I saw this today on craigslist and thought I would share it. Not often one sees an 850R with 82,000 miles.

Wonder what it looks like close up. Using a little imagination, looks like salt residue underneath and on the tires. City living, and Illinois yet. Wear and tear effect make the mileage irrelevant, sadly, assuming miles are accurate to begin with. Like buying a NYC vehicle, where 50k miles are equivalent to 120k miles on a SoCal car.

My little brother (Diesel-tech mechanic in Chicago area) was going to buy a car from that dealer a few months back, he ended up walking away because of some crazy hidden fees in the paperwork. Something like 40% compound interest on cars not immediately paid for in full.

These kind of dealerships don't get the cherry wholesale cars - those get picked off by the good people in the trade.
