i would have picked up that 540i/6 yesterday if i had room for it.  great deal if you dont mind the little rust spots. Fixing should be cheap - brake booster:$100, tie rods $50, figure out the CEL, $100-500.

the black leather sport seats and transmission are worth $1500 alone.

anyje know this car??

wondering if it has any parts I may want/need?

sunroof panel, passenger fender, etc

[Earl]

Good deal for everything that car has. Those vaders even look nice

[wasnt m3]

Better go get it before someone else on here does...there is definitely money to be made on that one.

It appears to be sitting at Concours.

I don't have anywhere to put a whole  car!

3 plus a motorcycle and a  work truck=full garage and driveway.

Same problem...probably saves me though from the e30 addiction really running amok.

[m42b32]

Having 4 cars (3 of which aren't road worthy) and one parking spot has really helped curb the addiction...

It's OK though, he says to text, but no number.  No one will be getting it.

[YoungCR]

Didn't see the link but I assume that was Scott's e30 which I saw was sold this morning on fb. Good daily, but was hiding a lot of flaws with detailing magic haha although he would've been honest about that.

I text him last night and never heard back. So that makes sense then

NP all day long!  That's a great little project!

E24 is on my list of cars I need to own before I die, and it's a manual, so yes.

[reckedhim]

Just don't low-ball the seller or you face ridicule.

e39 M5 for $10.5k.

[wasnt m3]

An M5 for $10.5k is one I'd stay away from. In the end, it'll be cheaper to own an actual nice, low mileage example. I had the opportunity three times now to buy for well under 10k, the maintenance costs are simply not worth it on a higher mileage car.

[REKIII]

I've been waiting to grab one around $4K.  They come up periodically, but are usually too far away.  If it runs, use it as a beater for awhile, if it doesn't keep the engine for a spare.

That one at 10.5 isn't horrible.  It's too bad none of the face lift mods were done.  the body looks clean.

[straight6pwr]

yeah i knew a guy who bought an e39 m5 for a 'good deal', then sold it a month later because it needed a vanos rebuild and new tires and i don't think he realized that would cost $4k or so.

[REKIII]

So many people fail to realize they are buying an $80K car.  Some maintenance costs, regardless of the 'deal' you get.  I'm in an 39 M5 group on FB.  It's sickening what these guys try to do.  "where is the cheapest I can get a new windshield washer sprayer?  The $7 one at autozone is just too much"
