Yeah its a scam they want your email address..

possibly to try and hack your ebay account....or just send junk mail thru...

i was looking at a porsche 911 the other day and the ad was virtually the same.

Bit smart should say WRX with STI spoiler. Wonder how many would fall for that.

I'm a bit of an ebay newb but isn't it against against ebay rules for either buyer or seller to request contact outside of ebay???

Feel for the clowns that have bid on it. Something must be dodgy.

his not saying its an STi. he really should have a comma in there, its saying my06 wrx, STi spoiler, that important comma is missing.

guy has a perfect feedback rating?? and been a member for ages?
unless his account has been hacked by someone and they are posting this up

apart from the plates looking non australian which shows its proly a scam, it looks legit.

bids could get up the 25-30k mark which is what a my06 is worth, he takes cash on deliver, take that option and see if its real :P

they are south australian rego plates.

If you want to inquire about it I suggest sending your phone number and ask them to call you. that should help find out whether they are legit. or ask them for their email address
