I agree. Lol. His reserve is probably in the low 50’K. Just wants the tax and license back as well. Probably got the car for MSRP anything over what he paid is a profit. Will be interesting as my car is around the same # is his. Dr Evil asked me how much I want for mine ? I said, 100 gagillion $$$$$. Lol. Time to buy a ZO6 ? Just Kidding,, only way I would part with my car is if I pass away or can’t drive a stick anymore because of my left hip. Have Screws, pins and a plate holding it together, but was told I will need major surgery to fix it. I’m holding off because I love my car too much.I hope it sells for 100k. I only say that cause I already have mine!
Hell I can't even go buy a nice pair of shoes because these damn resellers buy them all up when something good drops. It took me a year to get a PS5 for regular price also lmao.Anyone notice that the BAT comment section only shows one side of the argument towards flippers? It seems like anyone who is for flippers is allowed to comment but anyone who is against flippers either isn’t allowed to comment or is flagged.
Btw the reason people don’t like flippers is because they make a commodity out of something that was meant to be fun. The same thing goes for Xbox and PS5’s.
They typically argue that no one complains about GT4RS, Urus, or Hummer EV flippers. But the facts are those vehicles are in a different price bracket and that matters. You’re probably making at least 500k a year with those cars. If that person doesn’t get their 300k supercar, no one feels bad. The same applies to someone’s mortgage budget. If rates rise and people can now afford 20% less than in the past well the guy looking at the million dollar home, now is forced to a 800k home….poor him…
Whereas if someone looking for a 200k home is forced to shop 20% less in the $160k range well that will drastically reduce what they get, if they can get can anything at all.
The facts are the richer you get the less pity you receive and rightfully so. If you want to be a scalper/flipper, and call it capitalism then do so. Just don’t expect those suffering the effects to praise you.
This is the equivalent of a person running bots on Footlocker's site and buying Travis Scott Air Jordan 1s only to try and resell them for a profit. Except Footlocker can't markup the price of a sneaker to $1500 just because that's what a bunch of resellers want. But dealers can with cars. And can do it legally (unfortunately). Which ends up screwing both resellers and the awesome enthusiasts in this forum. It starts from the top. And unless there are any crazy billionaire lobbyists in here that are going to use their money to influence laws being changed, nothing's going to change.Hell I can't even go buy a nice pair of shoes because these damn resellers buy them all up when something good drops.

People most definitely are complaining about the people who flip those cars. With Porsche, its been an issue with their GT cars even before the COVID shortages. Even if you have money getting a GT4RS is not easy, and Porsche plays the same BS that all other dealerships play when it comes to their GT cars.Anyone notice that the BAT comment section only shows one side of the argument towards flippers?

I would like to agree. I'm not able to afford those kinds of cars so I can't even look in that direction. But I find it hard to believe that you can find a European sports car for MSRP to match the common ADM of this car in the same likelihood of getting such a deal. I feel you're more likely to find an FL5 for MSRP than a BMW M4.There still are people that complain about the people who flip those cars.

Oh I know. I autocross with the local Porsche Club. There’s actually a lot of debate even between them about prices.People most definitely are complaining about the people who flip those cars.

Eh it depends like always. But the typical BMW owner especially the M4, will have one BMW dealer that they deal with and will move between cars quite frequently. This causes them to have a relationship with said dealer and makes the dealer more likely to sell at MSRP.I would like to agree.
