Something Fishy...

[DrivingTheFuture]

Why is this Model X so cheap? Only 6k miles? With all those options it had to be well north of 100k new... Are these really depreciating this fast? This doesn't bode well for our 75D... My only thought it it could be salvage...https://www.carsforsale.com/vehicle/details/37305347

Its too cheap to be true. Thats loaded. Got the vin: 5YJXCBE22GF004462
Ill run it. Give me a min. Something looks off about it though. Fishy.

I'll take two at that price!

Ran it multiple times and did some research. Heres the thing. It is a silver 90D that was delivered on 6/28/16. Its vin is early and that can make people nervous but some are great while some are lemons. This didn't show anything about a lemon or flood or nothing. Ot shows clean title. If you would purchase it, ask Tesla for service records and have it inspected thoroughly. Just my .02.

Perfect for someone waiting in line for a Model 3, it's about the same price.... crazy. (I wonder if it has AP1 enabled?)

Autocheck shows 4 history records. This car looks like it is for sale in IN but has Florida plates. It shows also being currently offered in Virginia. If it was me I would pass, its too skeptical.

I've seen MX's in the high 50s like this before, it always turns out to be some shady internet dealer that just wants you to look at their inventory, and does so with fake postings. With more research into that MX, I'm sure you'll find another ad for it with a price 20k higher - that's the real one. I highly doubt it's genuine.

This is interesting...I hope my 90D value didn't fall to $60k...gotta be at least $85k. I paid $120k less than 2 years ago.

At that price it would be worth the 300 dollar airplane ticket to go look at it and if it’s real buy immediately. Even the lemon law 2016’s do 65-75k at auction. Model x holds its value extremely well so I’m also guessing to good to be true but I hope someone snags it for that price.

I agree with you.

A while back, TEG alerted me that someone was using my Roadster VIN (clean Carfax report) with pics of another Roadster on eBay. I'd be asking a LOT of questions about this one.

Interesting... thanks for doing that. I wonder if Ed Bolian's "VinWiki" service would help.

Doubt it. If something was so fishy and evasive and depreciating 50%+ they would not post it to vinwiki, also I think it is more for exotic cars, if you know what I mean. I searched everywhere and got some vin reports for you.

Scam alert. If it was a real price, another buyer would have scooped it up quickly and sold it for what it's really worth.

 

[vandacca]

I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss this deal. Maybe it was owned by a legitimate Nigerian Prince who needed to offload it quickly and return back home. Now, if they ask you to wire them $10,000 in advance to have the vehicle shipped to you, then you know it's a real deal.

Stopped by to look at the car. The sales person said she knew why we were here when we pulled up in our MX. She said that their web site had been hacked last night and they now have listings for dozens of high priced cars at ridiculously low prices, none of which they actually have. She apologized and said she didn’t know how to fix the hack till their service provider comes in Monday. Oh well we were passing by anyway.

Same vehicle listed for $92,950 here:
Tesla Model X 90D Silver - Low Milage - Mint Condition - Lots of Upgrades

I don't trust "carsforsale.com"

Now that's an accurate price

So I'm emailing a person who claims to be the owner. Other than the red flags listed here, the email service is an encrypted one: tutanota.com. I'll see what I can find out.

 

[santana338]

It looks like someone using the email [email protected] has setup a very flashy fake Edmunds site that is using the Edmunds brand to fool marks into thinking they are using a trusted intermediary to buy a car.
