    Just a Warning



    Contacted about this car and I am receiving suspicion, He doesn't want to give me the VIN for Carfax after I asked perfectly reasonable questions and gave my phone number that I'm a Serious buyer.

    Me:
    I interested in your BMW, mind giving me the vin and answering a few questions?

    -dent on hood?
    -any rust?
    -accidents?
    -why are you selling?
    -idles normally?
    -clear coat intact?

    I'm sure I can work up a few more but let me know!
    Him:
    No on the Vin, quarter size dent on the hood, there is a little rust under car where battery sits, nothing major for a car that's almost 25 yrs. old other than that car is as straight as can be. No accidents, clean title, I do not drive the car and need the room for my E36,I have a bunch of emails on the car so if you are interested please leave your # and I will answer all your questions. But seriously the car speaks for itself and for the price I'm asking a person cant go wrong, there is a red (is) on craigslist that is bad ass for under 8000 other than that ?????? it's pretty slim pickings out there, Thank you for your interest.
    Me:
    I'll leave a number because I am serious but we will get nowhere if you are not going to give me the vin to carfax it...

    Will

    XXXXXXXXXX
    Not going to happen sorry, You know there is still such a thing as honesty in this world, I have a report and it is clean
    I also have a title that ***'s not say salvage!!!!! there was a time I believe someone changed the cluster because they did not know that the gears can be replaed. other than that if you dont think we will get anywhere by simply talking about the car, then well my car is not for you.
    Me:
    Well glws, if you were honest and had nothing to hide you would give me the Vin so I can run it and confirm.
    Him:
    Good luck to u too!!!!!!
    Just a friendly buyer beware of the car, If he was honest he wouldn't have anything to hide and would gladly give me the VIN.

    Please tell me this isn't one of you guys :/

          Probably something up with the Carfax and he doesn't want people knowing.

              The point is I want others to know he has something to hide.

                            To be honest, I feel like he has probably heard some dumb horror story about someone getting their car stolen or something after giving out a vin. I think other than the vin deal, he's being pretty straight forward.

                            OP, what I would do if I were you, is find a member in SD and ask them to go look at the car. Have the person get the vin and report back to you.

                              It's not worth the trouble Imo.
