Good timing. Like Matt said, a buyer can easily do a charge back or dispute the transaction and they side with the buyer. Do not accept PayPal for a car. Too many scammers now.
I had a buyer demand to use Paypal after winning the auction for a car I was selling on Ebay. Auction ended this week. It was clear in the auction that the payments I accepted were wire transfer or cash in person.
They seemed legitimate emailing me all week with relevant questions. Ebay member since 2014 with +81 positive feedback.
The moment the auction ended they claimed their paypal account was locked for a few days and couldn't send the deposit yet. They also started demanding to send the entire payment via PayPal. Their emails ranged from nice to aggressive to insulting. Saying I am suspicious for NOT accepting Paypal.
Long story short I cancelled the transaction and they denied the cancellation on eBay. ebay refunded the final value fees and I move on.
