The Official Bring A Trailer (BaT) Thread

I've said this before but as long as you don't make the number of pedals in your car your whole personality, you're good. The heart wants what it wants.

One of the best combos! I'd only get one in SMG but depending on price i'd be ok with the 6MT

Yeah these are as nice an athletic cruiser as they are a track car.

One of my buddies has a few of the GT series 911s (I forget which ones, don't speak Porsche) but we were discussing in the shop one day manual v paddles. I found his take interesting, something to the effect of: "I drive faster and more aggressive with the paddles. In the manual I tend to just take it easy. Too much work to drive fast." That made too much sense to me. Of course we're both well into our 50s, don't need any extra work.

A 6Series shark, sure give me a stick -- it doesn't go fast anyway. But for this and the AMG I prefer paddles.

Still a baby... get it while critical parts are somewhat still available.

EDIT... I've pretty much decided these seats are never going to be redone in factory material, and that's probably a good thing -- given the production numbers any "originality premium" is probably illusory. And I'm not sure I want more of that material, given my life with it so far.

S/C S52 > S54 by a wide margin. And it will probably never break.

True, I have never had a problem with it in almost a decade. I should probably keep it and just raise the boost with HTE

AA stg2 with the Rotrex c38 and I've driven NA e36 M3, doubt I would remove and keep the car, without throwing an s54 in it 😂

It'll sell for sure, your just leaving money on the table most of the time. I took mine off my E36 M3 with the intent to sell the car. Sold the setup for 4k few years ago and still have the car. Just made it N/A with 3.5 intake, injectors, tune, and cams. I don't know why but I have more fun with it N/A than I did with the SC. What kind of setup do you have?

With 30k miles, it'd be worth rescuing at the right price.
Looks like it was modified 15 years ago.

I mean how bad can it be........ oh yikes

[WestBankM4]

That thing was probably a show car at one point in the mid to late 2000's, the stereo system, Brembo calipers, interior with inserts and the random engine bits. It screams local show car circuit mid 2000s.

I'm thinking about listing my TV up on BAT, not sure how well it would do being supercharged, not Dinan

I went to see it in person, I don’t know why anyone would pay that much money for it. Prob 10 significant dings in body, paint had marks from moisture on car cover on roof, a pillar and finisher rail. Hood wouldn’t even open to see the engine bay 😂. Another undisclosed painter part on passenger side

[scotty737]

that car needs a ton

Head unit is from like ‘05… is Monster Cable still in business, 🤣

2016 might have been the last registration…

Mine had three different ancient cables in it when I bought it this year.

What an odd combination of spec, parts, condition, 30k, and no reserve.
