my dream car, i have to work more. ;D

youve got pm 

Got it. Thanks!

I want to correct the original post but editing isn't allowed.

I'm looking at my emails and I think the original purchase date was actually 10/23/12 (listed as "TRANSFER DATE" on the title). My original post referenced the "ISSUE DATE" which isn't actually the date of purchase.

Sorry for the error. I'm traveling right now so I don't have access to the original sales docs atm.

Probably the coolest thing I've seen auctioned here, however I think you might be better off listing this on bitpremier if you are starting bidding at 150k. Best of luck with sale  :)

I'm tired of assholes who wastes their money on the disgusting misogynistic car culture instead of doing something useful with their money. Go pick up a copy of any car magazine and there is, I guarantee, a scantily clad woman being objectified in one of the pages.

You hate bitcoin, you hate nice cars, you hate a lot of stuff it seems.  Why are you even on this forum?  Isn't there somewhere else where you could commiserate with other unhappy people?  Just seems like you'd be happier elsewhere. (see what I did there?  ;D)

Nope.

And no, there is absolutely nothing "nice" about misogyny.

Agree, but consider that when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.  The world isn't as evil as you think it is.  I hope you someday discover that and are able to cheer up :)

90% of  the people using the term 'misogyny' are ugly women. The other 10% comes from people making from of ugly women crying misogyny.

By the way, most women like looking at hot men scantily clad. What is that called?

Great car Bison. If BTC increases 900% in the next week I might be interested.

Damn. It's beautiful. It might just be worth the divorce I would have to get.  :D

Wow, really nice stereotyping you're doing there.  You have no fucking idea what this guy does with his money and there aren't any scantily clad women in the photographs above.  Why are you even looking at this auction?

Anyway, best of luck @OP.  I hope you get more than $150k because of people like lm2f.  And I hope the winner posts a hot bikini babe leaning against the car while he (since it HAS to be a man who would dare to buy this) has his feet resting on a footstool covered by the luxurious skin of small animals and is burning a stack of $100's.

is there an ongoing dog fight in the background?

get some sleep haha

Yes and the winner left the water running while he brushed his teeth.

Don't buy it then. What someone else does with their property or with their own money is none of your business whatsoever.

The more I read feminist books and watch society through feminist (meaning I took of the rose colored glasses the patriarchy forces women to wear) eyes, the more I understand what men are generally all about. It explains the response I've received on every post I've made on this site. Men can't stand being called out on their BS and they react violently when called out on it.

nice honda!

Cry more you are really changing the world whining (or trolling?) internet forums.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is what happens when you read feminist brainwashing material.

Perfect example.

This is why we can't have nice things.

I'll give you 10 MILLION TOPCOIN for it. Yes, (you heard me right) I said 10 MILLION TOPCOIN!!

PM me.

It's hilarious that you've decided to make your stand against all that you think is wrong with the world here, on the bitcoin forums, of all places.  The internet equivalent of a crazy person shaking their fist and yelling at the sky... ;D :D ::)

Wow! Just wow! Wouldn't you trade your car for Steam games? ;-)

STUNNING !!! Its my dream car  i even have a Mclaren on my desktop wallpaper  ;D

Most men could care less what feminists think. Did your feminists books tell you that?

how about , put your nickname on a paper, and put the paper inside the car ?

That is stunning, good luck with the auction! I'm sure that the winner will be delighted.

do you have any actual photos of the car your selling?

You need to go argue this point in the comments section of http://heartiste.wordpress.com  or  http://www.returnofkings.com

People are more interested in money than feminism here.   ;D

I was gonna make an offer in Trollcoins, but...

Let's not discriminate against feminists here, a hot feminist oiled up in a bikini on that hood would look even sexier than just a hot slut.

are you lonely :( ?

Thanks for the responses so far, everyone.


Check my original post. Those are "actual photos." Not stock photos.

You're not a feminist, you're just an angry bird. I bet I know more about the feminist movement than you do. I have 2 intelligent grown daughters. I'd be mortified if they thought that coming onto an internet forum and spouting nonsense was what feminism is all about. Feminism is about the life they live, not the sort of nonsense you're spouting.

Have fun! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=304950.0

10 BTC

To see if this car is legitimately being auctioned off for Bitcoins, perhaps you should talk to the current dealership that owns it: http://www.dupontregistry.com/autos/search/DRauSearchDetails.aspx?itemid=1903516 (http://www.dupontregistry.com/autos/search/DRauSearchDetails.aspx?itemid=1903516)

There were selling it for me on consignment a couple months ago, but I ended up taking it back. You're welcome to call the dealership and ask about who the owner is. Also, you can see in the original post that I posted a scan of the title.

Any serious buyer is going to come see the car in-person before purchasing it anyway.

That is the coolest thing I've seen auctioned here.
Wow, OP hope you find a buyer.

Have many of our richest members left due to scandals, cashing out, etc?

supercar? this is more like hypercar! a lot better than the orange lambo sold for btc! awesome!
I wish i could afford to buy something like this.. maybe one day

Thanks! I've received a couple PMs here and on Reddit. I think the early Bitcoiners are still around.


Here's proof of service records in case you're still doubting that I own the car:

LMAO

Sick car tho

My bid still stands as the highest bid.

Lol...  Bidding starts at $150k.  Unless your BTC are like $15 each you are a bit low.  ;)

Hahaha, $15k, I meant to say.  :P

Bitcoin will be worth $15k each by 2016, so all he has to do is accept my highest bid then hold for a couple years to get his $150,000

10 BTC? Is some kind of joke? I don't think you get it. This guy has money already. He likely does not need to accept your joke offer and hope and pray that btc will rise to a billion dollars power coin to profit.

