i found this car and it look real good body wise plus it has low miles so do you think the price is fair or should i try to go down with the price. also how low do you think i can go?

price sounds very reasonable for the car, i say go for it, looks like a nice find

spiff325is · 03-01-2005, 09:35 PM

115k, thats a score in my book, and for the condition, that is a very good price(the condition is very good).

tyro2001 · 03-01-2005, 09:45 PM

SOLD!! (kinda)

i might see if the dealer finances or il get a loan from the bank
im broke

go check the car out nice and early in the mornin
if she starts first shot, good stuff, take it for a spin
on a nice long straight, burn her around 160-170 km/h
80-90 mph for about 1km when you back of the accelerator.
Look in the review for white smoke, if none good stuff!

Price looks, body look neat, should be a good buy!
Good Luck

dont worry about that crap, you would know if it blows white smoke cause it would do it all the time, but it says the car is sold now

tyro2001 · 03-02-2005, 08:56 PM

i know i was too late

oh well i know one more car that i might be getting 89 325i with 204k, it needs some cosmetic work so il be busy with it.

high mileage.... little more risky

e30fanm3 · 03-03-2005, 04:11 PM

if it was maintained correctly then mileage isnt that big of a deal, of course it will bring the price down which is good

spiff325is · 03-04-2005, 11:21 AM

my car had 195k when ibaught it, and i sold it at 205k, and it still pulled really strong until redline.

I think mileage doesn t have to be a problem, the only question is the maintenance history of this car ( I mean: was the last owner consequent with maintenance of the car)

also drive a test drive with the car, spin it up to the red line, and test the brakes with an emergency stop.

check also the steering of the car
