Grading on a curve, I think.

And they never recovered the cost of the Xpel. Does Xpel even make a film that matches the "Frozen" BMW paint surface? I never understood the desire of a paint that looks like the manufacturer forgot to apply the clearcoat in the paint shop. And in this case it looks like primer. My opinion on the car - Ugly from beaver to butt. So even more than "butt ugly". At least 2 bidders were on it since it got 11 bids in total. The winning bidder is also chasing a second identical one that was also Xpel'd and has 69 miles on it. WTF are these buy-and-flip people thinking? This second one is listed as "re-acquired by the selling dealer" - apparently its buyer came to their senses. |

That CSL is hideous. I cannot believe all that tacky stuff is from the factory.

Will keep the orig E46 CSL prices pumped up. So yay for those people. CSL plus automatic transmission is very difficult to take seriously. I know. BMW certainly tries. But this is just an el cheapo solution. They’re no better than GM for making these decisions.

Guys, I’m not seeing the softening in prices. For 992 S cars (manual) or for 992 GT3 cars —
Tell me when this is happening, again?

This thread is about $10-50,000 cars, not $200,000+ cars
