Everything still worked out but the chassis has 32K more than what it reads on the cluster. Seller moved within 6 months of purchase and left no forwarding addy. Buyer beware, there's a lot of scammers looking to make a quick buck at your expense through Ebay or a private sale. When you buy a dozen eggs at the store you always check for the broken ones before you buy. This should apply to cars as well. Good detective work Andreas.


Yes its a cracked egg. Perfect analogy.

I am pretty sure this car has been listed on eBay before.

His whole story sounds fishy on ebay. I thought it was a lie the minute you say all original and in the picture its got an aftermarket stereo

I think many of us have had the 'drive to be disappointed' experience.

Just last year I drove 4 hours to see a car that was nothing like described, barely drove straight, sounded like straight cut gears, leaked at front and rear main seal plus about 3 other places (yet seller insisted no leaks anywhere) and I could go on and on...

BUT my record was a 10 hour drive one way for a car that was so bad it shook like it was going to fall apart when you hit 40mph (turns out it went into a ditch and caused all sorts of damage to all sorts of things the seller never bothered to mention) so I drove 10 hours back home empty handed on that one too!


Buyer beware indeed!!!!

This White NX2000 with 168,000 miles looks better than the red NX2000 with 35,000 miles

Some one needs to report it as i am having a hard time doing so.

The guy in my opinion took out the original speedo cluster and put in another one to drive the car around and now its time to sell it he has put the original 35,000 mile on back in

I reported him for his title of original owner. Autocheck lists 2 owners. This isn't the reason why the listing is bad but ehhhh, I can't see an option that states the mileage on this thing is bogus.
