For Sale, maybe?
« on: June 24, 2012, 04:52:08 PM »
Hey Guys,
I have a 91 318is, brilliant red, really good condition.  This is a Texas car that has always been garaged. I have had it for 16 years.  It has 149,000 miles.  It has been lowered with Eibach springs, Bilstein shocks, Katskin tan leather on the seats, they were originally cloth, new carpet, uncracked dash, AC works, new front end parts, TSW wheels.  The paint is in good condition and is original, it has always been waxed with Griot's products.   The car has always been professionally maintained.  This thing is fun to drive!

I'm thinking about selling it to reduce my fleet of vehicles but didn't know what it might be worth.  Any input?  I was kind of thinking $5k.  This thing is NOT a junker.  Is that too high?

Thanks!

Daniel Q

I think originality helps when asking top dollar for a car. Post some pics to show how low the car is and the rims as well. NADA lists your car as a classic so check out the values there.

Hey guys,

I'm an old guy and I'm not sure how to upload the photos I took from my iPhone.  Any clues would be helpful.

Thanks!!!!!

better than new!
« Reply #11 on: July 28, 2012, 10:38:00 AM »
that car is amazing. like new - but with better handling and some seriously delicious leather (and no cosmoline!).
we rust belters drool over southern stored-indoors rust-free cars.
i assume major service is up to date - timing, vac hoses etc?
if i owned it, i would have to have it up for sale for a very very long time before i took one penny less than 5k. that is an instant show car.
wheels are not my style, but that is personal preference. (still have the stock weaves?)
autotrader has the average e30 in the entire us selling at over 6k (granted some are majorly modded 10k plus cars, but still.
i think this is a serious bargin at 5k. you could fly in, have a vacation and drive home.
glws- the buyer seems like the lucky one.

Okay guys,

It's official.  It's for sale $5,000 firm.  I have also uploaded some other photos on photobucket (see above link).

You can look around and find lots of beaters that you can spend alot of money on or you can buy this and drive it.
