Uh because the state cares. If you flip on the regular you need a business license otherwise you'll be up shit creek like the auto auction rebuilda/uberman guy
Sam, before you replace the dingy wraps on the DXP you might try polishing them out with a good polish. You might be able to restore the authentic ones that you have without having to replace them.
No problem with being a flipper, they are saving cars that would otherwise go to waste and making some money at the same time. As long as they do quality work good for them.
As long as they are being honest. We were sold a salvage vehicle without being told it had a salvage title and now have no idea what to do with it and have lost a lot of money. 2105 Infiniti Q50 is now my biggest headache
@@denicebanks4926 did you ask about the title? Did you do the car fax? This problem could have been avoided if you did the homework you as a car buyer is supposed to do.
I work as a Damage Appraiser for Insurance companies, I'm the guy that'll say whether a car is totaled or not. In CT if the cost of damage exceeds 70% of the cars value it's totaled. I've seen cars get totaled out from having a scratch down the side. It's kinda crazy.
I got my car totaled with no big damage but if the repair cost/market value is above some threshold it makes sense for both owner and insurance company to make it total given the cost for insurance company is just market value - auctioned sell price.
Sam, I LOVE your home. Beautiful land, beautiful place to work on cars. I just got a place in the country with 2 acres and cattle gate / fencing. I used to live on a ranch as a kid and I hope to get some chickens, goats, maybe a couple Shetland ponies. I love flipping Copart cars as a paying hobby although I understand you don't actually flip cars. Thanks again man. Great video.
you should've bought the M6. even if it wasn't a content producing car, you can't pass an opportunity like that. could've bought it, say nothing, fix it and sell it. i personally, would've liked to see the car on your channel, don't really care if you flip cars as long as you make videos about how you repaired them. that's why i'm here.....and you, of course :P
I’ve owned a 07 m6 for 3 years and it was great, No issues at all except for when it sits in my garage during winter and I don’t start her up for a few months then I run into bad coils/throttle bodies/plugs, basically the car needs to be driven and not sat, so I wouldn’t go as far as saying “m” cars are not reliable!!, the v10s are bullet proof, 2-10 cars have to go through the bad bearing bs otherwise they are solid cars and love to rev!!
Adams Daily Drive I agree with you .. mine sat for one month and it start throwing codes one after other changed 3 plugs .. now I know I’m gonna have to drive it at least 2 times a week .. thanks
FLIPPING : For me, I think flipping is buying and selling (relatively quickly and not driving it much) for a profit. Nothing wrong with that. In my view, Sam does his projects for fun. The fun of finding a suitable candidate, the fun of winning an auction within his budget, the fun of figuring out an approach that will allow for a safe rebuild, without just buying new OEM parts, fun in driving it for awhile, fun in making these videos with his pals. Does this allow Sam to make money from youtube videos ? Of course. Does this allow manufacturers make money through supporting Sam with free parts/ services ? Yes. Sam makes some money doing these videos. We viewers win by watching someone who is a great communicator, a humble guy who is honest, who shares his knowledge freely, supports the school for mentally disabled people, and makes videos about safety and how not to make mistakes doing projects by yourself. This is one of my top 3 favourite youtube videos. Good for Sam. And good for us. Wishing Mr. Sam continued success and many more safe driving miles
Good info.. I just bought a 2015 Mustang that was a Salvage title because it was stolen. Only damage was the smaller driverside window. The dealer I bought it from, had it inspected to become a rebuilt title. I saved about 8K over a one without a rebuilt title. Car only has 11K miles, so it was a awesome deal.
Look at Roush Mustang forums! Roush built the DXP, some Roush employees post on forums and you might be able to get a hook up on a wrap kit. Who knows, maybe Roush subcontracted the wrap and you might get pointed to the subcontractor.
I bought a 2008 Jeep Commander with 130k miles from copart for $875. It was police repossessed, had oxidization on the hood, didn't come with keys. Made 2 set of keys for it and it runs great. The previous owner had a lot of work done to it recently according to the service record. New exhaust, new muffler, new radiator, new alternator, new water pump, new rotors, new pads, new spark plugs...I had it in my driveway with no plates and had a guy offer me $4500 cash for it. It wasn't even for sale. That would be the easiest flip in the world if I was interested in flipping.
Unfortunately I don't have the title yet or I may very well have too. I think I can sell it for a decent profit in the future if I feel like it, but it's a solid SUV with 3 rows. Jeep doesn't make a 3rd row SUV like it anymore. Also it has new coilover shocks.
Expensive cars don't go to junkyards... Junkyards get cars for next to nothing or for nothing. Supercars are sold off on copart or salvage auctions are someone buys and strips them and puts it on Ebay. Where aforementioned parts are super expensive. CL, Offerup... lol.
Gelenvader3 Until it breaks(not for sure but its a risk at 80k+ miles) then your new engine is 30k from BMW. Its a risky car but awesome if you can tolerate the risk.
What a man does to make his money is nobodys business flipper or not. I bought 6 pallets of NOS auto parts for $75 bucks, made over $6k on them.... Profit is sweet!
