      I am familiar with the seller of that new M3 up. He is pretty solid and goes through the cars throughly before he puts them up for sale.

            Those wheels will get scorched on BAT! I may have to start the demise. . .

              those are functional wheels on a functional car. It is a modified M3 being sold by 1 of 4 dealers that seems to do no wrong, so I think it will be fine. It was in the mid 30s last I checked...

                I think those are OZ superleggera's which were made popular by Tire Rack 15+ years ago. It's at $36K already, with 6 days left? Pretty strong out of the gate.

                  Predictable, the top comment is about the wheels. I don't mind them, between the wheels and tires and the other mods that car looks to have been modified for enjoyment instead of kept original so the resale value is higher and the next owner can autofellate at car shows over his all original nostalgia memento. I'm more interested in the Saratoga behind that M3 though. Not only more fun but a better power to weight ratio as well :nice:

                    Maybe I'm just so used to seeing those kind of wheels on E30's at the track, that they don't really bother me as much. I will say that dealer does bring some interesting cars to the block, and I have talked with him some outside of BAT. He's an enthusiast/car guy who does this on the side. There was one iX touring he had a while back I really liked..

                      Glen Shelly has some amazing cars for sale. Always good stuff.

                      I have to say I’ve never been a fan of any OZ wheels. Maybe they’re too rally for me. Who knows.

                        Any guesses on where that s54 car will land? 17.5 with 4 hours to go...

                          Ok I will play, under 23k. Not sure how bold a prediction that is since it is only 18k with 90 minutes left.

                            If it breaks 23 with the need for paint and A/C I'm going to have a hard time resisting posting mine up there. The interior on that car shows really really well.

                                Hmm, $20k+ not bad for non-working AC and bad paint. If I ever sell mine I should do ok.
