Some of you now that my Dad and me are in the proccess of creating our dealership.
Gulf Coast Luxury Motors Inc.

So my Dad and me are heading to the Palm Beach Car Auction. Lambos, Ferraris, Bentleys, Jags, AMG's, M's!

There are gonna be plenty of M3's, M5's, and M6's. All unlocked with keys on the front seat.
That means I will be revving some M engines tomorrow!! This will be the first time being in the drivers seat of an M car so I am very excited, even if I don't get to drive it

Just thought I'd share, wil post some pics after the auction!

Best of luck with the new business. Sounds like the dream job for a car aficionado.

I hope that once it's set up you'll have a good stock of BMWs (among other cars) and that forum members will buy cars from it.

Thank you for the kin words Scott. It's a lot of work to get it up and running and me Dad is handling all of the technical stuff. My job is to detail the cars

If you got some good deals, you should let us know.

Sounds like fun. That's really learning the business from the ground up. Your father sounds like a terrific guy. You gonna bring over Anzafin for detailing advice?? There's someone who can detail.

Yea, sometimes the highlight at some of these auctions is an E46. We try to stay away from those.
I don't think watching all these nice cars go by will get boring though

Its not "boring" to me, but it does get kinda tedious after you've been there for 5-6 hours and its still going strong...

Anyway, you should get to bed, cuz you DON'T WANNA BE ALL SLEEPY THERE - I've done that and it was hell!!!