Also I think you should do a pickup truck for your next flip. Maybe an older model(2000's era) just to see if there is any money to be made fixing something that old. Maybe a pre-emissions diesel truck, those seem to go for good $$$$.
I saw the same car, but I started to think of the common problems with the E63 BMW M6. Vanos, Rod Bearings, SMG Pump, potential suspension issues, coolant pipe leaks, valve stem seals, and etc... etc... If it was a strut replacement, then that def was a steal. The engine alone is worth 10k to 15k when I last looked it up. Keep up the good work with the channel!!! AND YES!!! You should do a M6 for the next car.
MotorHead Tech - Imagine I delivered lumber in my Mercedes, and took dates out in a Home Depot branded flatbed truck. That would be funny, wouldn't it? Yes? That was the sort of joke B L U E made, and it made me laugh out loud - literally.
I don’t know if all insurance companies work like mine but my truck now has a salvage title and I think the adjusters made a mistake cause it passed inspection and has no frame damage. My insurance companies did tell me when you have a salvage title, you can no longer have full coverage insurance on the car. I wounder if the person that bought the BMW know that , probably not.
The real risk with this BMW is that it didn't run/drive at the auction place. That could've been very bad news, SMG gearbox needing a rebuild or the rod bearings on the V10 going bad are common failures for that car. Each of those is more than $10,000 to fix!!! There are also a bunch of other parts that are specific to the M6 and not a regular 6 series, which if the underbody was all tore up, could add to a pretty hefty parts bill. On newer BMW M cars, they share a lot more parts with their less expensive counterparts, example engine in a new M5 is the same as the V8 in the 550i and 7 series, just a different tune, maybe bigger turbos and a couple other tweaks.
I saw that car at the bmw dealership by me. The car is in good condition. My m6 was getting worked on so I took a look at it. It ran and drove but the suspension was a little bent. The owner went over a curb at 60+
Copart fees could be $500 depending on what account. If they don't have a dealer account, at least up here in Canuckistan, the fees on top of the price works out to be about 50%. Frankly, I don't know why more BMW etc dealers don't get into these cars. They can literally get all the parts and labour at cost. Kind of like the dealership that specialize in lemon buy back cars.
tbh if anyone had the money to fix the m6, it can go 2 ways, 1. keep the car since its a steal. or 2. flip it cause it can fuel future projects, but anyways you do you booboo
Could be a recovered theft. That would explain the minimal damage and being sold by insurance. If the vehicle was damaged by comp or coll and could be repaired, the insurance company is going to repair it. In other cases when a vehicle is being repaired and an unexpected supplement for hidden damage pushes the repair cost over the state threshold for a total, the insurance company will complete the repairs and then send the car to the salvage auction.
Hi Sam, I don't think it's anyone's business if you flip. It's not a crime, it's no sin, there's nothing wrong with it. I love your AUDI A3. Unfortunately, I don't have the money to buy and bring it down to Nigeria. I'm Nigerian and a BIG fan of yours.
It's fun for you and fun for us to watch. Let people say what they wanna say. You just keep doing the good work. Love the channel and the work you put in to each car. 👏🏼
+Samcrac i live in the uk and flip about 3-4 cars a year just for the joy and all my neighbours complain about it and one of them was taking photos for some reason its just silly. 😂 btw you are one of my favourite youtubers and i enjoy your videos so much i watched nearly all of them and i think what you are doing is absolutely fine.
Stevie Wander he can do as he pleases, if he repairs these cars to a good standard and then sells them on for a little profit for his time and work what business is that of yours?
What is with this guy. All I hear him saying is that he isn't a flipper, like it's such a bad thing. This guy actually brings a whole new meaning to flipper
I think his sentiment is correct, but the M6 might be a bad example. Ongoing upkeep and maintenance plus not knowing the engine history makes this V10 car with M sport parts an expensive gamble. Sure at a flip it might work just don’t hold it too long. Near me I see these cars sit and I want one badly but I cant afford the potential repair cost.
The "clerical error" on the auction seems suspicious. Do you think there was some collusion between a Coparts employee and someone at the dealership? I don't think there is anything wrong with flipping. You should buy a car to flip to show us how it's done and work through the costs/profit of the project.
I was at that yard on Friday. I don't like that an employee has to stand over you while you look at each car you are interested in. I do inspections at many Florida Copart yards for my clients and it makes me feel rushed. Not good when taking videos for overseas clients that want to see everything I see.
You know i shopped for a M6 last year. and looked and drove like 5 of them. from 60-80k miles. all had some kind of issues. most common was idle problem the rpm would jump up and down when parked. some paddle shifters were broken off. some just destroyed everywhere from previous owner. An engine failure will run you 30k plus labor to replace on it. most common issue dsg transmissions pump goes out. 3-5k to fix it? Have to be very careful when buying those type of cars.
Relatively new subscriber, but it's clear your semi-loaded and don't "need" to flip lol. I like that you still seem like a humble guy tho! Love the content
Scrolled a lot of comments and didn't see anyone pointing out the obvious bumper misalignment in the ebay photos of the car. Seems like there was some damage to the front end that they didn't bother to fix. I know it could just be some plastic clips broken, but if that was true, they would have fixed it.
