side mirror and since it was past warranty period, he just screwed them himself. This old guy came by and started twisting his mirrors and found that one was slower than the other. He asked my buddy to produce service records showing that the mirrors been adjusted and my buddy told him he fixed it himself. The old guy was instantly turned off and went home.
He finally gave up and sold it to a bunch of those chinese exporters who paid him in cash and probably flipped it for 3x back in China.

2006 Miata GT with hardtop. Looks like it's slightly lowered as well - the drop is small enough that I'm going to guess that its a set of Progress springs. The steering wheel has been modded as well. Has an AEM cold air intake (on the Fiat of Victoria site) and looks like the wheels were repainted (not plasti-dipped).
Knock $500-1000 off and it's a pretty nice deal.

And not to mention drifting pics in your for sale ad are a huge turn on for potential buyers... "lady driven, never tracked, oil changes every 500kms"
