Why would you trade it in for pennies when there are so many people on this forum looking for a car?

It was a up trade, they gave me almost as much they are asking for. It's a dealer that usually just deals with cars that have being modified, so it was way above other dealers offers. It was a fast decisions one of those that you just can't let go by.

The deal is that I invested a lot of money to bring parts for this community and a number of people just gave me a hard time so why would they give me value for my car?
You can see that the car is almost new, I did not want to get offended by low offers.

This is just a choice that I had to take based in the offer received and my experience here.

Kind sad tho

I see where you're coming from. You were raked over the coals for an exceptional (albeit expensive) product by a few cheap-charlies. It can be a thankless profession sometimes.

Anyhow, cheers to you getting your $ out of your car and all the best on your next ride.

Sad to see you go Dio, though i understand the sentiment, i think much of it was a communication breakdown between the people on the forum (myself included). I hope to see you back in another M coupe some time, and we all do appreciate you taking the time and the initiative to accomplish what you did.

I'm sorry you didn't do more market research before developing and eventually releasing your exhaust system. There are some people who gladly pay premium for a superior product, for its quality, durability, and exclusivity. I consider myself one of those. Unfortunately, there is also a group of jackasses like ******ova, who complain about pricing of a product as though someone is raping their families and FORCING them to buy it. You can't market a premium product and not be prepared to deal with the second group's feedback

I'll be releasing a commercial version of my Motorscorpion camera mount, which will retail for about $300, and I KNOW I'll get 10 idiots saying "screw you man, I can build that for $40". Ignoring the months of trial and error, NUMEROUS prototype versions, hundreds of dollars to build those prototypes, and a lot of research.

The thing is that one may make all pay for. So I have rethink the exhaust strategy, I'm building other product now and after I'm done I'm not selling direct, I'm gonna let other company market and sell it for me, probably going to end up doing that with the exhaust as well.

But my car have nothing to do with my intension of producing parts for BMW's it was just something I had to do at the moment and the offer was good. But I miss already
