I have an 01 325i with 166k, sport, dark grey on black, burns oil but has been reliable the past 3 years. Doubt that’s in your market though. Not really selling it but everything has its price.
Going to look at this one on Wednesday. Spoke with the owner, seems like a clean car, we’ll see.
As far as price is concerned…he’s listed at $6,995…KBB is around $5,550…What do you guys recommend as an offer? What’s realistic based on what is out there?
i mean are you shocked, Most of his cars have like 200k and are like 4 grand.
Sure they run and drive but i think they apeal to people who dont care about little things and want the flash about driving a BMW vs buying a 4,000 car which they can afford and is reliable.
If there is not a Binder full of receipts and maintenance records i would not pay more than 5k. At this point struts and shocks are all blown and warn. Cooling system is in need of being replaced. Fcabs are probably really loose. PLEASE take it and see if the rear subframe is ripping out. If you dont want to take it to bmw for a check take the trunk liner out and see if there are any cracks around the spare tire well.
x1000! Use that as a good bargaining chip on the price. Also look on the heat shield for the exhaust mani for discolor. That will tell you if the car is leaking oil from the VCG.
