Hahaha...yeah man I totally agree. I got a 2003 Honda Accord. 3.0 liter v6 6 speed manual.EXL. for sale...that has 100k worth of history behind it.and 280k miles. Hit me up if your interested. Won't take any less than 103k 😁👍
This is really just a recipe to end up with the worst car on Earth and hoping you bought it cheap enough so it is probably best to totally disregard each of these "commandments." Anyway, that's how I do it.
Hey i just bought Mercedes c200 cgi 2010 it has 1,35,0000 kilometres but it does not have any problem or any error but that much kilometres is im worried about shall is change it or not worried about?!? Can you please help me btw i love your video and love the storys you post 💜 !!! I hope once in a life time ill able to meet you 🥺
Dont know if you ever watched South Beach Classics , What I learned from that guy is that you dont make your money when you sell your car, you make it when you buy it. Your strategy fits hand in glove with that concept.
@Ed Bolian, we need car stories from ex girlfriends about our favorite car guys. I think it would be interesting to see these stories from their perspective. It could be hilarious or really bad, but either way the content will be gold.
The biggest thing I've taken away from Ed videos is that I never want to buy from, sell to, or even bid against Ed in a car deal. I'm not going to win in any scenario.
A friend of mine's father who owned a used car dealership for a number of years, he had a habit of buying 5-10 year old luxury sedans with high miles. His philosophy was simple, "When you pull up to a stop light, you can't tell how many miles the car has next to you". He would also do it with the idea if they were one owner cars, they were generally serviced by the selling dealer for most of their lives so they were taken care of but just driven more than others.
Ed: You are losing money if you do not sell me this Murci. Seller: Really? SOLD! Ed: You are loosing money if you do not buy my Murci. Hoovie: Really? SOLD!!!
Nothing on the exotic scale, but it's a real pita when somebody like "I'll give you x amount cash right now for it", I say ok, then they like, "aaight lemme run to the bank real quick".....dude, that's not right now to me.
Great advice!! I am as old as dirt. But one of the early lessons I learned that put me on a great path to financial freedom was to buy well depreciated premium cars. I was working in the 80's as an IT engineer on IBM mainframes. My boss drove an expensive Lincoln and we were razzing him about being a big shot. He countered that he always buys 2 year old luxury cars coming off corp executive leases. They are radically depreciated but well maintained. He asked the employee razzing him how much he paid for his new Honda Civic. Turns out the boss paid less for his land cruiser. Bingo!! From then on I did the same. I had great rides that cost nothing. And never a car loan. No body knew I was driving a 2-3 year old car. They just knew I had the best car in the lot. Same concepts that Ed is advocating for super cars.
I used the ed Bolian tactic to buy one of my dream cars, this car is needed 40 small things and some of them I would upgrade anyway and it had some parts that are on my dream list, I got this amazing little car for 15% of its retail value, that and the fact the guy selling it had no idea what he was selling, saved so much I'm going for a full respray. Actively not looking,
Got a salvage-title 2004 Porsche 911 that was professionally repaired and looks perfect for less than $16,000. IMS was done. Damage was body-only (vandalism). Car looks perfect and I'm having a ton of fun with it!!
Will there ever be a story on the E60 M5 in the picture where your green Murci is in the warehouse? Maybe you don’t have any but they’ve always been my favourite car. Thanks for the video, Ed!
I think Ed being famous now and known for buying the worst or the cheapest example of any car and people interested in it and also autotempest the being big sponsor for the channel they should really think in adding in the configuration a Ed bolian or bolian spec cars that would save a lot of time 😂😂
@6:58 High miles on a car does mean more wear and tear, but it also means the car wasn't parked broken down for ages waiting for repairs. Unreliable cars are hard to rack up mileage.
Ed, you put a “drivers car” into perspective for me and I’ve never had such a set search on cars, drive for miles and lose little to none when you’re done. Keep up the good work!
I bought my Ferrari 360 with a terrible wrap, unknown paint condition, minimal service records and an eccentric owner that was only able to send some fuzzy pics but was willing to sell it cheap. Not sure if I’m a moron or a genius?
This is an excellent video. I've been following many of these tips and was pleased to learn even more. Feels good to see an industry professional using similar tactics
And this advice is applicable for cars of all price ranges. Not just super cars. I like 90s chevy trucks because they're cheap yet appreciating and I know almost every detail about them.
