I care. Not spending 30k on a car that was 20k less than a month ago and would make sure others dont get ripped off either. That's a "healthy forum culture".

To me people can ask whatever price they like as is their right, just like people have to right to freedom of information in these situations. 

Interesting view points. Out of curiosity, where do people sit on flipping cars for profit?

I'm all for freedom of information, so people can make informed decisions.

People (especially forum members) should be free to post what it sold for in the recent or far past, or history of ownership if known by other members etc. so that other members aren't buying blind.

At the same time, with complete information, people are entitled to buy and sell whatever they want at a price they think it is worth. If the market is there for the car, won't the market determine the selling price of the car?

I mean for a tidy E39 M5, what is it worth irrespective of what it sold for? I would guess more than $20k.

And considering there aren't any others up for sale in NZ at the moment, what would make a E39 M5 at around $30k a rip-off? If it was sold earlier at $20k, how much time would have to pass to make it "not a rip-off" in your opinion?

Probably would sell straight away if it included some packs of toilet paper.

That comment section. Warriors vs White Knights.

I'm pretty sure one of those white knights would let you have a turn on his Mrs if you sell it for that much (which you probably will). 

For a moderator you're pretty loose with keeping the forum rules. I thought Bimmersport were trying to build a healthy forum culture rather than try tear into people.

I'm mates with Brad and posted on TradeMe that cause I thought some of the comments were dumb ones from Warriors. Didn't need to get personal about a TradeMe comment, just keep it civil.

Thanks Dave.

Look up the VIN on Realoem to match the part number

Thanks for the recommendation. It's been super helpful for finding the correct product number.

Unfortunately the normal sites for oem parts (ecs or pelican parts) can't stock it due to it being a european part.

Damn, didn't realize. I guess I'll cancel that order. 

Hi,

My cable attaching the accelerator pedal to throttle body is broken. Anyone have one for sale? 

I've purchased a brand new one from the States (at half the cost of getting one through BMW NZ) but it'll take a few weeks to arrive so looking for one in the meantime. 

Thanks,

Kieran

PM'd you. 

So does any one know if there are any companies who can supply this for cheap?

Hi,

Looking to buy a E36 manual ZF driveshaft. Anyone have one or know where I could get one made for a good price? 

Cheers

So no exhaust systems for sale atm?

Hi,

I'm new to the forums / BMW ownership but have just purchased an automatic 1996 E36 328i Coupe recently. Converting it to a manual with a ZF box I picked up.

Looking to do some basic mods and was wondering if anyone has any of the following for sale atm.

- aftermarket exhaust system

- coilovers

Let me know what you guys have lying around.
