Are you guys familiar with this website? Pretty cool and I certainly appreciate it....could be updated more frequently, however I'm sure it's manual which takes some time.

Wonder if site owner is a member here?

Yep, seen it a few times. There's one on there that links to a BaT auction 1M that's currently at 23K US..curious to see what it ends at.

Yeah, I've been watching that ....lol!

It has $50k miles and was part of a "Owener Car Group" where multiple people can use different cars.

I think that freaks people out a bit

Ohh....Also has some surface rust from being up state.

It reminded me of the M Coupe Buyer's Guide, but looked more professional. Turns out it is the same guy: http://www.mcoupebuyersguide.com/about

His original site used to feel a little more homegrown, but looks like the 1M site has been around for ~3 years.

Jon's a good guy; I have had a lot of emails with him over the years, mostly about Z3/Z3M Coupes, but a little on the topic of 1Ms, as well.

When a bad car (rusted, salvage title, wrecked but not obviously in the records, etc.) is for sale, he tries to alert people, although of course he has to be careful about what he says, especially in writing. I got swindled once on a rusted out Z3 coupe that was sold to me as being pristine. If that car comes back up for sale, I'm sure that Jon would try to advise people, maybe subtly, not to buy it.

Z3/Z3M coupes turn over frequently, plus there are a lot more of them, at least in N. America, which is the target audience for these websites. 1M's are much more scarce and don't turn over as rapidly, which makes this type of website harder to run and more difficult to add value with.

It's a good site and I have noticed that he updates it every week.

I wish he would keep the history of sales tho, so we could look back and compare in the future.
