Could someone in the Burbank, Ca area do me a favor?
Hey everyone,

I am looking to buy a car in the Burbank, CA area. Could someone take a look at it before I fly all the way out there and take a 2000 mile drive back, and let me know about the cosmetic and mechanical condition? I'll compensate you for your time and help

Send me a PM if you can help!!

Thanks a lot!
Aleks

What car are you buying? If its an E55 I've probably driven it. I test drove every local E55 before I pulled the trigger on the one I have now. I live not too far away, hit me up and we can arrange something... 310-600-5044

Ok then, sorry to both of you. I thought the dude was trying to be an ..., that is the problem with posting online, subtle nuances are often missed, unless you are in on it. Peace.

E55 w/ goods, Z32 Project underway
Which listing is the car? I drove a few a while back in Burbank and both looked good on paper but were tore up in person-both lower mileage examples. Both silver.
Post a link and I will let you know if it is one I'm familiar with.

I live here next door to Burbank.

If so I can stop by and check it out. PM me if you would like me to check it out for you.

Will someone just tell Aleks to walk away from this car for God's sake.

I don't know how many times this guy has to get burned before he starts to listen to people.

I'm also close to Burbank & would gladly check it out...buuuut apparently the car is in Glendale.

BTW the car certainly isn't "driving ms. daisey" as evidenced by the whopping 5.2mpg indicated...
