Hah, it's a deal, and if I win, I'll give it to you!
-
I just got the xdelete app for this, you can now select RWD only, AWD Sport (RWD heavy biased), Snow XDrive and custom AWD ratios. In RWD mode its basically a lifted F10 M5! Also put in brand new Bosch ignition coils all round. The app is keyed to this vehicle (and cost like $160) so sold with it.

As per title just needs to be working!

I relayed this and my wife simply said "he is correct though.." lol
-
FYI, been offered $17k, which Id let it go at, but told potential buyer Id wait a week (and Im putting in all new ignition coils in meantime anyhow), so any offers above that?
-
Yeah it blows my mind that people ask the same or more for some (not all of course) 3.0d and 50i versions yet new these are like 50-80% more expensive. Suppose the X5M and X6M doesnt have the same appeal as the M5, as the M5 of a model tends to maintain some distance from a 530d for instance.

Its actually me that selling it, forgot to post here earlier! https://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=5015937568 Its a monster of a thing. Only selling as Im hoping to put money towards an i8. Full service (plugs, oil, filters) and new rear, premium (Arnott) air suspension. No reserve, accepting bids form $17.5k.

A 4.6is would be amazing in that chassis with a manual, what a great idea!
-
Hah, I think I mentioned to you on there before I had an 850CSi but would go manual 840i msport given the choice again!
-
I brought in an 850CSi too (2013), from Ireland. Fjord Grey with light grey interior. Sold it for $38k about 6yrs ago now. It was blowing smoke (known to seller, had compression check, slipped rings) when sold and unfortunately on the trip to its new home the engine seized due to lack of oil (he burned that much of it on the trip home, it was topped up before sale). I don't think its yet made it back onto the road. Why would it need a bare metal respray in your opinion? Personally, I wouldnt pay anywhere close to $50k as presented, but I guess we shall see. PS: All CSi's are manual! 😛
-
There were two, this one maybe around $9k: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/68863-e53-x5is-a-rare-beast/ And the one I was following on Trade Me got bit up to $7.5k I think. Which to me suggests and older, smaller engine (I know its more special but still) 4.6 with more K's is something like a $5.5 to $6.5k proposition not a $10k one, personally.
-
I was looking at it too... but its like $3k and thousands more k's than the later 4.8is recently sold for. I think its like double the price it should be, IMO.
-
Sorry I dont have them any longer!
-
Aside from the exhaust tips, Id say it is pretty tasteful. Those are an eyesore though and bit silly on a baby engine BMW.
-
That looks well cared for, really nice, GLWS, looks to have good interest in auction already!