I just recently used some of Ed's techniques to acquire a vehicle. It was by no means a depreciated exotic; it was a 20 year old Chevy truck. Still, I was able to leverage some other assets in trade and negotiate shrewdly enough to effectively get the truck for free.
I love Ed’s videos...if he came to view a car that I was selling id close the curtains, lock the doors and wear earmuffs because I’d probably end up giving him the car for free and probably give him 10k as a thank you for allowing me to let him have my car! I’m surprised that you don’t do voice over work for some big network channel.
Thanks Ed, pure advice about buying the car you want, I invested in cars as a high school student, bought 7 of the same car, my mates thought I'd gone nuts, put them away for a long time, the last two I had paid for a house, Rj watching in Oz,
I feel the same way with my $2000 supercharged coyote/manual swapped 2012 Equus. Bought secondhand from the man who did the engine and trans swap and I'm enjoying the hell out of all 685 whp while rowing through the gears and pissing off mustang fuckboys in my luxurious Korean rickshaw on steroids.
And verily Ed came down from the summit mount, with stone tablets bearing commandments for buying exotic cars. He gave these commandments to the people and the Ferruccio said. "This is good."
This kind of works for motorcycles too. I put 80,000miles on a sport bike and everyone wondered if I'd be able to sell it. It sold for the same price as one that had less than 3,000 mi on it. If you have a desirable vehicle, people will overlook the mileage. They will overlook minor paint scratches or whatever else you think is a big deal because they want that shiny new thing and that's the one they want and that's one is the cheapest they could find for sale...
Ed Bolian is proof that Jedi’s exist! Me...I want 100k for my car. Ed...how about I do you a favour and take it off of your hands for free. Me...great deal, let’s shake on it!
I think I may be even better at this than ed... I once used all those steps to buy a car and then gave him 1400 dollars more than he was asking. THEN spent 5 grand fixing it to a point it's still not right. Best decision of my life.
Yo can you add engine search to auto tempest? I want the cheapest v8 mustang and it’s been hard since just adding GT doesn’t always give me everything.
Hi Ed, I know it's not automobile related, but I would love a video talking about your basketball career before it ended! It would be interesting to here about that part of your life as it's not touched upon to much!
Wife: Why did you pay 100k for a crashed Lamborghini? Husband: Ed says if I buy this car now, put 20-30k back into it and get it back to its original condition, I can sell it for 450,000. Wife: I'm leaving you for you brother
1. Try to look like you won the lottery 10 years ago 2. No one at Cars & Coffee can spot paintwork 3. The cheapest car in the world just needs to be the cheapest car in the world 4. Depreciation is certain, buy you car might not break 5. Manage your risk 6. Every mile costs less than the one before it 7. Car issues matter less tomorrow than they do today 8. Supply and demand works for bad cars too 9. Commit fully and make a fast deal 10. You are your car's history
No offence Ed but asking your advice on how to find a good car is like asking the owner of a strip club to find you a wife. Can't wait for CarTrek 4, is filming gonna start soon?
The weirdest car economics I am aware of is for the Toyota Land Cruiser. This car is not very prohibitively expensive new, but used, it just doesn't depreciate. I see 12 year old Land Cruisers for sale that still warrant 70% of their original price. Regardless of number of owners, miles, and general condition... Maybe it's a middle east thing?
Yeah my brother got an ATS-V through an online auction that everything pointed to it having a bad engine. But he bought the car got in touch with a previous owner who told him it was built to 601 whp. And it went cheaper than any other ats-v on the market so he’s got a steal anyway you look at it.

like your car intelligence -- do some videos to educate buyers on 996 and 997 many people can consider a sports car in this price range --
1. Try to look like you won the lottery 10 years ago
2. No one at Cars & Coffee can spot paintwork
3. The cheapest car in the world just needs to be the cheapest car in the world
4. Depreciation is certain, buy you car might not break
5. Manage your risk
6. Every mile costs less than the one before it
7. Car issues matter less tomorrow than they do today
8. Supply and demand works for bad cars too
9. Commit fully and make a fast deal
10. You are your car's history

Hi Ed so which one would you choose?
Mileage vs Age
For example 2k+/- miles on a 10 year old supercar or 20k+/- Miles on a 2 year old car assuming the price for each is comprable
Older always. Age is a bigger value factor early on. Preferably both though!
