The Official Bring A Trailer (BaT) Thread

Maw,

Yes exactly. I really liked it but im going to wait for another year or so before buying one or maybe an M2 COMP but they'll both have to be for the states. I'm even looking at sedans like An F80 M3 for more reliability Vs an E90 M3 which is my favorite but that motor is just too risky....

There's a formula to making those E9X engines reliable. And it includes adding a blower, which turns the car into monstrous fun. I want to say pistons, rods and bearings but I don't actually recall. My buddy / mechanic did it to his 6MT Sedan, so that prospect is intriguing to me, having used it a few times for a few days while he was working on this or that for me.

Scratching my head at that one honestly. None of those mods ADD value to me. They more like subtract value. "Buy the odometer get the car for free" might explain it though.

You'll laugh so hard at this, one of the best cars we have used for the last 2-3 years is a Jeep Grand Cherokee, the newer Gen models (i hate to admit it but the comfort on that vehicle is great!)

Yeah, I'm not sure why people even bother bidding until the two minute mark.

[0-60motorsports]

Serious bidding doesn't occur until the last two minutes.

Surprised this is sitting as cheap as it is. Even with it being Blk/blk SMG vert, 10K miles I thought would bring more then mid teens.

Love it! I would demod it a bit but I love it

and the wires popping out from under the dash....

And that passenger side dash trim popped out.

BaT final prices are sneaky because they don't include the BaT fee or your tax obligation. I've crunched the numbers when I was bidding on a car - 27.7 becomes over 31.

Then you'll have shipping on top of that if needed, thats 500-2000 more.

Hopefully people aren't learning how buying a vehicle works for the first time on BAT 😂

I'd say all that added up to a good price for an IB Comp with reasonable miles - $27,250.

I don't have the energy to come up with a witty pun about how bad E46 grey interior is. It sucks ass to look at and everyone knows it.

[///Marecki]

In my opinion, the color (interlagos) makes that whole spec. If they made that much of a mess in the interior, I can guarantee the paint is god awful and needs tons of help too.

If there's one thing I learned in my day, it's how nuanced and technical properly caring for your paintwork is.

hahaha I have em too I just hate the way they look. function over form I guess!

Yeah I have them in the X5M as well.
