Bogus advertisement I believe.......

Not found here, but in the FB Market Place for Detroit Area. Vehicle looked great inside and out in photos (other than missing cloisonne on SAAB badges). All photos taken in an Apartment Complex Parking Lot.
1) Saw ad Monday evening, identified the vehicle as 2009 9-7X with under 80K miles and asking $6400. Price and miles both suspiciously low for a 9-7X in Detroit. FB Marketplace stated ad had been placed two weeks earlier.
2) Contacted Seller via FB Messenger. Said I just saw the ad and noticed it was two weeks old, asked if vehicle was still available.
3) Seller replied saying the vehicle was still available.
4) I responded asking what is best method to contact the Seller to learn more details.
5) Seller responded saying to just tell him when I was arriving. NOTE: The ad did not contain an address, only a city!
6) I replied saying his location was a 60 mile drive for me, and I would like more info before committing to a 2+ hour round-trip drive.
7) Seller replied saying the vehicle had been sold.
Reminds me of trying to buy an enclosed Trailer last Spring. Although the Trailer Ads were off-the-charts with bogus pricing and details, whereas this one was just enough off to raise my suspicions
