Three cars, two motorcycles on Ebay, including my Boxster, all sight unseen. You're taking a chance buying something on Ebay, so make sure the price reflects this. And remember, if you're buying from a dealer and it's below book - there's got to be a reason, i.e., why can't they sell it on their lot. Bought an '07 Beetle convertible for my daughter for well under book from a dealer. The smell inside is almost unbearable with the top up. Three years later, the smell is still there. Turns out it's from the adhesive they used to glue down some of the interior parts. No kidding, google VW and "Crayon Smell".
