I e-mailed the guy and this was part of his response. The car is now located at the AutoTrader.com warehouse in Denver, Colorado.The car will be shipped and insured by AutoTrader.com and Square Trade. AutoTrader.com will act as a 3rd party for our transaction. If the price is correct this thing is mine..He was working in the US temporairly and his compnay he says moved him back home to the UK...

Well see he said I should be hearing from Autotrader. I have been beating on my G35 so this can take it's place and my wife has been wanting to get another Integra and as played out as they are the one I had had some minor things done to it and it was a blast to drive and here in Arkansas (redneckville) I bet I have only seen like 4-5 Integra's not very common.

It's a scam. Really. Do a simple Google search on "Square Trade scam". Also, the MO of "I'm a guy that had to leave the US for the UK, and I have to sell cheap, please send a deposit so we can blah blah blah..." is also a dead giveaway.
Just send the money to me. I'll at least show you some gratitude for it.

if u do get escrow company it cost like 500bucks tho u pay the escrow company the full money they tell the guy that they got the money then he sends the car and if the car does not come or he car is not what he said it would be u get ur money back. and he get's a charge for faurd. so if u ask him to do this with a thrid party and he says no then it's a scam!!!! because they would charge u not him

It is not in LA it is in Denver and where it was at in LA was not affected by the flooding. The owner lives in the UK and he is saying that Autotrader.com and SquareTrade will be selling the car for him. But the more I think about it it sounds like a scam I e-mailed Autotrader.com and asked them to call me.
