I knew you were going to say that

E36 M3 sedan with 40,000miles for $29,900?

LoL I head stories of them besting previously accepted offers by private sellers only for the person originally coming to pick up the car finding out that it was sold to someone else (Enthusiast)

Then they give it a 'service'

Lol yeah I hate them, which is funny, because if anything it benefits me, already being an owner of a low milage rare colour M car. I just don't like people profiting off of doing nothing, and claiming that they are providing you a "service" and taking advantage of the less knowledgable. I know thats just what capitalism is, but if I had my way the world would be much more of a socialist car community, where everyone has their realistic dream car and we all drive unlimited track days without voiding our insurance, but I'm trailing off into my dream land here.
I edited my earlier post to be a little less spazzy and a bit more informative, but I really do fucking hate them.

It is true that Enthusiast auto has some nice cars for sale but you will pay the pretty premium for these cars , better off finding a car forum that have cars for sale and are religiously maintained by enthusiast.

1998 Renntech SL74, rare 1 of 27 made
Damn I am so surprised to see this for sale due to the rarity, they only made 27 of these.
Super rare, and a sweet car and I think it is a good price.

I can tell it's a JDM import because of the crooked license plate, and the mileage. And the fact that it's a rare Racing Dynamics version. Japan always got rare German cars, like RDs, Alpina, and AMGs. My guess is the guy got it cheap from an auction, thought he could fix it here and flip it, but bit off more what he could chew.

I emailed the guy to find out more, we'll see if he gets back to me...
So the guy got back to me:

"Headliner sagging, some clearcoat peeling on the horizontal surfaces, A/C needs recharge, I can be reached @ 604-XXX-XXXX to discuss."

Those things he mentioned are pretty minor considering I expected issues with the V12. But he did say "call to discuss" so there might be more issues.

Would be sweet to add to a big garage collection! Someone go check it out!

Would be so badass to convert this to manual...

Just make sure to check the ctrl button option or every pic your mouse hovers over will get enlarged, which can be annoying.

Stop complaining about your car appreciating Sometimes, I really do wish the demand for my car increases....

But you are right, as car enthusiasts we can't help but call guys like them on their bs overpriced collector cars.

I know the car, but more importantly the owner, quite well. Very trustworthy guy, and the car is incredible. Too bad about the door strap though.
