Except everyone once in a while they get some loser guest, like the wannabe "baby driver" kid who can't drive worth a crap. Dude lost control of a whopping 180hp BRZ going straight at a stoplight, also admitted to wearing oakley sunglasses (puke) while doing 100mph+ in a residential zone, getting punched in the face for it and then tattling and calling the cops on the guy. He talked like he wanted to be Ed Bolian but only if he was a huge douchebag and had a personality that made you want to bully the crap out of him. Had mommy and daddy buy him 5 cars by the time he was 21 yet was preaching "be happy with where you're at".. Yet he'd chane cars every time he realized he couldnt fckn drive. I couldn't stand that kid..

[@EdBolian]

Thanks everyone for watching. Certainly not a video I expected to make but it has been an interesting catch phrase to develop. Glad everyone is enjoying it.

[@MrGetBad4u]

Thanks for sharing with us, Ed. Enjoyed listing to your strategies. Pointed out a lot of good points when buying or selling a car. I found myself in a similar situation with someone a few weeks ago. Was looking at a Lotus Exige. He listed it for $30,000 with 80k miles on it. But CarFax was showing me the body had 149,000 miles on it but the engine only had 80k miles. That was a red flag. Then he had some scuffs in the front as most Lotus' have. The one part of the door handle was cracked on the inside. There were a few things wrong. I made an offer for $25,000 at fair trade value and he got pretty pissed with me. Told me to stop wasting his time and let me have it. But I am glad I didn't buy it come to think of it. Something didn't seem right when he wasn't up front with how many miles were on the body. I had to dig that info out of the seller. I did point out the issues with the car, how much it would cost to fix but he still got upset when I "Low-balled" him in which I thought was a fair value for what that car had. But there are other cars out there. I just told him to have a nice day and move on because I know there were will be more deals. Love your videos. How does one get a chance to come onto the channel and tell some stories?

[@byronjeffries9754]

dapz325 I’m no car sales man but I successfully flipped a few cars in my time. Organising a Pre purchase inspection scares them because they might find something and it takes a considerable amount of time to drop the car in and some people ask the owner to pay for the ppi , the type of people you are going to get a deal with are people who want the car gone with at least trouble as possible, this means you go in and say you will be giving them no trouble but this and this needs work so I can only pay you so much . You won’t find everything wrong but if you are reasonably mechanically minded you will pick up on most obvious problems that will inhibit you when reselling the car. I delt with mostly very low value cars so most of my money was made just cleaning and posting a good description & photos when reselling. Often making $500 to $800 on a car

[@josephknotts8618]

@@byronjeffries9754 I've just got into the flipping game and in my area ppl don't have a lot of money so I buy cheaper cars I like buying ones that the motor is trash or it needs a transmission.

Everything Ed says here is gold. My last car I bought for $2k about 6 years ago using just these types of tactics, fixed it up, and drove it trouble free since.

People always ask me how I find good such good deals, my advice is you have to look like it's your job, you should be checking the marketplaces 2 or 3 times a day, because deals don't last, and 2 you will rarely find exactly what you're looking for, but you can usually find something good while you're looking.

He has a point, I used the same concept when buying my 09 335i. Fully loaded, xDrive, 6speed for 13.5k CAD, when other listings with similar or higher kms were at 17k-19k. I went in with knowledge of the car, explained the turbo wastegate rattle failure, fuel pump, injectors, leaky gaskets, and ultimately got a steal on the car by negotiating quick and paying full in cash.

[@brandoncaldwell95]

The only ever car ive bought and sold in the past 5 years, ive made money on. 1982 Dodge D150 318 stepside. My neighbor was selling it due to health issues that needed the funding and not being able to solve its issues. I bought it for 2k. Was estatic as i always wanted it. Fixed the valve cover leaks, new plugs and wires, replaced the charging system, and fix the front end with new shocks as they were still the orginials. Put new door seals on, to stop a small leak. The only actual issue was the truck ran, but didnt hold its charge. With the old school tricks, i found it to be a bundle mess right down the line of positive terminal. Fix that, best truck ive ever known besides the carb needing to be rebuilt. Drove it for a while, learned i was deathly afraid of it for a few reasons. Found the rusted through floor pans, doctored them up but same time cleaned the interior up. Fixed a couple other issues and decided to sell it asi didnt have the time or space anymore. Sold it for 5k with only 500 into it. Not bad for that old truck. Spent 2500 total from buying to repairs. Made 2500 off it. Told the person buying all the issues i fixed and told him the huge issues that would give him problems. Sorta miss it that old rig with its other problems. But the paint looked spectacular after i cleaned it up despite the dents. But i enjoyed the dents as it gave it character. I did do this stuff at a dealer. I was kicked off the property... Not my fault the vin pulled an ebay add for 5k and they tried selling it for 35k with no repairs.

[@rabbits_used_cars]

[@SEVepr7]

I have to say, even the video is 2 years old, that it had helped me to buy my dream car this year for 1500CZK (64$ at the time). Nissan Primera P11 GT, needs bit of a rust work and paint, but the car otherwise 100% ok. The owner had spend around 80k CZK in last two years (3400$). Just showing that I am willing to take the risk of the car and showing the knowledge, I bought it basically for nothing. Even when there were people willing to buy it for the maintenance costs :) So, thank you Ed for your advises you give to people :)

[@mattslawncare5651]

Ed at his best!

