And you may have not seen anything fishy going on but that doesn't mean others haven't or that there isn't. I spent 10 years literally looking for patterns and anomalies for a living. While I haven't scrapped and databased BaT sales history and user activity, I've got a pretty decent eye for seeing things that don't jive. That's why I said "it seems".
If I took the time I could provide an answer suitable for a courtroom.

Good to know what you wouldn't pay
But, I don't believe you on good condition coupes ever existing under $10k (which I see you've already revised form $8k in your original post). Forum posts from whatever time period you're referring to still exist-- should be easy enough for you to provide a single example.
I know some of the people that sold some of the higher dollar e46 M3s on BaT-- and there is nothing fishy about them.
