Price is too good to be true. Place my bet that its likely a fake ad. | There was also an E46 m3 today for $2700. I didn't post it because I'm not an idiot and it's obviously fake.
Some people on this thread need to use a bit of common sense and quit posting obviously fake ads on every page

With the manual 08's, make sure the clutch has been updated when the kms get higher. Huge cost to replace since they have to update to the 09-12 clutch, which isn't just a simple swap. Can be $$$

That rear plate mount seems to be on every JDM car. That’s what I usually look for. Seems like a stupid way but I haven’t seen it be wrong yet.

Point to be made - overall people take much better care of cars in Japan than they do here. And yes, I speak this from experience

Just my opinion though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'd say most of the ones you see for sale are jdm, they're just cheap and plentiful over there. I'd consider it a bit of a red flag that the ad doesn't mention its from Japan

2. Definitely not plentiful
Do you think cars are free there or something? lol christ
