Trying to figure out if this is a real dealership

Since my original post was deleted before I could read any of the numerous responses, I'm gonna repost here. Saw this sweet M3 at a ridiculously low price. Trying to figure out if the dealership or even car exist?

I've seen this car before for sale and at a couple of meets. I didn't bother to read the add, but it's priced ridiculously low from the last time I've seen this car up for sale. I has an ESS supercharger kit on it and as far as I can tell from the pics it still does. But honestly it seems like a to good to be true car at this price for those mods, year, and mileage something has to be wrong with the car.

Edit: I'd be leery about this dealership after looking at their inventory a lot of their cars are priced at the too good to be true price. More than likely rebuilt or salvaged titles. The have a 2012 Boss 302 laguna seca addition with 15k miles for $32k. Yeah that's not shady.

When I emailed them about the 2011 e93 m3 vert with DCT for $40,000, they said it had a clear title and I could check it out any time! That' a great deal if this company exists!

Something super shady about this place. Look though their inventory, photos are all taken by different people and the cars are all in different spots, dealer vanity plates are all blacked out. You can tell just by looking at the nav screens... Lexus in FL, M3 in CA, another M3 in TX, Infiniti in NC, X5 in IL etc.. looks like they are just stealing other dealers photos. This reeks of scam

when i was in the market to buy my e90 i saw a CL ad for a 2010 e90 328i which was priced about 5k lower than all the other ads and it had almost every package available, I went to go check it out. The dealer told me they specialize in buying stolen cars that have been given a salvage title because they were stolen for more than a month. I walked out immediately. I highly suggest you make sure they arent running the same kind of deal.

I suspect that particular dealer was buying vehicles at auction, after they were recovered from being stolen, which would also explain the salvage titles.

Let me put it this way, my company blocks access to various sites, most are for the stand stuff like xxx rate and things that offend the ladies. They also block sites which they are suspicious of or they found not to be valid site and could be loaded with viruses and such. That site is blocked by my company, you decide is it xxx stuff will your dick fall off from what you can catch there.

When a car is stolen, after a month its considered salvaged to the insurance and car fax. The owner has the option to keep or sell it. If they dont want the car, it goes to insurance which puts it in an auction. Those cars are sold as is to people like this dealer. They then take it to their own mechanic and get the car checked out. Thats why a lot of their cars are so low in price. Its extremely shady
