What's the best way to market my car to money launderers?

[maw1124]

More like taking the money out of crashing crypto and putting it somewhere that isn't crashing as hard and fast.

Or something like that.

I mean look at the recent ferrari auction. There is no rationaile for 100-300% increases over market levels on 7 figure cars. There have been studies on cars beating some big indexes over time. These are the ultra rich trying to diversify assets and/or speculate.

[maw1124]

There has to be some money laundering going on on some of these. Collector cars are the new art.

I've been making this "laundrozmatz" point for years now. I hate that it's looking more and more likely.

I doubt title changes hands... something about the winner's prior bidding history is similarly ridiculous, or at least it seems that way to me.

I also don't expect title to change hands here... https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...z-cl65-amg-68/

It's all become absolute cinema.

Especially when you consider that two months ago this 8k mile example sold for $56,500. Same car, same year, no accidents. That's insanity. I agree, no way the buyer actually coughs up over 300k, talking about losing your ass.

Man that is a weird one, I'm definitely not paying $50k for this car under any circumstances. I kind of understand the thought process, but not on that car. Which is to say I would spend another 10 to 20k to get something with less mileage and in better overall condition.

Car goes for $50K! Shows what three motivated bidders can do. And then a Laguna over Laguna pops up: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...-m3-coupe-121/

even at 30k USD it would be overpaying. Underbody condition, weird carfax, accident, high mileage.

The Canadian Carfax is provided in the gallery below and shows the aforementioned damage, theft, and collision claims.

$50K?? I guess premium mods can bring all the money. Crazy
