Avenged.SSE 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2008 Welll... I was looking on trademe and I came across this thing... http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-182229914.htm (reason I called it a kiddie car is because I find it difficult to believe a sensible adult would do this to their car lol)... but anyway.... there's a top bid of $9k, whereas this auction, http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/C...n-180046318.htm is selling a facelifted 520i for $11k!! (which horrifies me because this basically means they are worthless ) so is the dude who bid on the first auction completely out of his mind or what - $2k difference for extra features, upgrade electrics, less mileage and 5 years newer O.O?

Tomo 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2008 (edited) plus the facelift 520i is the updated 2.2L engine, i agree theres no value added with the prefacelift other than the "gangsta" look. funny the condensation on the inside of the prefacelift's headlights as well...

I'm sure that thing he's selling drives like a dream, being minimally serviced and corners cut in every possible way to conserve on cash... Moral of the story... never buy a car of this caliber Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CamB 48 Report post Posted October 22, 2008 Surely there are more than 10. I have to laugh at the "destroying the BMW image/look". Given you can buy a semi decent E30 or E34 for about $3k I'm not sure there is much "image" left in them. Given how poorly such a (stock) E30 or E34 in that price range drives (unless its a very well maintained one), I am not sure there is much driving pleasure either Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I seen an escalade yesterday (new one) doing a U-Turn at a normal speed & it looked like it was going to roll (violently & kill several people) Classic example of true american rubbish.