But, your post has some comedic value though :P 

Okay I'm raising my offer to 11 BTC.  I'm still the highest bidder....I don't joke about my bitcoins.

Well, if BTC rises ~20x in the next few days the car will be yours.  ;)

lol if it rises 20x I'll give you 15! Much bitcoin. Wow!  :D

I'm just hoping someone buys this and replies about it here.

Pretty amazing.

I very much doubt that person would post here. I think if it sells to a bitcoiner it will be via PM deal and the buyer will remain anonymous. The reason for this should be obvious to anyone.

This car would instantly extend your manliness by at least 2 inches, I'll have to pass tho, mine would become monstrous, haja!

Is someone willing to escrow my 11 BTC bid (still highest bid), so that I can take delivery of the car and insure that it gets me up to 3 inches before releasing my BTC to the seller?

I want to say this is such a beautiful car, had the page opened for like 2 days. I wish I could buy it and ship to NY, but the girlfriend said no so yeah. Good Luck.

I'll escrow your bid. But I doubt you'll meet his reserve...so keep on bidding up. Give'em at least 50K

Is anyone willing to provide escrow for allinvain's escrow?  I'm looking for double escrow protection, there is very serious money at stake here.

Dude, this car would get you all the girls you could possibly handle.  Gotta think strategically here...  ;)

Looks like my future car

Yeah, the ones that are looking to get a much of a handle on his money as they can ;) You better be prepared for the assumption society makes when it sees you driving in such high-priced style.

lol, double escrow eh. In the end escrow is only as safe as the last party to hold the funds or the first. You gain no additional protection from double escrow unless you do like a 50/50 split between two escrow agents. Or do something crazy like split it 10 ways, each escrow agent having on 10% of the funds.

But try not to stress yourself over such details bro, cause the seller did not even say he actually accepted your offer as a valid bid. This auction has a reserve or minimum bid anyways.

Now, seller, can you please post some pics of a few women in bikinis standing next to the car while there is a mountain of cocaine on the rear spoiler and stacks of money littered all over the body of the car.

Would you accept my left nut for this? It produces super sperm as I am 3 for 3 in attempts to make a baby. Each with a DIFFERENT* woman so it is not a coincidence. If you are wanting to have children then this testicle is for you. What could be worth more than the joy of having your own child? ***DOUBLE ESCROW NOT REQUIRED***

Very cool, good luck with the sale OP. 

I doubt the car will go for anything less than 80BTC, which would still be an absurd bargain. I would be happy to escrow if needed.

regarding multiple escrow, what you would want is an n-of-m escrow. An example of the way this works for a 3-of-4 escrow:
1) Find 2 escrow providers.
2) create a n-of-m transaction with 4 keys and 3 required for release.
3) give 1 key to each escrow agent, plus one to the buyer and one to the seller.
4) When the car is received and inspected, the buyer tells the escrow agents what to do (ie: dispute or release funds)
5) In order to achieve the 3/4 condition you need either both escrow agents to decide the deal is complete, or 1 escrow agent and the buyer. (The seller is assumed to already say 'yes')
6) if there is a dispute by the buyer; it means that for the funds to still release by 3-of-4 condition both escrow agents must agree with and side with the seller rather than the buyer - this should only occur if the buyer is making a frivolous dispute or trying to scam the seller.

This method can be scaled up to allow more 3rd parties to agree on the successful transaction to release the funds. for example a 5-of-7 would require the buyer + 3/5 agents to agree or 4/5 agents to agree against the will of the buyer

have there been any valid bids yet?

I'll give you 10M TopCoin for it (Yes you heard right - 10 MILLION TOPCOIN!!!)

Using this method, would both escrow agents be tasked with measuring to make sure the car gets me up to 3 inches?  I want to make sure I don't get scammed out of my 11 BTC here.

I'm increasing my offer to 11 BTC & 1 billion CENT.   I still have the highest offer.

60BTC ....lol :)

61 BTC

62

63 (serious bid)

With the bidding starting at $150K how an this be a valid bid? Did you not read the terms of the auction?

It's still the highest bid though.  Maybe the OP will feel generous enough to hook a bitcoin bro up.

65 BTC and equity in my company, all done properly through a lawyer.  Details in PM

69 BTC

Keeping an eye on this thread

Not quite... I have someone who's arranging to come see the car next week though.

if you seriously have that much BTC you should most definitely look at this thread! ;) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=509407.msg5627970#msg5627970

The best I can do is offer my wife which includes her cooking, cleaning and caring  ::) services which I think is well over your $150,000 asking price.  What you think? Can provide images of services and caring  8) ;D

My final offer is 75 BTC.  This is a serious bid.  Please consider hooking a Bitcoin brother up with a discounted McLaren MP4-12C.  I would be extremely appreciative and you would not regret your decision.

Since some are placing "serious" offers I'll raise the ante some, I'll put 100BTC on the table but then given the terms it's still too low..

I can't match that.  Asshole.

Nice car! ;)

Will the OP accept a small down payment?   :D

I'm closing this auction, as it didn't receive any offers above the starting price.

Thanks anyway guys.

It's a tough road with BTC items like this.. It's by no means universal but with the recent fluctuations I am holding..  I'd be more apt to drop the fiat on it now at $150K instead of the BTC given that I expect it to rise over the long term.. It did get me looking though and I might pick one up from a dealer on ebay now that I'm thinking about one..

Good luck with the sale..

You sound like a jealous little fuck.

I think i will raise charity fund to buy this car :D . How long will it take to get enough btc to buy it :D ?
