Ive message the guy with the E46 wagon 3 times now with no response. I would also note that the price went up..

With all the damage on the body it shouldn't be worth much more.... The only thing that makes the car is the red interior.

Great candidate to rescue though

That one was listed last week for about the same price. Apparently it was too much of a project for whomever bought it.

[Jdesign]

Yeah I could see that. There has been better examples for a touch more.

Looks decently nice for the price (also Modena interior)

I'm gonna hit that guy up. Would be a good project.

I could help but to laugh when reading the ad....

Great LS swap candidate

[Jdesign]

Its a hit or miss deal imo. Sure its cheap for the miles, but it could also need an entire new motor. Its a damn gamble.

With that said, I had a friend pick a 335i coupe up this weekend for $4k and all it need was coolant LOL.

Agreed. Could be something simple, could be the whole motor. Which I know from experience are very expensive to swap out after all miscellaneous related items.

[Jdesign]

Still. A new long block is what? $1500? 

You would still have a $4500 fairly low mileage 335i

I saw this ad the other day and was considering buying it as well to swap (fix and sell) or make it a good daily but with the headgasket being blown due to overheating I was a little skeptical about the motor having more serious issues (really warped or cracked head, blown motor, etc.)

I paid $2500 for one with 90k miles. No turbos. Plus a core charge. They're not cheap.

So $5500 and that's without labor and all the other unknowns(coolant, gaskets, etc).. Hmmm I think I will pass. Most cars I go look at in Chicago are 7 times worse when you get there.

Yeah, it's on the borderline of a good deal, depending on what kind of project it is. He's firm on the price. I'm gonna sleep on it.
