For Sale: 2003 BMW 330i ZHP, Mystic/Alcantara, 6 MT, 56K miles, $12k (L.I., NY)

At an independent dealer on Long Island (check for flood damage). Appears to have CWP. At that price/mileage, wouldn't be surprised it it sells today, if not already sold.

Sold by owner and then sold at auction 11/16/2012. I would not be surprised if it had flood damage. Good looking car though. Has tail lights out on both sides...

That car's been listed for sometime now, over a month...steering wheel looks damaged and I think it has some accident history too...

It would be difficult to see the car remain clean title after flooding, but it is possible. It is a damn shame they don't say which auction it was. If it was IAA or Copart, probably flooded. If it was Manheim or another dealer-specific auction, it is probably just fine. Dealers sell cars through auctions all the time.

I see an accident and wheel damage on the car fax. Wouldn't flood show up? If anyone interested I could take a look. I am on Strong Island y'all.

Lol, people finally caught on to title washing? It's so bloody easy, I know so many ways I could do it... thank goodness for carfax to those who are unfamiliar!

I had called the dealer on this one a few weeks back.. Their "internet pricing" is really deceiving. IIRC they "applied" a $2,500 "trade in deposit" on the car, with that taken into account the asking price was close to 15k. that compounded with the accident history and location made me pass on it. They did tell me that none of their cars were damaged by the storm, and that they moved them to a higher lot during the flood.

I say beware. If it were my money, I would look elsewhere. Accident was reported left rear collision but wheel appears broken (airbags? Were they replaced? Tail lights out? Just way too many questions). There's plenty of other ZHPs on the market.
