Lambo green, mclaren orange, merlin purple, pretty much any old muscle car colors.

I love most pearl/metallic colors period. Metallic black or even brown looks :fuckyeah: on many cars.

You scored a top shelf car for mere hundreds with no down side when the lease expires. You really can't play it much better going into a price fall out. The car is the most gorgeous thing in its price range and reliability has zero fucken impact. :bravo:

Huge metal flakes in vintage muscle cars is amazing. 5/7 when it's pulled off right!

What are we thinking in terms of actual trade in value offered... I am going with 7200-7500 at which point i still think he should take it.
If they know about the sunroof and offered $8500, I think he might actually get it. Car has new tires and brakes, and a borked sunroof.

It'll be a car they fix up for cheap and throw on their Val-used lot for some dudebrah flatbrim vapekid to buy.

ONLY 60,000 MILES, ONE OWNER, CLEAN CARFAX - 10,895

Lololol. Probably the kid who'll buy it will swear from veedubforlyfe and get a wrx or st.

Exactly my point....

Areas that are doing decent are Austin, some places like denver, pretty much the entire west coast, most of the far east coast at/above NY. And parts of florida.... basically look at every blue state... and that's where things are fine.

It is super easy to tell.

The Oktoberfest fuckup and the earth destroyer are on to another life. One will be the love of some high school vapebro, the other will be crushed I think. Funny shit is, the earth destroyer is the one that should be kept on the road, with how much my engine is leaking :lolol:

On a peasant spec 320i... that makes sense... this car meh...

I had the same issue with my E46 M3 also, it was just a great chassis that was WAY under-tire'd

I am thinking they don't want to step on the M3... which has 255s up front and 275s out back. That should be the size on this car.
