I see you guys finding these deals, and just wonder what you do differently. I never even see those cars listings. Like I know my excitement to get a "nice" sports car blinded me on my first m3 and I would definitely walk away if i looked at that car today.
The s2k, I think I paid a little under market but the seller was in a tight spot but I think it was closer to the market than the m3 was. That car has been mostly fine but it's also a Honda.
Also, my comment about a little more was more meant for "similar" examples to DJs car. Super meticulously maintained with records and what not. Usually those go for above 14 unless you find a good deal like you did.

I know it's irrelevant to the thread since DJ has sold the car, BUT....
Some of us (including myself) don't ask for enough when buying a car. We think the price is fair (or close to), and we don't want to upset the owner because we really like the car, and have already sold ourselves on owning the car. I believe the number one thing that most people do to get that "great deal" is ask. Ask for the ludicrous deal, AND have the control to walk away, if the price is that absurd.
