Me neither. I do have a problem with flipper/dealers that buy a car, mark it up a ton and try to pass off obvious issues etc. There a bunch of these types out there in the air-cooled market unfortunately.

I called that LIAR. now that's not cool...

I made $5000 on my 924S after driving it about six months. Am I a flipper?

absolutely that I agree with

I have many friends that buy and flip or sell cars on consignment. The good ones serve a purpose there are a number of people who just want the car gone or don't want the hassle of searching for what they want and can afford to pay a premium for a nice car.

There are unscrupulous flippers just as there are sellers of cars they have owned for a long time. To separate flippers out would be unfair. If you don't educate yourself about these cars you get what you deserve.

I would flip cars myself it is easy enough to do although I have one problem. Once I fix a car to my level of satisfaction I have a hard time selling it or any of the cars I own.

Instead I just like to fix them for others. Working on them and making them right is very rewarding.
