Hmmm....why do ads with cars in exotic places and for low prices always seem fishy???......
I wonder if it was posted by a Nigerian dealership in Jakarta?
If you email the person you'll probably get a message that starts with "Dearly beloved one..." I can see them from a mile away....
The traffic signals in the background of the picture are only used in the US. Plus the landscape doesn't look too Indonesian.
SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe the address is actually Jakarta, Indiana!
Looks like Costa Mesa- Check the European collectables website

I've talked to Craig Newmark (craigslist) a few times about scam posting and filters to prohibit it. It's an interesting technical challenge. He is very open to input and quite a down to earth, nice guy. I sent him an email about the listing and it's apparent scam nature, as busy as he is, he usually replies in a couple of hours.

Kurt - I believe you're right!
Checked the European Collectibles inventory and they have a 1968 911S with the exact same backdrop in the picture. It's a park on Placentia Ave. just north of European Collectibles location in Costa Mesa, SoCal!

That Craigslist item was 'flagged' and pulled from the listing - possibly for the scam that it was!
