Anyway, thread should be changed to Sold.

Got an email. They sold it for 15.5k. Funny, as I offered him more in March but I guess at that time he was too proud to take my offer. I offered 16k at the beginning of March. People are odd...

No thanks on black. Appreciate it though.

Congrats. Glad people are asking reasonable amounts for their cars.

Yep, this is meant to be a toy I love so might as well wait for the toy I want.

Wife asked me why I can't wait to find one with a grey leather or natural brown leather interior. She was not impressed with the quality of the alcantara in that car. Guess this one is off the map...

Looks like a great car. If you were around San Diego I woulda been knocking at your door already.

The dealer they want to look at the car is the same crew that's handled by previous 3 BMWs while in warranty, so I'm fine with it. Plus it's actually easier than getting it to the mechanic I want to...

Looked at it:
Very pretty in person.
Some rock chips on the fenders.
Slight scratch on passenger lower door panel. Spotted another longish scratch on the back driver's side lower quarter panel.

Will go check it out tomorrow. Carfax seems okay. It sold as a Certified BMW a couple years ago in San Diego. Owner didn't put many miles on it.

Don't consider it a steal for 17k. 16k it's a good bet, as I'll need 1k in work done to it. 17k...no.

Nice he dropped the price. If he gets down to 16 I may...

Thanks for the offer. I'll see what he replies with in his email.

Wow, that does look great. Will contact.

If not for the supercharger I'd be interested...

How much was the cost of the cooling for you?

Sorry but the 2005 has more features, it's a CI and it's 2 years newer. This car is a 2003. The original post is wrong. I got the VIN and ran it...

Wondering if the seller is coming to his senses yet. Someone in San Marcos has a 2005 Ci with manual, 96k miles and that guy only wants 17.9k. Still too high but at least it's a 2005.

Carfax didn't show it as a salvage but man does it have some fishy history.

After hearing from a few people my offer seems a bit high still. Guessing the owner is stuck on a value so I'm moving on.

Yeah carfax set off alarm bells. How could it have only been driven 4k miles in 4 years?

Found on craigslist. Seems like a good deal. Anyone come across this one before?

Premium, zhp, black, manual, 37k miles.

Vin:...

It's in nice shape. I just expect to dump 1k into it for needed preventative maintenance. I told him 16k today. The current answer is that the owner wants 18k.

He said if the owner doesn't...

Cooling system hasn't been done. Brakes, etc have.

Just heard back and he won't take less than asking price until they try to sell it longer. Shrug.
