I had this up as a feeler earlier and have decided to try and sell it. It is a 1997 328is, black with tan interior, sport/ cold weather package, 116k miles, 5spd. It has a scrape in the hood from someone backing into it and a scuff on the passenger door once again from someone side swiping it (college parking lot, apparently kids these days dont know how to park ;P) other than that it is in great condition. It is completely stock and has not been beaten on or molested with aftermarket parts. Never raced or anything of that sort. Was throwing the traction control because was having the typical caliper lock on the drivers side front, depending on how quickly I get interest I will probably have it taken care of very soon. I take very good care of this car (washed and waxed it religiously) I just need to get into something a little more affordable/ different, maybe even still sticking to the bimmers, I have too many other bills and payments. Im looking to get 9,000 obo.

Every car loan I’ve been approved for had a 5 year old or newer stipulation. when i bought my truck is was 7 years old. i got the loan though my credit union, and they just had a used car loan program that i went though, and didnt have a problem. i am not sure if ‘usual’ banks do that or not ---

Hmm… There’s a credit union that I believe I’m eligible for now that I’m at Praxair, I’ll check that out. Maybe I CAN get into something cheaper and/or better than my Jetta… ---
