It is under going investigation and the minute that I have the legitimate title for the car, I will probably sell it cheap or just get my money back from the jerk that sold it
why are u waiting for the title???
Do the following:
- call the cops
- go there with a baseball bat, and demand your money back
- go with a a bunch of guys, and demand your money back
- demand your money back!!!

you get the idea, dont waste anymore time. Hey may change his phone number, dissappear, etc.

You need to get on this right away. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay?

WOW another Minnesotan club Lexus Member... Impressive I am thoroughly excited.
As for parting the car out... yea I may make more money like that but I dont really know the demand of parts for a black ext/ tan int. '92. But quick question if I do call the cops... do I get to keep the car and get my money back? Haha That just sounds too easy.
The baseball bat is not a bad idea though. And the relentless SC fan that I am... I might yet again buy ANOTHER SC from Aliga... but he's a CL member and a pretty good guy over all... so we'll see how things work out. But someone answer my question above about the car.

And off topic... FLOSSN where in MN are you?

when you buy a car without paperwork stating anything about a warranty, it is "as-is" in every state i have checked. which = you own it.

I saw a similar thing on ebay where a guy was sellinga '97' but it had all the parts from a 98-00. The dead give away was the gated shifter.

I just drove down to Long Island yesterday to pick up a 95 SC400 I bought on ebay and I checked every body panel for the vin numbers to make sure they all matched.....They did. The guy was very impressed. He'd never seen anyone do that before. I spent over an hour checking everything out and taking it for a very long test drive before passing papers or giving him $1.

This may end up being an expensive learning experience, but do as Aliga says and call the cops. DO IT NOW!!!

Good luck.

if the vin numbers were changed on the car from a 95 to a 92, it should not matter if the car is sold "as is" or not. this is a crime,

I'm in Apple Valley. I've seen a couple other GS's around here with 20's but that's about it. Someone has my identical car with club lexus stickers on it although that car was for sale at walser mazda all summer so I don't think that guy comes on here. I have yet to see any modded SC's however.
