+++ another bmw ********* +++

3 weeks ago sent for info with CDN price (the seller is in montreal) on a 635csi and recieved 1 pic and the mention "new clucth" with a US price.
To me this ment that the seller was not interested in selling is car so I did not persue.
Yesterday, I recieved an email asking if I was still looking for a 635 from the same seller!
I said yes and sent him the usual questions on the condition of the car i.e. maintenance log, rust, etc...
Is reaply was "I am to anal".
I guess another ********* expecting to sell is car to a blind man!

This is the exact list of item I wanted information on :

MAINTENANCE LOG :

ACCIDENT :

A/C :

BRAKES :

RUST (especialy where the front fender meets the car, looking up from the wheel opening) :

SUSPENSSION :

ENGINE :

RADIATOR :

TRANSMISSION :

GEAR LEAVER BOUSHING (ferm shifter) :

LEATHER :

DASH :

ELECTRICAL :

EXHAUST SYSTEME :

TRUNK :

RUBER SEALS (DOORS ETC..) :

SUNROOF :

THINGS DONE :

THINGS TO DO :


This BMW buying thing is starting to pis me off.

Exactly... or plain stupid!
Is ad as been on the web since febuary
Having "*****ed" about 2 sellers recently, I have to say that most sellers (any make of car) are more than willing to give information but like all advertising, it is never exact

I've got the same treatment from Benz owners, one that had a W210 actually... until I explained that I have a 124 that is in better condition than his (I was trying to bargain the price by pointing out the wear items on his car)

I think its just trying to buy a car in general. Seems over half of the people selling have at least a little something(if not alot something) to hide....
