a lil help

[alpinehyperlite]

So, i was browsing around craigslist, and discovered my dream car, for a VERY low price. 1997 Land Rover defender for $4800.

http://batonrouge.craigslist.org/cto/1601059494.html

I emailed the guy requesting a little more information and here is our convo:

ME:
Hello. I am very interested in the landrover. Please email me with a little more information on it, such as accidents, mileage, price, and so forth. Thanks
Morgan

HIM:
Hi,
I am selling this Defender because my platoon has been sent back to Afganistan and don't want it get old in my backyard. The price is low because I need to sell it before Feb. 24. It has no damage, no scratches or dents, no hidden defects. It is in immaculate condition, meticulously maintained and hasn't been involved in any accident..I do have the title , clear, under my name.Vin #SALDV3242VA122356.The Suv has 110,000 original miles.
It is still available for sale if interested, price as stated in the ad $4,800 . The suv is in Billings , MT , in case it gets sold I will take care of shipping. Let me know if you are interested, email back.
Regards!!!

Does this sound like a scam to anyone else but me?

I don't see how it couldn't be. If you do buy, use paypal....

Scam, tell him to get it shipped back close to you and then cash will talk...

It IS a scam! Check it out on Snopes. It's been going on for a long time. Only the cars change.

haha, first off, being the paranoid cop i am, i would have never mailed anything, and if i had met face to face i would have made sure to get a DL for the individual, whom i could track down and beat my money out of. haha secondly, I WANT THAT CAR!!!

I WANT THAT CAR!!!

Please send payment in cash, no bills larger than a 20, unmarked and in a plain brown wrapper. No cops.
