50% down before PPI

I just came back from seeing a car. The seller (who already has a $500 deposit from me) says he'll only take the car to PPI if I wire 50% of the sale price to his attorney first.

Then "if the car doesn't pass PPI" (and it could be debated what that means) he would give me my money back. Has anyone come across this 50% down request before? It sounds like BS to me. What's he trying to achieve with that?