[@TheBrokenLife]

This advice generally applies to ALL car deals with the main thing being at the right place, at the right time, and actually having money. Not that the car itself is anything to brag about, but my girlfriend is currently driving around a 1995 Escort we bought for $1200 with 72,000 miles on the clock 3 years ago. I responded to the ad the first day it was listed and was there 3 hours later with money... She had over 30 people call her when she was asking $1500 and immediately dropped to $1200 just because I showed up when I said I would and she could take the ad down... Multiply everything else out however you want for any given car, but being johnny on the spot with the money and not jerking people around is usually what makes it happen. I've bought 4 or 5 cars of all price ranges by doing basically the same thing. Find the ad first day where the seller has already motivated themselves, have cash available immediately to grab it, and get there immediately.

[@michaelumphlettee7054]

[@eliot6775]

I've been flipping cars for 10 years (admittedly much cheaper cars than Ed, but still), and there's a lot of good info here. What people "hunting for a deal" almost always do is just say "whats the least you'll take" which makes me want to punch them in the face because they are doing the laziest least-effort bullshit ever. The best way to negotiate in your favor is to be genuine and express your knowledge, and just like Ed said, convince them you're the right person to sell it to regardless of who else might be making offers or what those offers are. Even if you are offering less than someone else, demonstrate your value and show the seller you can justify your offer and that others might be naive or create problems. Stay in your wheelhouse, do research before you bite off more than you can chew, and be open to learning and adjusting. I've landed LOTS of truly amazing deals just by being the person that nobody else wanted to be: responsive, trustworthy, fast-acting, and willing to go on the adventure. Now Ed has me by the balls... I'm gonna buy that shirt

[@andthe2380]

I agree with EVERY point...... EXCEPT "not needing a PPI". It's pretty hard to get your money out of a car with frame damage etc. ALWAYS get a PPI for your exotic car and even your $3,000 cars. They're cheap and can save you thousands on each car. Also you can use what you find wrong with the car to negotiate a lower price or it lets you run away from the car as fast as possible.

[@hugocoelho9560]

I agree its a fantastic hobby. In my case it started as a friend that owed me 1200 euros (im from portugal). He couldn't pay me, so we agree that he would pay me with is car, a Renault 4L. I agreed becausd I knew he was never gonna pay me back, and the car (at the time) was pretty much worthless. I kept the car, fixed minor issues, and 3 years later I sold it for 5000€. I felt amazing about my profit. I reinvested those 5000 in 1 VW golf mkii gti, that I just sold this january for 18.000€. Now just "playing" in profits I'm looking for the next car that (for any reason) will shoot up in value. Great channel. Great stories. Big fan from Portugal.

[@slownbroke6582]

I love watching these videos and seeing the advice you have to offer, as well with that I'm only an hour north of ATL so if you ever need a hand with anything, you know how to get ahold of me! Anyhow, I am astonished by how well you were able to explain things that I almost didn't realize I even did while buying a car (something that I do for a living, I might add). Borderline "consoling" the seller, explaining why you're so much easier to deal with, and making on-the-spot cash offers is 60% of the reason I'm able to buy vehicles at the price I do.. seeing that collected and explained its extremely impressive, and shows that you're very, very good at what you do.

I had a dream last night that I bought, and financed, a $112,000 used red Ferrari 360 (of all things - Ed mentions it in this video). Drove it a lot in what seemed follow-up dreams (seemingly two day's worth of driving episodes), thought about it while I was driving it, thought about work ... thought about what next job I'd have to find to be able to keep it and my daily driver... woke up kicking myself (with regrets) for buying the car. Somehow, despite my history, I bought it for the advertised price of $112k, and knew I paid too much, and that the only way out of it was a loss. This was a strange morning that only got better once I realized that I didn't really own a car, and that I wasn't on the hook for another $112k.

[@eformance]

Ed, you need to add some echo cancellation to your warehouse. Your micing is very good, but the echo is being picked up. A lot of people think that just adding egg-create foam is the solution, but in a high bay room, you should hang sheets of fabric covered 2in foam from the ceiling, separated apart by 2ft or so. This should help break up the reflected waves and dampen the echo. You might look at Matthias Wandel's sound dampening efforts in his high bay shop.

That sounds like a really good idea. We may move to a different location soon that will solve this.

This guy is great at what he does

[@vinniecorleone62]

I have a similar viewpoint on buying fun cars, terrific information Ed!

[@BilalMalek]

An Ed narrated VinWiki story. Heck yeah!

[@Shloomy_Shloms]

Me as a shrewd negotiator: Well, I could end up in an accident where my car gets totaled and insurance doesn’t wanna pay me, so I’m gonna want the car for free, please and thank you.

[@seanwalsh7264]

Once learned so much about negotiating from you guys I literally saved my dad a couple grand because the seller didn’t bother to clean the seats very well and the engine bay was filthy

[@grizllyman]

Note to self : never sell a car to Edd

[@EdBolian]

Certainly exhaust all other options first!

[@lovelessissimo]

You won't be able to resist.

[@HomeMadeKrazy]

Did he voice the pacer test?

[@rustyshaklferd1897]

About to try some of Ed’s tricks today. Found a used car that has every option I was looking for. The asking price is very reasonable, so I don’t know how much I can get off if any but we’ll see.

[@drivemyexotic5274]

Thanks again Ed for the insight. Definitely will try to hone those skills.

Rare car, desirable options, clean, offered by a desperate seller. Just research and do your homework. Ed is right about incorrect listings. I bought a 1 of 1 2015 Viper GTC that was listed as a basic GT. Car was traded in by a disgruntled owner and dealership wanted it gone after sitting for 2 months. Right place, right time, right car.

Finally! I've been waiting for this video for a while. Now, time to go buy myself a Craigslist car for 35% off
