I currently own a stg 1+ B6 audi a4. There is a stage 3 vf supercharged 2001 volkswagen golf that I'm looking at purchasing with under 40k miles. I've never owned a fast car and this looked like a good deal to me. He lives 300 miles away and he said that he could have it delivered to me for a $2500 fully refundable deposit through ebay. He is selling it for $6500
What should I look out for before purchasing this car? I'm just cautious because it seems too good to be true.
