Fredo's CL findings

https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?listingId=581999683

Seller says : "I will be requiring proof of ID and insurance, as well as a 500 dollar non-refundable down payment prior to any pre-purchase test drives."

I believe that touring will be on sale for a LONG time.

I'm just catching up on this thread and saw this comment fredo had posted from a guy selling his car. I see this comment and I will pass on the car if I'm not within driving distance to check the car out in person. I can understand by doing this the seller is only interested in someone serious about buying his car however there are many more cars to choose from out there where you won't have to provide a non-refundable $500 deposit just to test drive a car....

This Touring has Adaptive Cruise making it a rare BMW from that era.

[alexandre]

I've found the Adaptive suspension is pretty rare too and this car has it. Big fan of it on mine, the car handles super well. Solid deal at that price, just gotta watch for transfer case issues on the 2014-2015 models.

Oh, man! Sorry to hear the seller misrepresented the car. Did you decide to pass?

[GeorgeH]

Luckily we couldn't agree on a price BEFORE I drove down there so I'm only out a couple minutes of my time. I told him I'm a buyer at $500 but honestly it's probably not even worth that considering he probably overheated it too.

Said he had 150 messages but here it is 3 days later and he still has it...

[///Mark_D]

That really sucks, what a waste of time. I don't understand sellers like that... just post pics of the car as it actually is and stop wasting people's time by misrepresenting it.

^ Price reduced to $7,900. From ad:

*Reduced Price for a quick sale*
Please do not contact me if you are not looking to purchase at my ask price. This is the lowest priced Alpine White on Natural Brown Zhp in the market. 300 White ZHP sedans produced with only 33 in natural brown interior.

The good:
Between 150k miles and currently, these are the following preemptive maintenances performed:
-Engine compression test 185-195 on each cylinder
-Transmission fluid & filter, changed twice
-Differential fluid
-Brake fluid
-Front right wheel bearing replaced
-VANOS replacement, rebuilt by Dr Vanos and installed by A.D Automotive
-Valve cover gasket
-Oil filter housing gasket
-Oil pan gasket
-New engine-mounts
-Oil & filter replaced
-Cabin air filter
-Air box filter
-Changed fuel filter
-Radiator, Water pump & Thermostat, Expansion tank & all coolant hoses
-Tensioner, Idler pulley, & every belt
-Windshield washer pump & grommet replaced
-Leather treatment and driver's seat restored
-New shocks, bump stops, & mounts
-New struts, bump stops, & mounts
-New RTABs
-Four-wheel alignment
-Oil change filter o-rings 28 October 2023 @ 158k
-New taillight bulbs and turn signal bulbs

The not so good:
She's a 10 out of 10 from 10 feet away. Paint has no clear coat fading, but here's the following:

- Bottom of front bumper has scuffs
- Rear bumper has touch up spots from prior back up dings but isn't the best job
- Passenger bottom rocker panel has a small dent & also has touch up spots that aren't to the best quality
- Driver front fender looks to have a dent that was removed with PDR but slightly shows the correction
- A pillar & B pillar are a bit tired
- Rear Headliner starting to sag a little
- Volume knob is inop. Control volume thru steering buttons

Keep in mind. It's a 20 yr old BMW with almost 160k miles. The caveat is the car drives absolutely fantastic. Mechanically sound. Absolutely no leaks. This is a driver's car.

This AW sedan would look great next to your AW touring.

[jdauria]

I saw that AW in person. Seller is knowledgeable and provides good detail. Like he said, its definitely showing its age. I almost bought it but he didn't seem keen on negotiating. If he would've came down to $6k I would've scooped it up. There is definitely paint work in a few areas. I ended up buying a twin AW/NB a few hours away for a couple thousand less. Each had there pros & cons. Pretty cool to see 2 out of the 33 ever made within a few hours of each other.

Definitely was not the lowest AW/NB for sale in country, as I just scooped that one up LOL. But, maybe its the lowest for sale now.
