news How much will this sell for? Part 2

[bluebmw]

I don't know about this car specifically, but the seller is (or was) a scam artist...

 

He listed my touring (VIN confirmed) on eBay last year as if he owned it. After discussing the specifics of the car for about an hour on the phone, I confronted him and he pretended like he didn't know what I was talking about. I have the entire call recorded and have considered reporting him to the police.

 

Back to the car, it's been on eBay many times over the last few months. It appears there is some shill bidding taking place, as the auctions always gets close to the buy-it-now price in the first day, yet it never sells. Buyer beware!

 

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I have met this guy in person as well - shady character... His known aliases are: Alex Safari and Ross Aghadianian

Bleah.

 

That is all.

 

I'm with Ray on this one.

 

Shinny paint though should attract those who like that.

$19,500

I think guessing the prices on these cars that are built on the owners taste are trickier to guess. Making for more fun speculating. Personally I wouldn't even consider buying it.

Compared to the recent Tii, which I thought was in worse condition than this car, I am going to call $27,650.00.

 

That is if it really is "For Sale" and whether or not the seller actually own's it...

[Beemeup]

I'm in at $20,002.

[schoir]

$20,450.

 

Then spend another $1,500 to make all either schwarz or all verona.

Well, I'm gonna throw a stupid high number in there cause last time I was way under. I would not think that it would reach the BIN price, but what the hell do I know. Once it gets close, the BIN will disappear and it will be a no reserve auction. Let's say $23,980. I will also predict that it will not "really" sell and we will see it listed again. There. Might as well pack them stickers and send them my way....

Really? Very dubious taste, ordinary 02, and they're fetching that sort of money over there? Bleah indeed. I'm going to go with "zero $, not sold" as it sounds like a scam anyway and even if it's not you'd be a fool to buy something off a guy with that rep  :-)

[Mike_R]

Zero pictures with any real indicators of condition.  I wonder what the underside and trunk are hiding???  No mention of engine condition.   I doubt it sells at all.

[eurotrash]

Yeah.  I'm thinking it won't hit the reserve. 

 

Its the speakers.. that's horrible. and the lack of rocker trim. 

[bob02]

Yikes. Too many personal touches to that poor car.  First shift into third would put that tv screen thru the console, after I stomped the d/s speaker. Is that for reals?

 

   I won't guess on this one, but if I hadn't see the current auction numbers, I would have guessed 9,500, and felt a little sorry for the next owner.

[pklym]

$17,600

 

Right where it is now.

 

Two-tone cars need to go away.

[roadhog0]

That's a 17k car?   And here I was thinking my 02 was barely worth 15k....

 

I'm saying $18,201

[achman]

19,500 and reserve not met
