Might buy this 05 330ci. Opinions?

[daniellejuice]

Saw this baby for sale a a local lot and went to take a look yesterday. The people seem really great and they let me take it and test it out for the next two days. Its got a few deep scratches on the back bumper, good tread, nice sound, drives great. Pet hair in the carpet though. 80k miles, asking $14k for it. Still under warranty.

In the engine bay, there is an empty chamber at the top left corner; is that normal or is something missing from it?
Anything I should check out before buying on a high mileage 05 330? Advice?

Do they have service records and carfax? It looks nice...

The empty space is normal. That is where the battery goes in some Euro 4-cylinder models.

Pros:
- its a 330
- The white is awesome
- looks like its been taken care of, or at least cleaned well
- 05's are awesome
- warrenty

Cons:
- Auto
- no sport seats
- aftermarket deck
- oh and its in miles (whats the conversion to Km's).....In that case offer less...

I bought a 325ci & would love to have the 330, she rips good. Hope it works out. GL
