dont, its a scam.

youll see a lot of emails like this...firstly, if you pay through ebay and they 'hold your money' until YOU say you have the car, whats to say you just hold the money forever and say you never received the item? that wont work. ebay doesnt have that option.

secondly, who the hell brings a honda with them overseas? maybe if he got free shipping from the military, as often happens...but still. ive read lots of stories like this, where people supposedly go to Europe with their cars and try to sell it to someone in the US and say theyll ship it back. unfortunately, it just isnt real. they could just as easily sell it in europe...correct me if im wrong, but arent smog laws more lax over there anyways? there might be some things to overcome but it isnt that hard.

i wouldnt do it, i dont wanna see someone get scammed. you could donate the money to me to help fix up this 87 supra im gonna buy =P i need cash for a new HG lol. jk. but yeah, if you do decide to go forward with this...watch out.
