I don't know who is trying to sell that, but a smart seller(ala "Pawn Stars") would just go ahead and shell out to get it painted so they don't lose the extra couple grand.

That's like that Caddy I looked at last week. Wouldn't let me test drive it because it wasn't registered or insured because "well we weren't driving it and had to make a decision there about the cost of insurance blah blah blah."

Trying to sell a car you claim is running? Fork out $85 for a registration renewal or better yet just keep the reg you have on it and take the hit for $50-$100 a month for insurance for a couple months while people look at it. Because who the gently caress is gonna pay thousands for a car they can't drive beforehand? :colbert:

protip: If you're looking for a BMW stateside and happen to be East Coast(ish) scroll through the craigslists for South Carolina - there's that BMW factory in Spartanburg. BMW's here are like Honda Accords and Toyota Camry's elsewhere. Spartanburg's where the plant is, but Columbia and Charleston are probably the most populous areas and hence will give the most returns when searching for "bmw".

Charleston's also got a pretty decent used car market; I think it might be because its a big port town and a lot of imports that cross the atlantic get off loaded here. There's a maserati dealership (which I've never seen one of before), Porsche, mitsubishi, jaguar, land rover, vw, all sorts of poo poo. Plenty of Kia and Hyundai lots, but those I tend to speed up past when I'm driving by, unlike some of the others.

edit: and Merc's... goddamn there're a lot of mercs. There's a yellow slk I drool over every time I see it in its used car lot, which happens to be right next to tractor supply.

Buy this or I'll hate you forever! You should see what kinda Caddy $4000 gets you in the NE (hint: crap). Going to look at a 65 DeVille, maybe this w/e, but I would kill for a Fleetwood.

Looking at that one interior pic, am I right in seeing that it has no divider? In which case it may not be a limo, just a personal sedan (that seats 9)--which is even cooler! If it's all leather interior (not cloth in the back and leather in the front) that's another indicator it wasn't a factory limo.

I would have assumed that it was running fine before the starter gave out, but if he doesn't know how or can't get the starter replaced, it's a fair bet he never bothered with any of the SHO specific maintenance either.

The SHO was a great car to drive but it was a pain in the rear end to own. The starter replacement wasn't too bad when I replaced mine but I would not call it a reliable vehicle, especially since the previous owner had never washed the Chicago salt off in the winter. If I had a bigger garage I would buy one for that price even though it would be a permanent project car.