The only issue with this car besides obviously the ones you mentioned, is this is the sister to the M5 V10.... PPI Recommended and damn near mandatory... do your own research and you will see why.
Although it turned out okay for the buyer, undercarriage damage could have been a cracked sump which could have led to an engine seizure. I would have seen this as a risky buy.
The wording is something you just have to ignore. I was duped on a craigslist description saying "96800 Meticulous maintained one owner miles" this was the standard quote on all of this guys cars listed and hes a Auction buyer and flipper. Granted he is honoring his VERBAL warrantee with me and is replacing the pistons, rings, timing chain tensioner and rear main seal on my 2010 AUDI A4 Quattro which has the infamous burning of a quart of oil every 150 miles. Love the car but it needs help and I should of done more research and should of just brought it to an AUDI dealer to check it out before i jumped.
I looked at a copart SRT charger the other day. Listed as under carriage run and Drive. Started her up and she fired right up, but was ticking. It was then I noticed the oil light was on. Shut her down and low and behold the oil pan had been ripped out. Now I’m sure if you replace the oil pan the motor maybe ok, but for how long??? The same maybe true for that BMW. Why was it E if the car ran and Drive ?? Something is fishy if you ask me.
"Flipping" new cars for higher than MSRP = Evil. Buying a salvage car, fixing it, and selling it for a profit? Business. As long as you're honest with any buyers about damages/repairs done, what's the issue?
Though I agree you are not a flipper, the ad revenue you generated solely from videos on the Audi would have at least covered the difference/created profit from the cost of buying and rebuilding the car.
Do you try to stay away from AWD cars/Suv or Diesels ?. I would like to get ahold of a Mazda CX-5 or CX-3 AWD. Just curious. The CX-5's are so nice with leather stitched Dashes.
why not check out Inshane design wraps that Street Speed 717 uses see what price they could quote you to make the wrap and mail it to ya since they do their designs on computer.They could recreate what you need and may have the colors you want.

You know what..I’ll be educating myself on stuff like this starting tomorrow
The dxp car looks good great job finishing it up can't wait to see the vette all finished too?
Man i love ur videos
The only issue with this car besides obviously the ones you mentioned, is this is the sister to the M5 V10.... PPI Recommended and damn near mandatory... do your own research and you will see why.
Although it turned out okay for the buyer, undercarriage damage could have been a cracked sump which could have led to an engine seizure. I would have seen this as a risky buy.
How did you acquire so much knowledge about fixing cars? whats the best way to learn about fixing cars? Thanks for the videos.
The wording is something you just have to ignore. I was duped on a craigslist description saying "96800 Meticulous maintained one owner miles" this was the standard quote on all of this guys cars listed and hes a Auction buyer and flipper. Granted he is honoring his VERBAL warrantee with me and is replacing the pistons, rings, timing chain tensioner and rear main seal on my 2010 AUDI A4 Quattro which has the infamous burning of a quart of oil every 150 miles. Love the car but it needs help and I should of done more research and should of just brought it to an AUDI dealer to check it out before i jumped.
The Dominos car is called a Holden Barina in Australia......GMH
Is it just me or the rear wheels are not paralel to each other? One is closer to the passenger then the other...
Is there a way to see how much the cars sold for without watching the auction?
I looked at a copart SRT charger the other day. Listed as under carriage run and Drive. Started her up and she fired right up, but was ticking. It was then I noticed the oil light was on. Shut her down and low and behold the oil pan had been ripped out. Now I’m sure if you replace the oil pan the motor maybe ok, but for how long??? The same maybe true for that BMW. Why was it E if the car ran and Drive ?? Something is fishy if you ask me.
That was a super steal 😱
More car of the day
Great information my man...
The engine probably has a vanos camshaft problem that wasnt fix under warranty.
Is it best to “buy now” or bid on a salvage car? Or does it depend on vehicles?
Oh damn I've been watching alot of his videos as of lately but I wasn't aware that he is from the Tampa bay area as well!
What up Samcrac!
What's up bro!

Hey Sam I'm local and like your videos.. the wrap I recommend is Redline Designs in Tampa
only recently subscribed .really enjoy .dont get the impresion you are in it to flip
"Flipping" new cars for higher than MSRP = Evil.
Buying a salvage car, fixing it, and selling it for a profit? Business. As long as you're honest with any buyers about damages/repairs done, what's the issue?
Though I agree you are not a flipper, the ad revenue you generated solely from videos on the Audi would have at least covered the difference/created profit from the cost of buying and rebuilding the car.
Nothing wrong with flipping a few cars if it helps pay for the projects and rebuilds. Atleast sell them for what you got in them and break even.
Please use Inshane designs. More of a drive but would make a great video.
Do you try to stay away from AWD cars/Suv or Diesels ?. I would like to get ahold of a Mazda CX-5 or CX-3 AWD. Just curious. The CX-5's are so nice with leather stitched Dashes.
How much for the Audi I love that car been wanting one for quite a while or where can I find it listed. Thank you
The wrap wizard
Where did you get this huge piece of land? Family owned? Just curious. It’s freakin awesome. Greetings from your neighbor in Orlando :)
