Is this for real? Evo 9 mr for only $15k

I just came across this ad on craigslist someone is selling a evo 9 mr for only $15k. Their asking price seems low. Maybe i'm missing something but it says it has a clean title and in the pics it looks brand new. And the miles are only 59k. If I had the money I'd go check it out. Let me know what you guys think. They didn't put any contact info. The only thing you can do is send a note.

If this isn't allowed or if this isn't in the correct place please let me know or just delete it, thanks.

Scammers.

I've seen them before in my area (Indy).

They post several ads of good deals to illicit info over the phone.

The listing is still up. No one has flagged it so I think I'll go ahead and do that. I'd hate to see someone get scammed. I knew it was too good to be true.
