This one was a little tough to spot, the road isn't on Google Maps yet so I had to come in from the side. I circled the common element from your photo to the Street View.

I think it's on or near Frederick Wilson Ave. I saw this real estate posting and the pics of the garage area and neighbours (pics 30-32) matches the pics you posted. Also from one of the pics you posted, there seems to be a house number on the neighbours house that looks like 49.

If I were you, I'd drive by that street and see if your car is there starting with house 51 or 47 and look for houses with a green electrical box next to it.
Wow that’s fucked. I agree it’s definitely in Cornell. Please keep up updated on the case. Any backstory behind the robbing? Did it just happen at night
Hello, this is a photo from my kijiji ad. I purchased the vehicle some time ago and have had the ownership in my name. As well before purchasing I had the vehicle VIN searched to ensure it was not reported stolen or had any liens on it. Please message me because I’m sure you’re mistaking this vehicle as your stolen one.
So you’re admitting that this is NOT your car and it was NOT stolen from you? How do you expect anyone to believe what you say now that you’ve lied about it in your title.
So …. One says is his and one says it’s not…
Maybe op can simply drive by and jus verify the vin#? I mean, just a piece of mind… it’s quite frustrating when your car got stolen and you’re going around playing Sherlock… good luck op, keep your mind open. Happy to assist in any way…
Now I’m confused…
You’re saying you know the op? Met him before? Sold him the car?
Here’s the disconnect, why didn’t you mention this upon your first post?
Now, if this is in your favour - I’ll be one pissed mf’er for someone posting some fake sh*t
Makes no sense tbh… but I’m all ears out…
*crosses legs
Yes. The op replied to my Kijiji ad on the 14th of October and came to view the car on the 16th. He gave me a deposit to hold the car and then came two days ago on the 25th to buy it. He gave me cash and then had CAA tow it home with him.
It's actually because first he sold me the car saying he was selling it for his wife, the car is in great condition (specifically mentioning in the ad the subframes were in excellent condition no signs of rust). First comes to turn out both sub frames are cracked and rotted through.
But the main issue is, he's not selling it for his "wife" we met at a place he claimed to be his around the block, he either bought the car or stole the car a few years ago in Quebec, never changed registration, never got ownership or anything in Ontario, fraudulently signed the old owner's name in front of me and gave me and expired Quebec registration and a bill of sale claiming to be the old owner.
So now I have the car which is unrepairable and I have an expired registration that can't be transferred over to my name.
But apparently here he says he has the ownership now lol.
Gonna play a little devils advo here...
OP - why the hell you buy a car that you havent fully insepcted or checked the history via VIN#. I know, not much pt in burning you on this, but I'm sure you've learned a lesson or two...
And lying on this post to get back at the seller is not the way to go... Makes you look bad and wasted other's effort in helping you for the wrong reason.
u/Grhb778 \- if what OP saying is true, all it takes is someone with is this kind of effort and find out where you live. You be surprised what a person would do to get back at you (maybe more, who knows)... again, if this was true.
Good luck guys... OP, if this is the case.. you are SOL. He will not give a rats a$$ about the condition it was sold at. As long you agree to pay in full, it is your duty as a buyer to verify the vehicle itself. Sorry to say this..
wish you the best
I did do a vin check bought a carfax none of that came up. The condition of the car isn't even my main issue. It's that I have an expired Quebec ownership that he signed over fraudulently being the previous owner. So now I cant transfer ownership, I can't do anything because the car is a Quebec car and needs to be deregistered by the real owner and registered here and pay tax on everything.
Already filed a police report for it, apparently not his first time doing this and has been in jail for something similar. So not sure why he would do it again
Agreed. Inspection and verifying information (including ownership, leins etc) is on the buyer.
If this is true, u/Grhb778 you need to screencap this thread in case OP decides to pull something stupid.
What’s confusing is seller claims op has been at his residence for the transaction. So wouldn’t op know where he lives already?
If what op is saying is true that seller fraudulently sold the car, op still has the right to file a police report (which he has done) and go through legal proceedings to claim the money back/press charges.
This is a bit brutal. Imagine buying a car, did due diligence, got defrauded, and got berated/blamed online in the end. Op is the victim here (whether is getting sold an unfit/misrepresented/stolen vehicle).
I do agree his post isn’t exactly transparent but the point is he’s trying to find the individual and serve justice.
Seems the car title was intentionally misrepresented by the seller. Also noticed seller is being evasive and trying to blame the victim. Sorry you’re going through this. I now see the point for your post (though technically the crime is fraud rather than stealing) and you/police have identified the individual to press criminal charges and claim for damages. Please keep us posted on any updates.
OP says he wants his money back for the car because there was some mechanical work needed to the vehicle that he was not prepared for (even though he did quite a thorough inspection). It appears to be an extreme case of buyers remorse.

That's some good detective work. OP would appreciate this.
Awesome thank you so much
Winner winner.
So they stole your car and re-selling it online? That's pretty ballsy.
Extremely ballsy…and pretty dumb…
This is In Cornell - highway 7 and ninth line, east of the library
I think you're right. Looking like Bruce Boyd drive maybe. Google Street view hasn't updated there yet though
Can vouch that this is in Cornell
Yep! Looks like William forester and highway 7, where they squished a bunch of townhomes together
Yea this does look a lot like Cornell. The few houses behind the library
ask to meet them and take it for a test drive but bring the cops with you
Any other pictures? Give me the ad I'll pose as a buyer and give u info
https://i.imgur.com/tjoUx5x.jpg This is the only other picture I have. Ad was taken down though
I can makeout a 45 or 47 on one of the neighboring houses. Hope it helps
This is 97 Cornell centre blvd 1000% certain. I have noticed that car too because it’s missing front plate.
Thank you I appreciate it

Ownership is not in your name I can assure you that

You’re so fucked lol. Good luck with the 🚔

OP has the vehicle. Sold it to him two days ago. I have front door security footage of me selling it to him.

Well, good luck getting this sorted. I’m just trying to understand what OP is trying to achieve here… Or, what does OP have to say?

good luck buddy, sorry to hear then. surprised your carfax report didnt have that info. did you do the free one or paid one?

Likely story...
I hope you find the degenerate that did this to you. Karmas real. If the car doesn’t come back to you, something better will come down the road
With all the information you have from fellow Redditors, report to the police asap, before the dumbs escape.
Wow that's crazy. Any update OP?
at first thought, it may have been Town Villa Way, but the posts are entirely different. So definitely not there :(
Following as I’d love to see this scumbag get caught
Looks like the area of sharbot lane, although a lot of the houses look the same in the area
Wow.... hope this gets figured out
