I cannot figure out how to search well within FB marketplace. It's maddening! When I put in a term like "swap" or "v8", it shows me everything within MP that matches the keyword. If I try to refine the search to just vehicles, it erases my keyword!
Does anyone have any search tips on how to find potential Challenge cars within MP?? It feels like CL is getting weaker on the car front unfortunately.
I've used "racecar" and "chassis" to dig up some gems.
It's E36 M3. Really. It's just terrible.
Find some for sale groups that will help filter things to what you're interested in as that helps.
Otherwise, just treat it as a beta that works sorta well enough to sorta work and don't take it too seriously.
Hit F5 and pray.

Click vehicles first, then type your keyword and hit enter.
Keep using it, keep experimenting. I second the use of groups.
It is really a horrible interface, but it is the most utilized. Offerup sucks. Marketplace sucks. I miss craigslist, but craigslist is pretty well dead.
FYI if you change the 'sort by' from Recommended to By Date it functions a lot more like CL.
As much as I hate FB, I don't find searching for vehicles to be any more difficult than CL
Don't forget to search by mis-spellings. There's always a Camero out there.
