My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)

I think once I'm ready to get me a real expensive ride (like in a 100 years

), I'll prolly start with the AM - what a beautiful car!

Krozi, thanks for sharing

I know I've asked before but where the hell do all these cars come from? Are they stolen recovered cars or what.

There are thousands of lease returns. The dealer can't re-sell every single lease return. They send 90% of the lease returns to the auctions.
Also repos and some owner cars.

I'll ask my Dad and maybe we could work out a deal for 5series.NET members that have above a certain amount of posts.

It won't be a lot though, since the profit margin on some of these cars can be very slim. We are also a brokerage so if you are interested in a car, you can put down a deposit and we can get you that car.

THIS should give you guys an idea of the profits that can be made in this business

Same color, same year, same mileage, same body, almost identical cars, but a $60,800 price tag compared to $49,800 at the auction. That's $11,000 of profit!

One of our customers owns a used car lot so he goes to auctions very often. He bought himself a clean title 645 for $14000!

Good taste. Now that is a car that will garner attention anywhere you go and be parked out front by the valets.

My dream car, price is object, is still Ferrari. A 599 would look good in my garage.
