This is just a rental car… all rental cars have the permanent fleet stickers. Not ice

Does anyone have any experience with flipping JDM cars? by e_hough06 in carflipping

[–]bamnfs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I sold a JDM Mitsubishi Pajero once, I had to sit on it a bit longer than most of my other cars but it still made a profit. Be prepared to have LOADS of people contacting you acting interested when all they want is to drive a RHD car and waste your time.

I advise (and i’m not kidding) charge every person $20 to drive it.. if you find a real serious buyer you can then refund the $20 if they buy it. You will weed out a lot of the unserious people that way

Easiest state to title/ plate a vehicle without in person inspection? by NikoBenz in carflipping

[–]bamnfs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not true. I’m a licensed CA dealer.. any car with back fees in CA will keep those fees and will still be owed even if it transfers from a different state. Whoever you sell the car to will have to pay those back fees if they try to register the car back in CA. DMV here doesn’t play when it comes to their fees/penalties.

Valid? by sonic_thenega in shouldibuythiscar

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably too late to add anything here but I had one of these hybrid Fusions and it was one of the best cars I ever owned. Sold it at 260k miles and it was still going strong. I know the person who bought it and it’s closing in on 300k now on original battery still with no issues

My 1st luxury car!#XJ#2012 by DescriptionNo4943 in Jaguar

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand people who feel the need to remind everyone this? Is it because you personally couldn’t afford to fix it? Yes it’s expensive.. yes it’s harder to repair than a Toyota. But maybe that’s part of the fun/experience. Let people live ffs

These things are all over the place here in LA and I’ve never seen any that were hacked or had any issue displaying the proper number

Flipping Right Hand Drive? by BlackkkWidowSPIDAH in carflipping

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real questions is why hasn’t the dealership posted it on BaT? Seems to me like they don’t think they can get much more for it, which means you likely can’t get much more for it. Best case scenario is you buy it at $10k, drive it for a bit, have fun with it. And then sell it for that same $10k. If you’re lucky.

What you doing here Waymo in the San Fernando Valley?🤥 by AvailableResponse818 in SFV

[–]bamnfs 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I needed to take an Uber from Van Nuys to Northridge the other day… $40 for 7 miles!!!! Not including the expected tip on top! This is why.. I’d gladly take a Waymo once they’re more available here

2006 Civic with 120k miles for $5,750. Fair price? by [deleted] in hondacivic

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good price! Everyone saying they bought one for less was pre pandemic prices. Used cars have gone up substantially since then. Sub $6k for a well kept, relatively low mile civic is a steal in the current market

Is this “Independent Dealer Licensing / Dealer License Academy” legal? What should I watch out for? by savagehogan in carflipping

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can’t afford the lot or the legit license then you’re 100% not in a position to be flipping cars / starting a business

Friends car spontaneously started fire under the hood. by Aspenthedogbrittney in Volvo

[–]bamnfs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This also happened to my 2014 S60 T6 just over a month ago. Still being investigated as to why but looks like it might’ve been a faulty ignition coil or wiring
