slidebite posted:I also love their mechanical diagnosis There are so many loving ads like that. I'm looking for an e30 or e36 bmw 325is, and it's ridiculous trying to find one. Half of the ads are "just needs xxx part, only 35 from the dealer". That's pretty much a huge warning sign to completely disregard the car if they haven't even done a "simple" fix. sirr0bin posted:http://winnipeg.en.craigslist.ca/cto/799040674.html I don't know how it works in winnipeg, but out in nova scotia anything that old is worth 1000 if it has a new inspection, and about nothing more unless it's something special.

2005 330Ci - 26,800 CAD Sure, it's in great shape, but a slightly older (02-04) m3 will sell for LESS with the same mileage. A realistic price is about 10,000 less.

slidebite posted:I don't know what it is, but in general Canadian BMWs are grotesquely overpriced in the vast majority of listings I've seen. If you're looking at US prices the comparison doesn't really work - they cost more here in the first place, there are fewer of them left (especially in atlantic canada) and the used ones tend to hold value much better. A nice late-model e36 coupe is still gonna be 5-7k. Of course, that one is just insane. I count 4 e46 m3s in my city that cost less.

text from an ad for a 540i:quote:here is my 1997 540 1, it is fully loaded with every option you can imagine, from heated steering wheel, power telescopic and tilt, heated leather, 6 way power seats a 200 watt , 6 cd changer, the motor is a powerful v-8 with 324 foot-pounds @ 3,600 RPM (or 222 hp at this RPM). This is more potent than almost anything. For instance, the 2006 Aston Martin V8 Vantage ($110,000) has only 302 ft-lbs and the 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera S ($79,100) has only 295 foot-pounds. Torque is what accelerates a car, not horsepower. Horsepower only relates to top speed, and cars today are electronically limited for top speed so horsepower is irrelevant even if you could drive anywhere near top speed.

For that price, I could buy any one of the following: E36 M3, E46 330i, E34 M5, E39 540i Sport, etc. E30s have their appeal but you have to be mental to think they are rare enough to be worth 12k. Throw in another few thousand and you could have a proper E30 M3 which WILL hold its value.
