So it turns out this doesn't appear to be a scam, but an elaborate advertisement for a "sell your car" site. I got this after responding to the e-mail

Hey thanks for the quick reply

I told her that it was still for sale and she just mailed me back this...

"Hi i found one yesday !!! thx I told ya craigs sucks lol! got it here http://carsales1.info/best-sales-advice/ (better choice an ezr to use!) thanks for tryiong tho - wanna go for a drive? "

Seems like you might be missing something ?

Next tiem maybe? Good luck with the selling and thanks again.




Seriously...

That's douchtastic and sure is a lot of work to draw people to your site.

They have been doing this for years. In 1995 when I was selling my Nissan in the paper, Autotrader (paper version) would call me up and want to show it. In 2008 when I was selling my 944 on CL, I would get calls for some other site and emails to list with PorshaTrader. Good grief.
