Default Fake S4?

Ok so I came across this "S4"on ebay. Something seems wrong to me, the large gaps between the fender and wheel. Also the fact that there are no pictures under the hood. What do you guys think? I just dont want anyone gettin ripped off.

Dunno for sure, but there does seem to be a bigger gap in the wheels, bit it could just be the aftermarket wheels. And did the 2000 have dual exhaust? A check of the VIN would settle the answer pretty quickly, yes?. Any one who can do that?

I dont see why someone would put all the s4 parts on it cause they wouldn't get that $ back in the sale of the car since its not too much more than a a4.

It just seems like for all the other S4s they show the engine, because lets be honest its nice to look at.... and yeah I mean someone who would sell an A4 as an S4 on ebay would be someone who knows someone who has a chop shop.

Looks like an s4 to me. I dont see this big bumper gap your talking about. Plus why go through all the trouble of converting everything to s4 when you could just sell it as an a4 and pocket all that money
