'20 GLC300 SUV

I think he threw the AMG tag in there just to get more hits.

Looks like a real (albeit beat to hell) M3.

"Hard to Find" bit is a joke though.

Bmw does have the SMG tranny though. "S" is right next to "A" on the keyboard soooo...... However, I'm not sure if that car has the SMG tranny.

It is a DCT transmission. SMG was no longer available in 2008. My guess is that he wants potential AMG customers to look at his car if they do a "search" using AMG.

Exactly what he said.

This is also a common Ebay practice, which can be really annoying when you are looking for something specific.

Especially when it comes to off lease corporate servers and networking equipment.
