Anyone in the Seattle area know this car?

http://www.universityaudilynnwood.co...DX9C54DE785441

I've been watching it for a few weeks. My concern is that the Carfax lists the most recent owner as only owning it less than a year. I'd like to know why.

I don't live anywhere close to Seattle, so I would have to either fly out and look or take a chance on it and have it shipped.

Buy my car which is the very similar but a E92 and use the rest of the money to buy a miaita!

Honestly the weather sucks in the NW west(rain) and owning a convertible is only for the die hards.

I don't live anywhere near Seattle. Just found the car there that matches my wish list.

In Indiana, we get a lot of good convertible weather.

There are many owners on this forum bought an M3 and sold it within 1 year. Don't let that scare you, many people like to change every year or so. I personally know someone who bought the car and sold it within 1 month because he wanted the money for a down payment on a house. It wasn't wise decision to buy it in the beginning but life changes can happen at anytime..

Thanks. My first thought with it was he was dumping it due to a mechanical problem.

I will call them next week and see what they say about it.

Literally saw this happen in person at University Audi. Guy came in looking to the test drive the M3 I now own, but came back to the sales guy after peeking inside the car and said "I thought it was a manual." He left with his head down...poor guy

Awh.. :/ Hope he found one!

This is listed at University Audi too. They must really suck or don't know what a manual is.
