That has to be a misprint. Or there is something seriously wrong with it. Wish I was closer to CA, though. I would go look out of curiosity.

#1943 GP for sale for $12000 ...What the ?

From the GP Talk (2006) Forum on NAM:

Selling my GP #1943 ~ $22,500
I'm located in Atlanta, GA and I'm selling my GP with 37xxx miles. My asking price is $21,000 for it.
The car is in excellent condition, aside from a few minor chips in the front hood.
Email me if you're interested.

Sounds like a scam to me!

Looks like some scammer stole his ad, and is trying to run a scam.
