Mikal 4 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 So long story short... I have been looking at 328i coupes for a while now, test driven a few and chosen the one I want. But during this process my mother decided she also likes the e36 coupes, then my father decides maybe Mum needs a new car. The result... Mums 1997 328i coupe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fingers crossed. I've been trying to get my parents to buy a BMW for years, ever since I got the e30 back in 2005. Finally achieved that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 34 Report post Posted February 12, 2009 Well I guess the cats out of the bag. Been a bit of that going on. Really good price! A year or so ago when Pam and Gus went to the UK, I think she was asking around $12k for hers and we all thought it was priced well. I think you got a manual for around the price of an auto.
