Drove to Philly last weekend to look at the '06 AW 6 spd coupe that was on ZHPRegistry. Looked good, drove well, but guy was too easy to negotiate price down almost 20%. Checked with Norik on the VIN and it turned out to be flood damaged. Believe we're now a recognized group of fanatics with high demand and low supply, so the scammers are starting to find us.

Agree. I know someone who just bought a ZHP. Before he bought this one, though, he ran across several ads where the seller claimed to be selling a ZHP. Turns out that they were not ZHPs. They were just made to look like them (but something was always missing, so the seller was exposed as a liar).
Be careful out there, folks.

Thanks for the heads-up Bruce. Much appreciated.
Curious: didn't carfax or other records indicate the flood damage? (Not sure who/what Norik is, sorry!)
The prospective buyers have a dilemma indeed: we need to negotiate a low price given the 'value' we come up with based on the year, mileage, options, maintenance etc, and at the same time be ready to pull the trigger quickly if the one with the right color combo comes up, but yet need to be wary if price is low or, as in this case, seller is too easy to negotiate price down. Man...
