You're right the ad is currently appearing in 19 other cities across the USA.

AH3000

It's a scam.  There was a similar ad couple years ago, and placed on
Craigslist 
in multiple cities.  As I was looking for one, I think the car was
an early MGB 
if my memory serves me correctly.  Same pristine example of car,
and displayed 
in a very attractive setting. And of course, similar strange
buying 
instructions.
This car is also advertised on CL in Los Angeles.  At
the price they have it 
advertised at, one ad in Fresno would sell it if it
was legitimate.
