Is anyone selling?? Need some help looking!
Hey what's up everyone! I've been looking around for a nice W204 to call mine for a long time now and I finally in a place where there is a chance I can get that to happen! So I thought where else to start then here? I've always been a long time forum reader but really had no reason to actually join and get involved until very recently. So I'm reaching out to any of you wise cats to know if there are any good W204's, especially any 507's <3, out here and where to look because it is the W204 that really strums my heart strings because of it's gorgeous and aggressive looks.
I never really cared for the newer models because I just feel like they might be a little bit softer and not as aggressive as the earlier models imho, but yet again I'm still trying to learn!
I'm curious to see and hear what the community thinks and I'd appreciate any help I may get, thanks!

BTW: Quickflyer, you may very well be legitimate, but many of us have been members here for quite some time, and we need to look out for each others interest. No offense here.

"Good Afternoon Sir!
I was wondering what is the availability of your Magno 507? I've been looking for one for quite some time now and I'm quite serious about taking it off your hands should everything work out. If it's still up for grabs I would love to have a chance to talk to you about it over the phone and ask some questions whenever you are free!
All the best!"

"Good Evening Sir,
I had realized that I never included my phone number is the last message (REDACTED for privacy). My name is E***** and you ever get a chance for a call I would love to talk about your car and get to know more about because you really have quite the beast!"

"Hadam3,
I apologize for seeming to earnest about your vehicle but I simply love it too much. I want to talk to you about your car and I understand you may be busy but I quite literally made a profile on this Forum just so I may have the chance to get to know the car more. Your car has really caught my eye simply because you have everything that I have been searching for in a 507 in such a long time. If you ever get a chance to contact me I would love to hear from you! Give me a quick call at (REDACTED For his privacy) and disregard the previous one because this number is more reachable for me or you may contact me via email at (Redacted for his privacy)
Very Respectfully,
QuickFlyer"

Here is where i finally responded to his messages saying:
Hi QuickFlyer,
Unfortunately, i am not comfortable with negotiating a sale with someone who isn't active on this forum.
Thanks.

Good Afternoon hadam3,
Well sir I can't say that I'm not upset but because of my studies I've never have had time to necessarily hang out in the forums, though I do read alot, but I completely understand sir and don't blame you. If you do happen to have a change of heart sir, I'll never be too far away.
Best Regards!

My response:
Have you not been active in any other car forums? Willing to send me your linkedin? You could very well be legitimate, but the amount of scams going around, i rather lean on the side of caution.
Thanks.

Good Evening hadam3,
If I may be honest sir I've never really have had a reason to be involved in car forums simply because I have never been in a position to buy the quality vehicles that are typically presented on car forums, but that is no longer the case. Attached is my Linkedin and I am a pilot myself, as well as an aspiring officer, so should you have any questions about what I do or what I'm about I would gladly answer anything you throw my way!
(He gave me a linkedin, which was extremely vague)
Very Respectfully
QuickFlyer

Good Morning hadam3,
Sir, I'm just messaging you a quick follow up to get your initial thoughts after I assume you have viewed my linkedin, but I'm sure you can see that is new as well..... Reason being, my father is in the restaurant business and there for I have never had a reason to build a professional network as such because I've always been in the family business. Perhaps I can send you the link to the restaurants website or even facebook? But yet again I also feel like that you have made up your mind at this point and would like to bid you Good Luck with your sale sir and may you find a good and proper home for your beast!
All the best!

QuickFlyer, check out AutoTrader.com! It is this site that is full of W204's. There are 136 up there right now. Just find one you like, pay for a pre-purchase inspection, and buy it. It is that simple. :-D
