Why is it that almost every single ad I see for a Bimmer has a mistake in it? Do people not know anything about their cars?

Haha, maybe it is because they sell more Hondas then anything they did not realize they made a typo. Funny though.

The buyer will proudly go home and show off his overpriced car and wonder why the rear tires spin. "But the dealer said it's FWD!" When I was looking for Bimmers, I could never find any info on any of them because people always put the wrong year/model. People will say its a 1985 320is or something, when it didn't come out until 90, etc.

Ya, they all seem to go for good money here. The cheapest one I have seen besides mine is like $8900, for a 525. Good for me, though. I waaayyyy underpaid!:D

Maybe it's a 525ix that's missing the driveshaft?

That's no typo. May not be on any US market cars, but I have personally seen a Canada E34 with tilt and euro dash.

Tilt wheel? You mean the lever on the underside of the steering column that you pull and it moves the steering wheel up and down? I got one of those...:D I hope I got that right, otherwise I'm also a dumbass..

Maybe I'm wrong, but it says 6 cylinder... not "V6".
