Identified the M3 I currently own about two years ago, got in touch with the seller on a Monday. He agreed to a pre purchase inspection on Wednesday, and on Thursday I sent him a photo of the certified bank check from my credit union, and he sent me a picture of the title.
Friday I rented a car one way, and (early) Saturday AM I drove about 7 hours to the rental car office near his house where he picked me up. Gave him the check and he signed over the title and I drove it home.
Keep in mind this was full COVID-19 timeframe, and I was very honest with him every step of the way. With each step I tried to build creditability by doing exactly what I said I was going to do and it worked out.
Good luck with your search ...
