This GT350 was sold on BAT last year.

Do you own the car?

Its always kind of suspicious to see an ebay seller with no feedback whatsoever put up such a brief and non-descript ad using only pictures from a public auction of the same car from a few years ago.

If you own the car, you might want to make it not appear so much like a scam as that is kind of what it looks like at first glance.

Saying this in an attempt to be helpful if you are legit...

No interior pictures, no engine pictures, no trunk pictures, no door pictures, no undercarriage pictures.

Sure feels like a scam.

Definitely not my car that is on EBAY.

I tried to contact the seller on EBAY but have gotten no response.

In my opinion, the EBAY posting is definitely unusual and suspicious.

The pictures with the EBAY auction look to me like they were copied verbatim from the 2022 BAT auction. 

Note that the license plate has been blacked out in the EBAY auction picture.

Ebay doesn't care. Fraudulent ads/listings are not removed.

Just so I am clear you own vin number 0F02M483182? and someone posted an ebay ad listing your car for sale?

Not my car.

I have tried to contact EBAY "seller" and they say it is their listing, but they don't respond after that.

Completed auction info is doing a disappearing act.  Wonder why.

^^^ I was 99.9% sure of that.  Very, very fishy from the get go.  I was just being facetious (attempting to).  Similar thing happened shortly after I purchased my car.  A new listing came up on eBay for my car!  I got to see all of the original eBay photos once again!
