Sorry, I guess that was a biased comment as I have never sold anything on there and have seen A LOT of buyers walk away. 

You are right, there are ups and downs to the listings on there, and its unfortunate that BaT is a subpar host for its users, both buying and selling from what I have seen.

Yes, they know problems happen and they seem to ignore them.  They should have a process after a failed sale to contact the next bidder because usually the second highest bid is not far behind.  Or some process to refund the listing fee or relist for free.  Although a relist sometimes doesn't do as well as the original.  I also thought that it was not good that they listed another V70R when mine was halfway through, they say it takes a few days to go live so let the one finish and then list the other or list them side by side.  Although it was a barely maintained one that needed work but "my mechanic says I don't need to do anything" so it was a nice contrast to mine, and mine ended first and sold for significantly more than it did even though it had 80k less miles.

Not a 335i. Single exit exhaust and halogen headlights.

[wasnt m3]

Definitely a 325i.

Yup. I'm pretty sure the 16" wheels confirm it isn't a 330

So true. And the interior would have looked half decent if he blacked out the grey...

Looks good except for maybe some funky panel alignment with the hood and fenders. If it checked out as straight from a shop, this could be a pretty decent one. It certainly has a good color combo, and sounds like it's been maintained.

https://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/cto/d/elgin-1991-bmw-850i-e31-v12-well/6877499103.html

Higher mileage, but well maintained. I really wish he'd left it calypso though.

Yikes.

https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/cto/d/schiller-park-2001-bmw-740i-sport/6877157530.html

If anyone cares to make a bad decision on a 740i M-Sport.

https://chicago.craigslist.org/chc/mcy/d/schaumburg-2000-bmw-740i-sport/6874868393.html

Or a slightly less bad decision on one in a cool color. LOVE how it looks when the light hits it.

There's two other 740 sports for sale in the Chicago area as well, so no lack of options with those haha.

18" style 32's

https://milwaukee.craigslist.org/wto/d/elkhart-lake-bmw-csl-rims/6847362697.html

Cheap set of 3 CSL wheels, good candidates for a wheel table project?

[YoungCR]

Shame on that 8 series, its not hard to find black cars lol

[straight6pwr]

those style 32s are getting around the block. @GunMetalGrey did you sell them to someone from MKE?

That's not the same set. 

I did not sell them in MKE, they went up to MN.

[straight6pwr]

hmm, i see a big tire mounting gouge on one, which i thought there was on my set. coincidence!

You made me double-check, and even though they have super similar marks from mounting (c'mon tire shops!) I feel like the tires debunk the correlation.

I got to drive one of these at the dealer, I wonder what the actual production numbers were for 2011-2013 manual F10’s.
