To put it in perspective, a nice M1 can be had for $120k.

Hey, let's be charitable, this guy was clearly a do-it-yourself enthusiast.
Likely this was the #1 tool in his toolkit: ![]()

This gives me hope. My car is now worth a lot more than I thought. I've saved every receipt since Day 1. Just have to figure out how to document my hours.

He admits he's got 92k into it (which is highly unlikely.) Even still, I'm not really sure where the extra $150k is justified... Just sheer stupidity or a joke.

I asked if the price was a misprint ($25k vs. $250k)...
"It is not a misprint, Just the interior was $24K. This is a serious collector item. Regards, Koorosh" |

I didn't think it was possible to make a 6 series look silly.
I stand corrected. Tim |

Q: Is this a joke?
A: Nope, It would only look like a joke when it's beyond comprehension, most people laugh and take matters as a joke sometimes when they are no comfortable or do not have enough information to comprehend a situation that they are uninformed about. Regards, Koorosh So there. ![]() |

Yes, while I get a certified check from my bank for $250,000, please install the drivers door lock barrel and re-align doors so they close flush.

I think his girlfriend / wife told him to sell it. He said, fine, but I need to get what I have in it. This way he can placate her by telling her that he is trying to sell it.

Any one of us could have any car our hearts desire for a quarter mill (or in my case, many cars!)
What planet . . . . . . ?
