This can't be right, right?! A 2009 848, only 938 miles, under warranty, being sold by a dealership, for only $8600, and per the post nothing was wrong with it.

Am I reading this right?! Isn't that a ridiculously low price?

Probably repo'd so they just wanted to get their money back.

Not too low if the seller didn't put a reserve on it.... market dictates the price.

8600 is a steal though...

Seller could have also been using another party/id to run up the bid.

I'm still in tears about this one if it's legit. 
I thought about making a bid for kicks, around 9K, but figured no way and didn't look back, but later stumbled upon the link in my cache, only to gasp in horror at the winning bid.
Best part...my better half said "wow, you totally should have bid on that."

She rocks, and I'm a dufus  [bang] wonder who the lucky bastid was that got it.

I would have bid on that! I would then have to sell it to pay for my divorce, but I would have definitely bid.

Contact the dealer and get in line as a second option. [thumbsup]

But, why is divorce so expensive?  ???

Reason divorces are expensive: Women.

Look at womens clothes, less fabric more expensive...
Perfumes, smaller the bottle, the more expensive...
700sqft apt  not enough, needs larger...
Women, can't live with them, can't live without them...
There're exceptions...
