I live in Seattle and saw this (http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=185265070&dealer_id=56550985&car_year=1999&search_type=used&make=BMW&transmission=&model=BMWMCOUPE&distance=0&address=98007&make2=&advanced=y&certified=&max_mileage=&max_price=20000&min_price=1&end_year=2000&color=YELLOW&start_year=1999&color3=WHITE&drive=&color2=BLUE&isp=y&engine=&doors=&fuel=&lang=en&cardist=2707&LNX=ESTAFSRCHUSDTEXT) on the Autotrader.
Has anyone taken a look at it? I've been in talks with the guy all day, but there's only so much you can know about a car in pictures. Things I'd like to know besides the general condition of the car are the tangibles, like 'how it smells inside' for instance. Or if the leather is still soft. Or if there's a puddle underneath it when it's parked.
Would anyone local be willing to go check it out for me? I'd really appreciate it, and would be happy to buy a beer for anyone who could help me out if I end up flying out there to get it...
If this request is out of line, I understand. I guess this guy has such a busy schedule that he doesn't want to have to take it to a dealer, but would invite a dealer/mechanic to come out to him. Warning sign? I dunno.
Thanks a lot!
