    My observation on bidders like Ed is this, they bid to drive the value up with zero intent of owning and honestly bloat the values. They justify it however they want, but you’re creating a false market…which leads to large swings in market values that causes financial instability. My suggestion, STOP IT! Bid on what you intend on buying, stop screwing others by driving up the price.

    • @bwofficial1776

      Thing you’ve got to remember about Ed is that he is a sleazy used car salesman. Charming, witty, personable, and very likeable, and his job is to extract as much money as possible from the people he deals with. Great guy to talk to or have a beer with as long as you remember his ultimate goal is to buy and sell cars with as much profit for himself as possible.🤷 It’s the American way.

I used to live 5mins from Cats Exotics (Lynnwood,WA) it’s his side hustle exotic car dealership, his main job was he ones like a fire safety company called FPI. I’ve seen like a couple Murciélago SVs with the manuel and SV with out the wing. He had Koenigsegg CCX, a Vector, A Diablo with an American flag on it, OH he had Minardi Lamborghini F1 car a 1 point for sale. So if this is the only blue gated Murciélago than I’ve seen this car multiple times.
    I’ve seen Mr. Cats a couple times at exotic car show we have in Redmond, WA close to the Microsoft HQ and always brings really cool cars.

      Nothing air-cooled from Porsche is cheap anymore, except maybe 914s, and you'd have to 6-cyl swap to bring bigger money (which is expensive now because the air-cooled 6es are also very high dollar items). Even the front-engine water-cooled transaxle cars are appreciating in price for the moderate and nicer ones. I don't like to be a "negative Nancy" but given the current market, it's going to be very difficult to use a Porsche as the starting point. Maybe as a mid-point it would work better.

    I bought a motorcycle on Ebay, I called the finance office of the dealership and settled. Turns out they listed it for $12k when they wanted to list it for $16.5K. They refused to release the bike. In fact they stopped taking my calls. The finance manager called me and asked how I was enjoying the bike. I explained to him what is happening. Two hours later the finance manager called me back, they are shipping the motorcycle immediately. By this time I was days away from deploying over seas. I got the bike just in time to put it in storage. I had to wait 9 months to get to ride it. My auction site story.

    I liked how he was trying to replace the Mercy with a responsible car. Only to buy another Mercy.

    Congrats on the purchase! I had the exact same experience with a C&B purchase recently also, albeit at a tiny fraction of the price. Didn’t expect to win, then I did. Still trying to figure out what to do with this car I bought lol.

    I passed you in traffic i was on my way to look at a car with my buddy and passed you going the opposite way right before your side went down to one lane because of the flooded highway

    700k sounds outrageously high no?

    Of course it was Ed Bolian who bought that Murci that Strad was talking about honestly it couldn't have been anyone else

    I suspect in a few years, Ed will end up owning every manual LP640 on the planet.
