I am the only one that doesn't understand this? Why go to different local places with the same people that bolted on a set of coilovers and wheels and then plasters crooked "Built not Bought" stickers everywhere.
pretty much this. It's a highly unfortunate circumstance of "the car scene'. Travel for a couple bigger car shows is one thing, but this is why I typically only frequent Cars and Coffee in Lake Mills - it's an excuse to force myself to take time out to meet up with friends particularly in the BMW community who I don't otherwise get a chance to see because running 2 businesses and having kids takes a lot of time. It's also why I gave up on major car build projects - the time I do have to devote to cars is time I want to just spend with like-minded enthusiasts. I can't see myself going around to other random gatherings with chumps who don't know any better, or much at all about cars for that matter.
I've heard nothing but bad things about all the other local "car shows" or "cars and coffee" meetups where it's literally just a bunch of Built not Bought kids who think building something means slapping WCEC stickers on when they get a set of $300 coilovers with cut springs and spray painted wheels.

The weekly "Brew City Cruise Night" car shows in Mequon are actually pretty good as far as knowledgeable car people and quality cars to check out. A few years ago there wasn't any of the wcec crap... there is now but thankfully it isn't overrunning the show, maybe 30% of the cars tops.

that is true, I remember going to a BCC event and it was pretty legit - the riff-raff who did show up, ended up getting shuffled off to the side where they couldn't cause any harm. They run a relatively tight ship. I unfortunately missed the BMW day in 2016 but I will probably go this year.

Just saw this and wanted to say this is why I look forward to more meets with you guys. You were by far the friendliest group I met up with last year, the WI car scene needs more of that.
On another note, this came up on my phone today. Are they really going for this much now?

For a CSL, yes. That's a really rare limited region release car. The only e46 that would fetch more would be a GTR.

That seams really fair.
Sweet, but at that price they might as well not even listed it.

I don't understand people that put cars up for $16k and put a sentence or two about the car.
Unless you have 20 pictures (which at that price you should) you need words to validate the price. -
