Newer cars with digital odometers don't roll back to 1 so I don't understand how he can have an 2003 and state he only 20 miles on it. If his car has 100,020 miles on it, I can understand the $15k price. Other than that, it smell fishy.
He's not going to sell the car for 15 grand. He just said that to get people to bid on it early. If he was going to sell it for 15 grand, he'd have that as a "buy it now" price.
It's just a ploy for him to try to get people to bid on the car early, rather than waiting till the end of the auction. I bet this car either doesn't sell... or sells for like 28 grand.

Ok so what he's saying is that he drove it home from the dealer 3 years ago and stored it? I mean dealer gives it to you with like, lets say in his defense, 10-13 miles, and he drove it 7-10 miles home and never touched it for 3 years!!! WTF, OFCOURSE something is wrong, unless they are filthy rich and "collects" cars. Someone should call and inquire as if they were serious and maybe go see it in person...
He had to have ment 20K miles. It's kind of odd there is no photo of the odometer though. He states it was driven only in the summer.

First off, its a brand new user with 0 feedback. That alone is hard to trust buying to anyone, and also explains why there is no buy it now (you need a certain amount of feedback to use options like that on ebay)
BUT BESIDES THAT, heres the thing!! I always love checking out cars on eBay to see what people do to them and what they sell for and such.. I have seen those pictures before! I recognize the exact scenery and that exact black coupe! This was at the time I was showing my friend the 18" Rims, and I used that exact picture of the close up on the rim! This fool just stole those pictures from the other guys auction for his car.
Hopefully nobody gets scammed into that.

It is a scam...
If you contact the seller they will tell you that they are from some far off central european country and they have a legit reason for having the car (even though you can usually see that it is a North American car). They will then tell you that they need to ship it and don't worry - they are straight up. They will then tell you that they need to do this via western union...

If you look at this pic, it doesn't look like the odo shows only 2 digits on it, and the driver seat certainly doesn't look like it's been used for only 20 miles lol. Must have meant 20k. A while ago someone tried to sell a Maxima on eBay with pics of my friend's car that were stolen off his cardomain page..
