Michael. 2313 Report post Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Just spotted this very nice example, looks great in black - wheels probably not the best but it still looks the part. TM Link The white indicator lens seems to have a large impact on improving the rear end look of the touring E36. Edited April 3, 2013 by Michael.

Apex 693 Report post Posted April 3, 2013 I hope to have a look at this car on the weekend, have spoken with the guy selling it and he sounds very genuine, car has had a lot of money spent on it. I have not seen it so I'm not sure where I would think a reasonable offer would be, would have to account that I would be buying new wheels and selling the ones that are on it. Do we think somewhere around $8,500 would be reasonable? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do we think somewhere around $8,500 would be reasonable? I'd say so.. I mean a bog standard 328i touring would sell for 6k on a cheap day, so for a full motorsport kit and m sport seats, M3 mirrors (if there are genuine) would be worth 2.5-3k at least! 8500-9000 would be a fair range for what has been on recently. Definitely change the wheels though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do we think somewhere around $8,500 would be reasonable? It's hard to say as they aren't exactly a common vehicle in this part of the world. Personally for $8500, I would want an extra pedal. I paid less than $3500 for mine although it's a tad rough on the outside, it has a reasonable service history. Throw in a motorsport kit, some maintance and a polish, we would have similar cars for under 5k. I guess it comes down to how much value you place on it being factory built rather than garage built. Good luck Edited April 4, 2013 by Gaz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted April 4, 2013 I value factory built, Motorsport, Touring, NZ new... the two pedals is not ideal but it will be a daily and I have other toys with three pedals so its not a deal breaker. Its a real shame that it had those funny wheels on it, a pain TBH. I wonder if those wheels are worth anything to anyone, seeing they fit Commodores and other cars I may get a few bucks for them on TM to help fund some nice OEM wheels. Anyone got any OEM BMW stagared E36 M3 Evolution wheels around they want to part with? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD13 492 Report post Posted April 4, 2013 They might look ok painted? The thing about those wheels that bugs me is the chrome brightness... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted April 7, 2013 Waste of time. The photo's look to have been taken years ago as the car is nowhere near as mint as it looks in those pictures. Why would you use old photo's to advertise a car? Don't get it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted April 8, 2013 Its just a waste of peoples time, sure, use an old photo if you have nothing else but state its an old photo and price the car accordingly, the way this is pictured, priced and described you would expect it to be quite mint and enthusiast owned...or perhaps I am unreasonable and fussy? Going back to waiting patiently for a nice BMW to pop up for sale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted April 8, 2013 Hey Graham, what did the owner have to say about the actual condition vs photos? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apex 693 Report post Posted April 9, 2013 The owner who listed it with photo's has moved overseas and the guy I met with was a middle man, he was non the wiser to the cars condition and is only helping out so not really his problem. I wish them luck with the sale. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
