I was in talks to buy this car (http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=28405) and had a verbal agreement with the seller in addition to e-mails (written right?) that he was to sell the car to me. I saw it in person and everything too. We even agreed to schedule an inspection this week and so I tried calling him yesterday (sunday) since he claimed he was busy friday and saturday. No answer. This morning I call him and he tells me he sold it and that he had e-mailed me (NEVER received an e-mail). He said since I didn't put a deposit down he decided to sell it to someone else. The thing is he NEVER asked for one and he should've called me to get a deposit down before just sellling it to someone else. If he had I would've gladly done so.
I should've sniffed out something about this guy since he gave an odd story of ownership of the car. Claims his friend "Tom" actually owns it and that they trade cars with each other. Also said the first owner DIED and the widow sold it so that's why he has NO prior maintenance record for the car before his friend "Tom" bought it about a year and a half ago. That means about 12 yrs of maintenance records are not available.
Anyhow I just had to let that out.
