We covered previously how a car YouTuber rescued an abandoned 2008 BMW M6 that was just loaded with problems. It turns out he hadn’t completed the purchase process with the owner, who demanded the car back later. The reason was all thanks to the previous video we showed you.
This Nissan 300ZX pushes more than 1,200 horsepower.
If you didn’t catch the first video, the story is that some rich guy bought the M6 for his daughter, who proceeded to trash it. Badly damaged, including with a window that wouldn’t roll up all the way, it was parked partly underneath a shed’s awning.
But water got inside, filling the passenger-side floorboard with several inches of putrid stuff that just sat for years. Unsurprisingly, the thing was moldier than a cheese factory inside.
Even better, once the YouTuber got the M6 home he was able to read the codes, of which there were literally dozens. If you know anything about these Bimmers, they’re infamous for breaking big and this one likely had multiple pricey issues.
The owner was out of town when the YouTuber picked up the car, so the sale didn’t happen then. Let that be a lesson to you – never be too eager to scoop up a vehicle, no matter how good of a deal it appears to be, that you take it home before the title is handed over.
She later saw the first video and was offended, then proceeded to ghost the YouTuber for weeks, or so he says. Then she asked for the car back. He tried renegotiating the price, but ultimately after a few months they couldn’t come to an agreement.
If you ask us, this YouTuber dodged a lethal bullet and he seems to realize that. The BMW would’ve cost him multiple times what he paid for it to get it running and driving properly again. And we can almost guarantee it would’ve broken again no too long after.
He dropped the money pit back at the same place where he rescued it. We wonder how many more years it will sit and molder.
