In 1974 I was offered Max Hoffman's weatherbeaten BMW 507 for $5,000. Needed some work. My girlfriend was pressuring me to buy her a new horse, a black thoroughbred. You will know which one I bought when I tell you someone named my purchase "Othello."

I was actually google-stalking his car collection: simply incredible! The pinnacle of my car ownership so far has been a 911 Targa, CLS63 and an E550. Every other month there was a bill for something in my mailbox, not to mention the endless trips to the gas station....premium! Wheels, other mods.....the constant paranoia of something getting damaged/broken......but the rest of the time was blissful! I could only imagine the LIST with cars like Ramhi84 has!!
Any pictures of Othello survive the years?
I was over at my dealership this morning and talked with the GM. He says the problems they are having are more transportation oriented with no truck drivers and no ship crews to move products.
Things are moving but very, very slowly. A lot of S series are also sitting up in the Brunswick VPC and at the port in Germany where your BS seems to be at this point.
The dealership new cars are non existant and lots are essentially empty.
He had no estimate as to when any new cars would start flowing again.

Hopefully we’ll see movement very soon.

Also keep in mind that BS is shipped in a enclosed trucks that can load low profile cars. Not to many of those available.

I’m installing the Supersprint straight through downpipes next week on mine. Removing the catalytic converters. That will fix the sound issue.
I’ve got the Supersprint straight through pipes on my G63’s and they are awesome. Just make sure to check if your vehicle has the GPF’s installed from the factory or not. Highly recommend them: Link to Supersprint exhausts for AMG GT Black series

"Suckers"??
There is a different perception of what $150k means or is for different people.
For someone who wants the car but did not secure the allocation years ago but has large disposable income or assets, a $150k might have the same weight as $150 for most of the people.
They can and do spend a $300k for a flight on a Boeing Business Jet for a couple day trip to London to check out a property someone offered and to them it might be less then a First Class airfare for the rest of us.
Reason they do this is to get eyeballs and people talking. Then someone will make an offer and they'll sell the car. Hence this post proving my point. They know it will never sell for anywhere near that.

Must have struck a nerve?
