    Default JDM Vin on a car?

    Got a little situation. To sum it up, a buddy of mine found a R34 V Spec II on ebay. I am tryin to tell him that its a scam. The guy is sellin it for like ten grand blah blah blah. Either way, I told him to get the vin. The guy is sending him back a ten character Vin.
    My Question: Is a JDM vin shorter? Does a JDM vehicle have a vin? Any serious info to tell my boy?

    2 things. One he is a dumbass.



    As the above person stated, why would a $70K+ vehicle be for 10K? Also how does he plan on getting it legal and such? Is it already registered and titled?

    Also, There is no such thing as a JPN vin. JPN uses chassis codes. Give me the chassis code the guy is giving you and I can put it into the JPN Nissan Fast Software I have and tell you if it is a valid vin as well as production info about the vehicle.

    The story goes... the guy A (seller)'s brother died. This was his car. Blah blah blah. The car reminds him of it blah blah blah. So he wants to sell it. I think its a complete scam. Guy B (buyer) is selling his bike and guy A is giving him 3 months to do so. Then once guy B has the money, Guy A is going to ship the car over, Guy B gets 24 hours to inspect car and then he tells the Pay service to send or deny funds to Guy A.
    I think its complete shit, way too good to be true. But my boy is set that this guy is working with him. He doesnt believe me so I figure If I get Atlanta's best to help convice him or help him.
    Again thanks in advance.

    Yes... he is a dumbass.....

    and NO... that is NOT a real chassis code.


    BTW, here is what is going to happen. The guy is going to give your boy 3 months to come up with the money. He is then going to say 1 of 2 things.

    1. Hey Send me the money and I will send the car. Once you inspect it I will keep the money. If not I will send it back!

    Hopefully your friend isnt THAT dumb.

    Or what is MUCH more likey

    2. Hey lets use "X" Escrow service! That means you are 100% sure you are getting a good deal since you arent going to give ME the money. You will give it to an Escrow!

    Well guess what? The Escrow is a scam. He gets the money. Old trick.


    Also come on... how realistic does that story sound man? I mean so if my mother died in her house... and it is worth $100K I am going to sell it for $10K JUST to get rid of it? I mean why not sell it for half price? It will still move just as quickly! Common Sense people.....

    Also where is the car? Is it legal? Is it motorexd? What color year specs ect? There arent many legal R34s in the US... so if it is indeed legal, one of my guys should know about it.

    I sent the link to my buddy. He would like to add that guy A (seller) that he claims to be selling it so cheap because it is a bitch to conform to UK standerds before someone will buy it there.
    He asks what 1439/2000's cousins name is
    Thanks

    Look man... I have no problem with people asking questions. Belive me, I asked a LOT of questions in order to get mine. But a little common sense is in order here...

    I mean, does this REALLY sound like a legitimate transaction to you?


    Also it sounds like the car is in the UK correct? What do you plan to do about that? I assume you know there is no way to legalize a Skyline anymore correct?

    pretty much all of these scams have something to do with the vehicle/item being in the UK. i can guarantee it's a scam.

    .......................LOL! There is no such thing as a Skyline manufactured and purchased in the US.

    The only thing remotely close is a Skyline that was sent to Motorex AFTER it was IMPORTED to the US in order to be brought up to US standards...

    Also umm... how are you going to prove this is a motorexd vehicle when you bring it over? I assume he has shown you some proof of this? You have to look at it this way... I spent an EXTRA $15-20K to get the vehicle motorexed... why the HELL would I send it back out of the country when I can get one in the UK for MUCH MUCH less? It just doesnt make sense..

    Couple things.. the VIN/Chasis code he gave you is false... find out why.

    A Motorex car WOULD have a 17 Digit VIN. Also there would me a motorex sticker under the hood as well as in the door jamb. He would also have documentation showing that the vehicle was taken in my Motorex.

    There is no such thing as getting a Skyline and THEN sending it to Motorex. If it came over legally it went STRAIGHT to motorex and he bought it from them or paid for the work in advance. US Customs DOES NOT let you take a Skyline from port... It has to be sent BY CUSTOMS directly to Motorex....

    Ask him why he sent it to the UK doesnt make sense... I mean you can buy a R34 over there for like 20-40K why waste the money sending it over?

    Ask him who had it motorexed.. also ask how much it cost and when he had it done.

    Ask for specific specs about the car. Color, year, mileage, mods ect.

    Also ask when he had it in the USA and for how long. Also where in the USA was it.

    If it was a motorex car he had a US title.. ask for a copy of it... JPN would not take the US title from him.. the would issue a completely new one...

    Also ask him about insurance if it was in the USA... who insured it for him.. how much was it ect....

    Also ask how HE got it over here.. where did it come from.. ect.




    Those are just starter questions.. believe me man.. its a scam.. the stuff he is saying is not adding up. However I will be happy to help you as much as possible.

    btw... if he actually said "miles" that is a dead giveaway... NOBODY says miles with a Skyline.. even if they are in the US.. its ALWAYS KM.....

    I mean of course that is obvious once you think about it... but thinking quickly you would quote miles... just happens if you dont really have one..

    Believe me... I quote all my shit in km now... even my speed when I am discussing issues I am having I talk about in KM... just something you change to when you have a Skyline...

    i really hope you are not considering sending this person your money because you will lose it. there is no chance this person is selling a real car by the description you gave. 11000 on the odometer, pristine condition, he could pull an EASY 20k out of it locally. NOBODY would but a motorex skyline and send it over to the UK. what they want are people like yourself that don't understand that when things are too good to be true they usually are.... and this is WAYYYYYY too good to be true.

    sayajin has already proven it's a scam over and over, please don't make a $10k mistake.
