Truly weird Craigslist Ad - 993 Turbo

Not sure what to make of this one - it's either a twisted deal of some sort, or a really stupid poster. So someone with that exact Mercedes model and color combination is going to be trolling craigslist looking to trade for a Turbo?? And the phone number is bogus - unless anyone wants to call it 10 times replacing x with a number.
NOT FOR SALE ........For Trade ONLY 1997 Porsche 993 turbo extremely

That's a very goofy ad for sure. Besides, craigslist sounds like an odd choice to advertise a big-ticket car.

Anyone with any sense would talk to a high end luxury exotic used dealer. There are plenty in the Bay Area. Hell, maybe even the Mbz dealer. Dealers can be really useful at times.

I should call and help him out. People love me, and my marketing strategy is second to none. If he can get over the fact that my car didn't sell because it is red....I'll have him set up an escrow account and then...
