The seller re-wrote the ad based on what was said here on the forum:

https://appleton.craigslist.org/cto/d/2011-bmw-528i/6765554534.html

My previous comment about the car being a "deferred maintenance nightmare" was inappropriate, I apologized to the seller for that.  That came out because I consider the water pump/thermostat, coil packs and oil filter housing gasket on N52's to be "maintenance" and not "repairs" since pretty much ALL of them will need to be done at some point.  Whoever buys this car will have those to look forward to, more than likely sooner rather than later.  Just because those haven't been done, doesn't mean it's a bad car or that the seller wasn't properly maintaining it.

He still didnt take our advice and lower the price. Dont think his FS ad is going to matter is he is still asking 9 or 10k. He should be asking 8500 and take anything above 7k

This looks like a pretty fair price to me, any opinions?

Not a bad price but not a very desirable car on the whole. Melbourne is a low production color, and 6mt is nice, but what kills this car is beige interior and lack of CF roof which for many people wanting a E92 with a stick, is important to have the CF roof. What's ridiculous is that they actually paid to option out of it because the CF roof was standard equipment on the E92 M3. Lastly being a pre-LCI is kinda meh. 

But for someone who wants a low mileage V8 M3, it is definitely not a bad price at all.

I've seen this car around, it looks super clean. Seems like a decent deal for that price

Ad says parking sensors, none visible.
Also says running boards. Which is just an odd thing to say.
Seeing that the pictures are pictures of a screen, I would assume it's fake.

Dude is on crack.

"No rust"... if I can visibly see multiple areas of rust from small pictures, I can only imagine what I'd find in person.

Also, his desired list of trades are all worth way more than this car, but he has the audacity to say "might have to add cash on your end".

Was this a vert only color? I feel like I would not like this color on a coupe, but the vert works really well.

Dont quote me here, but It was available starting in 1991, I belive it was additional option you paid for.  v
