Brand new RX-8 parts car (ODO: 90 miles)

Why would someone part out a NEW RX-8 with only 90 miles on it? Are these people for real?

"MAZDA RX-8 RX8 2004 brand new parts car only used 90mi"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6783

???

I also posted it here in case someone needs something. The owner might even be a member of this site!

hm, yeah, I read that, sounds like they only use the car's body.

Couldn't they take some OLD ("pre-owned" :D ) car's body for that???

The auction is only for the Renesis engine. The buy it now price is $4750. That is only a slight discount under buying a new one from Mazda.

The could have bought the shell of the car for $5700.00 from mazda instead of buying the entire car.

seems fishy to me. I usually stay away from anything on ebay with a ten foot pole no real buyer protection.

First POST :D

Been reading for about 2 weeks though...

When I get a lot more money to burn I want to put a renisis in a miata. I think it would be fun.
