I thought the exact same thing. Talk about doing a disservice to the car.....or maybe the buyer!

Wow that's a rough one. Someone will overpay for it most likely.

Bad automotive photos when selling a car are a trigger for me lol.

I thought to myself if there's a 5 in front of that price I'd spit up my drink. Long behold, there is a 5 in front of the asking price on their website. Woof.

I don't understand how BAT accepts an ad like this- this ad reminds me of a craigslist ad, no video, no in depth photos, no history on service, no details no nothing..this is a $40,000 max car to someone like me - and expect to spend $10,000 on it to bring it back to market (assuming the structure is good and paint is acceptable) How a seller can make an ad so vague on BAT is just beyond me..

I don't know, man. I think that distinction may go to Tarek.

What don't you understand ?? You really think BAT is looking out for the buyer, vetting each car, it's condition and the seller ? LOL...Of course it's a $40k car to "someone like you"...

Why is it when I make a valid point, you resort to name calling and personal insults ??? And then accuse me of "blowing a fuse" ???

It's pretty clear you are a BAT fanboy...evidenced by your posts to those of us who see BAT for what it is....or more importantly, what it has become. A place for people like you to flip cars. Yet, just now you complain about BAT saying you can't believe they'd allow a "Craigslist" type auction to take place. Hence my confusion as to why you don't understand their true motive(s) and why you seem to bite the hand that feeds you. They are not looking out for the buyer, they're looking out for their bottom line. Just like you....that's why you bid it to ~$36k then asked if you could retract your bid after learning of the paint condition. LOL

not even a new cell phone, possibly Nokia. I inquired about this car before and couldn’t get a straight answer from the seller about the car, the interior looks pretty worn for the miles too, I don’t trust these odometers.

Lorenzoh Please do not start another pissing match in this thread. You are not making any sense, are you implying that people who sell their cars on Bat are now to be viewed negatively? Tarek brings some great cars to BaT and many off BaT in both scenarios he makes great transparent ads we all enjoy, just compare the c4 posted today by a clueless seller and Tarek’s car from last week.

@tarek307 ignore this troller it is apparent something is wrong with this guy as each time you post he makes a snarky hateful reply back. Infatuation, jealousy just take it as a compliment, whenever you are successful there will be haters.

where are the moderators? Lorenzoh was banned from BaT for a reason.

PMs have been sent. I think everyone has said their piece; time to move onto some more positive posts.

I just saw this thing. I have see plenty of E30 318s and 325s recently with less wear and tear on the steering wheel. Who knows what’s the story, maybe the owner parked it in the sun one too many time.
Rear bumper has some scratches on the left side. Front bumper: looks like someone drove over something or parked it right on top of cement wheel stopper-the grill looks bent or maybe it’s the angle of the pic.
Thnks for looking out
