I like the "Is the owner dead?" comment which is very valid. That's my guess, dead owner.

nmulax · 10-23-2008, 02:03 PM

Owner's gotta either be dead, hospitalized, or left the country and not keen on returning.

MJC///M3 · 10-23-2008, 02:04 PM

what a shame

hks786 · 10-23-2008, 02:11 PM

thats a sin! unless the owner really is dead or in hospital...

DougLikesBMW · 10-23-2008, 03:39 PM

Someone should break into it...It's a free car for the taking.

!Xoible · 10-23-2008, 03:41 PM

the color explains it. if i had money to spare i would buy one in that color, and sparkling graphite and let them rot like that to send a message to BMW to discontinue those fugly colors

and yeah I think the owner left the country. . .seeee ya.

CSL-Fanatik · 10-23-2008, 07:38 PM

Come on Guys! Give this guy a break. He simply has not driven the car to the car wash because he couldn't see the way from inside.... That's all.

TK-421 · 10-23-2008, 09:06 PM

It said it has Dubai plates, so maybe it belongs to a sultan with cars higher up in the food chain and forgot about about it. Still,

isn't that the official language?

edit: nvm it's just widely used

badfish · 10-24-2008, 01:20 AM

So the dude probably has a $25,000,000 yacht and something like the M6 isn't worth very much to him. He's allowed to buy and burn cars as long as he can afford the habit.

nicosusername · 10-24-2008, 02:03 AM

its in dubai - this is probably just like a civic to the owner and hes probably driving his veyrons, enzos and slrs instead. maybe even forgot about this...

uabimmer · 10-24-2008, 02:29 AM

^ +1

parked it and forgot about it.... thats my guess

Deda · 10-24-2008, 02:29 AM

i like that color,looks amazing on that car..ofcourse when is clean!

zetaxi165 · 10-24-2008, 04:12 AM

First - Everyone in Dubai speaks English - Dubai is 80% expatriates and only 20% local population.

Second - this is a very common occurrence in Dubai. If an expat is planning a permanent move back home and they owe more money on the car than its worth - they just drive the car upto the bank's parking lot and leave it. Then they board the plane and its good bye.

p.s: This is not a sheikh's or rich guy's car - they generally have 4, 3, 2 or 1 digit number plates (these sometimes are more expensive than the car).

I actually think the colour would look great with more red tone. If I was getting the M6 it would be white or SS
