Default 2007 RS4 for $23,000 @ 10,000 miles?

http://tinyurl.com/6j7dgl

I'm looking into buying an RS4 in the future, and I found this one on Autotrader at an exquisite price of $23,000. It has 10,000 miles on it, which is a lot for the typical RS4 I think, but does anyone suspect something has gone wrong with the engine and this guy is trying to boot it out ASAP? I'm thinking about driving down for a test drive myself once he gets back to me, but I was curious as to what you guys thought of this.

Sorry, what I really meant to ask was do you guys think it's safe buying a RS4 with that mileage? It's almost irresitable noting the incredible amount of money I'd save as opposed to a brand new one, but yeah. It seems that RS4's depreciate immensely once they hit the 3,000 to 5,000 mark. I'm just curious as to if there's anything I need to watch out for?

There has to be something wrong with the car. I have a B7 08 RS4 with 8,000 miles on it and it would most likely go for 55-60K wih a retail of 71K brand new. A B7 07 RS4 with 10K miles on it should go for atleast 46 to 50K(roughly) not $23,000......Unless you're talking about a B5 RS4, then my next question would be who imported it and how did it get through customs.

I am willing to bet that this is a scam.

+1 Scam, I almost got sucked into an RS6 with 20,000 miles on it for $25000. Sounded good at the time! If they mention anything about going through ebay and them needing your name and email its a scam. []

I'm also looking into buying a used RS4, and after browsing autotrader it seems that there are a number of B7 RS4s for sale under $30,000. Do you guys think these are all scams? The are suspiciously low compared to KBB

They are either scams or there is fine print somewhere.

If you buy it and you actually get the car I'll buy it from you for $24,000.
