Anything else can be forged...cash, traveler's checks, cashier's checks, etc.
Can you wire into a regular domestic checking account (using the USA routing information) from overseas??

Otherwise, I would not trust paypal. Cash in hand my friend, then deposited in your bank, then sign over the car - the only way to be 100% sure you are not being scammed.

I know the dollar is weak, and some cars are finding their way back to Europe - but a one-off like this via eBay sounds fishy to me..
