The ad shows the car is in New York City, but the pics are clearly in a suburb.

I know I could be wrong, but most driveways are either blacktop due to cost, or really nice pavers when money is no object (or a combination thereof). And almost always with Belgium blocks lining the edges.

Maybe someone can somehow find the ad... wait... google is my friend.

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the ad where this Craigslist ad was pulled from. And I KNEW that house looked familiar:

It's the owner of Vanguard Motor Sales' house in MI (not in NY).

SCAM!

But hey, if you want, I can sell you guyz da Brooklyn Bridge.

I have to tell you, I impressed MYSELF! I'm not usually the best Googler

I just searched on the the sentence that seemed pretty unique (about who built it) and BAM, this other listing came right up. And what's funny is that as soon as I saw something about Vanguard Motors, I recognized his house!

Need to track down a car, I might be your man. Need to find that missing email from yesterday, call my assistant!
