Question Ethicly questionable? Or pure genius?

I was reading the paper durring lunch today and flipped back to the want ads. I like looking at what cars go for these days. I saw a '91 NSX for like 18,000 and my eyebrow went up. I wouldn't ever be able to afford the insurance on it, but I had an interesting thought... Would it be considered kind of shady to call the guy up to come see the car, even though I'm not interested really in buying it, and then maybe offer my detailing service for a way good deal just so I can touch an NSX without feeling guilty? I started thinking about that as I looked at some of the other cars... I wonder what would happen if I called them up and set up a time to come out and see the car and offered to detail it after I'd seen it. I wouldn't charge my full price. I think it would be good for referals possibly in the future. Plus, they get their car detailed for a good price. Are there any problems with this do you think? Its an eager market that definitely has the need of a detailer. Who among us haven't seen a car for sale that just looks so dirty awful that you wouldn't consider paying the asking price based on its appearance?
