    Default Be careful when selling a used car.....

    If you are going to curb your used car on public property, make sure that it is in the right spot where it is highly visible 24/7. The owner of this BMW was't so lucky. I've seen this car on the way home for the past few weeks. Today, I had to rush home from work for something and saw this as I passed by. I couldn't resist grabbing the camera and taking a few shots on the way back......

    i have always thought about that and how people just leave their cars for sale anywhere, no idea why someone would do that with an m3 and expect it to be magically protected. owned i guess

    pwned for sure.

    I know that road is busy during the day, but I'd suspect that at 2-3am it'd be quite dead.

    yeah, sucks. but kind of dumb to be leaving a car like that out there. 10 year old rusty minivan, maybe. new m3 = bad idea.

    it almost serves him right for doing it if you ask my opinion. having vehicles laying around on the side of roads everywhere makes me feel like i live in Compton.

    I really do feel kind of bad for the owner, but at the same time a big part of me can't help but laugh.
