Amen to that.

Haha

[@iliasmourdi9680]

And he has owned like 20% of them

[@DavidRachfordFitness]

Econ 101: You want to raise the price? limit the supply!

Ed Bolian saying "Responsible adult arrangement" when talking about a $770K car purchase is Vinwiki in a nutshell - Ed never change!

Thank you. Wasn’t planning on it.

[@johnlicciardello2389]

Respect to Ed for being honest about the auction. He could have been dishonest and claimed he was thrilled about it to try to prop up the prices of the car…..

[@alexbrown8160]

The master of spin... how Ed turns his bidding-up of a car/ market manipulation/ self preservation turns into him holding the bag.

[@g8autox]

Having NOT just spent $710k on a car, I can say this is a hilarious story! Thank you Ed for sharing the less-than-glamorous side of high roller/high risk car purchases.

[@Smilingpolitely553]

Sounds like ed got caught trying to inflate the bids for his own collection haha

There was no smack dab in the middle price negotiation in this episode. Scud left the garage again!

[@andrewsimckes5748]

Mrs Bolian seems to be the most understanding woman of all time.

[@aleiterful]

What’s absolutely crazy is my buddy bought one of these murcis for 120k and I thought he was nuts because at the time he could have gotten a gallardo for around 70-80. Now knowing what I know about Lamborghini I would slap the shit out of myself 10 years ago lol

[@ramonclements9879]

A good salesman can get you to sympathize and feel bad for them about how they "get stuck" with a dream car, at a great price...Ed, you certainly have a way with words!

[@anthonyvierra1975]

😂 market manipulation at it’s finest. I’ve never heard the words “it should be worth more” used this much.

[@aphromew4502]

Ed: No way I get this car under value *Ed gets car at a low value* Ed: Better make a video explaining to the world that I got the car under value, the front bumper damage was minor, and its really worth 1.1 mil. *thats some shhhrrreeewd business 😤😂

[@Poker3625]

I’m pretty sure I know the seller. If it’s who I think it is this was his personal car for a while but he owns a car dealer in NYC. I bought my childhood dream car off of him 5 years ago. A 2007 Honda S2000

[@HannibalACP82]

I've had an 05 S2000 since 09. Zero regrets!

[@VINwiki]

Oooooops

[@dan3162]

My observation on bidders like Ed is this, they bid to drive the value up with zero intent of owning and honestly bloat the values. They justify it however they want, but you’re creating a false market…which leads to large swings in market values that causes financial instability. My suggestion, STOP IT! Bid on what you intend on buying, stop screwing others by driving up the price.

[@bwofficial1776]

But he bought it, so everything you just said doesn't apply. These cars are worth what people are willing to pay. The other bidder could have tapped out at any time.

[@davidcat1455]

Thing you’ve got to remember about Ed is that he is a sleazy used car salesman. Charming, witty, personable, and very likeable, and his job is to extract as much money as possible from the people he deals with. Great guy to talk to or have a beer with as long as you remember his ultimate goal is to buy and sell cars with as much profit for himself as possible.🤷 It’s the American way.

[@GTSCarLife]

Congratulations Ed. Next time you’re in the neighborhood stop on by. It would be great to see you again.

[@macmurati]

serious question, if he's bidding 700+ on a murci and hoping he doesn't end up buying it, then why is he bidding? is he just price hiking?

[@PatrickPeterVlogs]

Manipulating prices in his favour.

[@clintmiller88]

Ed throwing shade at cars n bids

[@Gremlack13]

Once I saw the title I was hoping for an Ed video and thought of his love for the lp640. I was not disappointed. Love you, Ed. Keep being you and you’re unintentional purchases and actions.

[@BKetch]

I accidently bought a watch on Ebay. I know the feeling Ed had when he won. Much smaller amount obviously.

[@opiante]

I love Ed! He is literally the only person who would ever make this video. He clearly didn't want to get this car and is honest about it, and yet those car salesman genes are still able to make up a way to justify it. I'm sure he'll still make out like a bandit in the end on this deal.

[@bewareofsasquatch]

3:25 wow name drop. Roy Cats man that guy has so many Lamborghinis. I love cats exotic. I used to live 5mins from Cats Exotics (Lynnwood,WA) it’s his side hustle exotic car dealership, his main job was he ones like a fire safety company called FPI. I’ve seen like a couple Murciélago SVs with the manuel and SV with out the wing. He had Koenigsegg CCX, a Vector, A Diablo with an American flag on it, OH he had Minardi Lamborghini F1 car a 1 point for sale. So if this is the only blue gated Murciélago than I’ve seen this car multiple times. I’ve seen Mr. Cats a couple times at exotic car show we have in Redmond, WA close to the Microsoft HQ and always brings really cool cars.

[@JoeVinson]

You screwed up the market for your own personal gain. Congratulations.

[@Mytwistedvoices]

I bought a motorcycle on Ebay, I called the finance office of the dealership and settled. Turns out they listed it for $12k when they wanted to list it for $16.5K. They refused to release the bike. In fact they stopped taking my calls. The finance manager called me and asked how I was enjoying the bike. I explained to him what is happening. Two hours later the finance manager called me back, they are shipping the motorcycle immediately. By this time I was days away from deploying over seas. I got the bike just in time to put it in storage. I had to wait 9 months to get to ride it. My auction site story.

[@HamHound]

Every man wishes he had a woman as understanding as Mrs. Bolian

[@sharingstoke]

Love listening to your stories, Ed! How does someone who has never owned an exotic, get into them? I am looking for a cheap project to start and want to get into something cool, like an older Porsche, and flip it. Goal is to get into an exotic. 🙏 would love to know how you got your first one! Thanks, from Redondo Beach(the end of cannonball 🤙)

[@VINwiki]

Find a target car, perhaps a 964, and educate yourself on what to look for as you shop.

[@daledodge40]

Or a yugo, they are exotic now adays!

[@jsquared1013]

Nothing air-cooled from Porsche is cheap anymore, except maybe 914s, and you'd have to 6-cyl swap to bring bigger money (which is expensive now because the air-cooled 6es are also very high dollar items). Even the front-engine water-cooled transaxle cars are appreciating in price for the moderate and nicer ones. I don't like to be a "negative Nancy" but given the current market, it's going to be very difficult to use a Porsche as the starting point. Maybe as a mid-point it would work better.

[@Jenuin]

So if you’re always bidding to bring the price up wouldn’t that be considered manufacturing the price or falsely raising prices just to up the valuation? I’m just wondering because it sounds like price fixing?
