Competition C · 01-14-2015, 11:32 AM

Thank you in advance
- I have seen this beauty for sale for about three months now. I don't want to pull the trigger yet since I have zero knowledge on bmw. I have been lurking here HEAVY using search .... Just want to hear thoughts and comments on this year and package

I have one three year old son......the wife don't mind a two door since he can now fit in a booster seat

You are lucky to have a wife who approved you to pick up a vert/coupe

The price is very low compared to 2011 with this mileage. Are you sure there is no issue on the car or accidents?

The ad talks about the CARFAX but doesn't show it. Best take a look at that first.
Probably a car bought at auction. If so, approach with caution.
Know the in service date and if it has any BMW warranty left.
What are they asking for it?

Man talk about a rip off job! Seller says clean car fax!

Bimmer-M3 how did you check the title status from the vin? That could come in handy if publicly available.

Easy...just copy the VIN and google search it....it showed up in auction with salvage title..I usually do this when I see a car priced way lower than market...and most of the time my guess for a car priced that low is right

Sold at auction 12/30/14

just be careful OP,

xcsgenius · 02-09-2015, 09:12 PM

something is fishy...I searched last week on this car it shown up with salvage title and reported at auction. Now when I do the search, I cannot find it.

Is it possible to clear the title on carfax?

That is shady...I did not think it's possible to clear a title once it was salvaged. Can anybody that knows better shed some light on this?

Are you sure..I believe nowadays if you search basically any vin for any car the vin will link to some salvage auction. It's a bit tricky but if you dig deeper you'll realize that the vin has nothing to do with these salvage auctions

Personally, i would be leery of any dealer called 'xtreme auto'. Just sounds sketchy.
