Luxcarnet.com dishonest?

I was looking at an ad for a 356 speedster on Luxcarnet.com that was misplaced under the 356a cab posting. I called and emailed them over the Thanksgiving weekend, and got a call back on Tues stating that the car was probably still available because it is a very recent posting and that I would get a call back as soon as he is able to locate the owner. Well, didn't get a call back. So I decided to call them again today. Talked to Mike (CEO?), informed him of the vehicle ID. He read the ad and immediately told me that I probably don't want to buy the car, because it probably is a non-matching number. I questioned his statement, and he proceeded to take my info again and assured me I would get a call back. Guess what? I just checked the posting again and the car is sold. My feelings is that he bought the car himself because I brought it to his attention. The asking price was $63k, which is probably underpriced. The operation smells fishy to me.
