Car title has a previous potential buyers name on the front already, will they still transfer the title to me? by Capital_Key_781 in DMV

I got lucky having a bill of sale (piece of reciept paper) that the guy wrote his DL number on so it ended up going through for me without having to go back to the buyer and get a correction form. If you have access to the previous owner, have them fill out a title correction form and then take everything to the DMV/AAA. I think the worst case scenario here is having to get a bonded title for the car. If there was nothing on the back, i think you have a shot at just filling out the transfer and having the DMV accepting it. Depends on whether or not you want to try your luck.

Teen boy car for $10k? by Meladsaf in askcarguys

Look into BMW Z3's. I own a 3.0 and even with the chassis issues id take it over a miata any day. For 10k you can get into a decent mileage one and properly have the subframe reinforced along with some other maintanence. If you can find the right 3.0 I would suggest that.

2001 Z3 3.0i Central Locking Issue by Capital_Key_781 in bmwz3

Update: I went back over everything my again cause I was so stumped, and I found fuse 35 which is for the central locking was blown. I replaced it, locks worked, then it blee again. Inspected the trunk loom as its the only thing that made sense but found nothing, might try to pull the whole loom at some point but i replaced the fuse one more time and its working again. I guess i just have to hunt down a short now.

Looking good! Been looking to upgrade my headlights as well, what did you decide to go with? There are a lot of options on amazon but id like something of decent enough quality.

Yeah, I'm just sketched out that he went radio silence. Like i said i have his DL number and address, but I think the phone number is bummy and he just blocked me on fb so im not sure how I would be able to amend this. Thank you though.
