The best I've gotten, amid a daily stream of Prince Abdullahs or offshore oceanographers who want to pay me by Paypal scam, is a registered sex offender who lives in the ghetto of SC (yeah, I think it's prudent to research people before you meet up with them for a test drive :lol: )
Waiting on payment for my LS1/M3 today, I reflect yet again on all those numbnut 16-year old commentors with black spraypainted wheels on their otherwise stock cars. They comment "Could be done for $5k cause my uncle's nephew's roommate said so".
Just like the BaT thread where the guy called the Forgeline RS wheels "Chrome" and in general seemed to have no idea what he was actually talking about. (I did appreciate the article Dave since it brought attention to the car!) Just crazy how many people proclaim themselves experts when they have no idea what they are talking about.
Almost as bad is when people link another swapped e36 (325i too) that is $3k under your asking price and looks like this below...seriously?
