Talking should I pull the trigger?

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
I found a guy selling a M3 cf roof. Premium and tech with fox red int. Has a clean title but one reported parking lot incident where rear quarter panel was fixed. Car looks immaculate always garaged and has a clean title. Hes asking 35.5 out the door. Does this sound like a good deal? The reported incident is my only concern as it has all maintenance records but he told me it only costed 500 to fix and was very minor. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks in advance.


Respectfully,

M3 troll. Lol

Mileage?

Did you ask for pics of the damage? Make sure you do a PPI.

I dont know how to post pics but it looks immaculate.

For car sales ethics; who usually pays for the inspection? Buyer or seller? Thx

I understand you're excited to be in the market for an E9x M3 and I can't think of a better online resource to that end than m3post. That being said, would you please consider posting your threads in the correct subforum? This is at least your third in as many days that was incorrectly started in 'Cars for sale/wanted/trade' Thanks

An accident always drops a cars price $1k-$3k. BMW buyers are pretty picky and when you go to sell it later it gets a bit hard. People will always say it was a small accident... Unless you have photo proof i would consider it was a large accident.

Yours have tech package and cf roof? Nice looking car. I was kind of looking for a white one.

Car hunting has become a headache for me . But being on the forums has given me plenty good laughs.

Thanks... same thing my brother told me... car isnt salvage but youre right. If im spending that much maybe I should just keep holding out for one with no incidents. Alpine white m3's with cf roof in cali go fast. They get bought within 1-2 days from listing when they are fairly priced.

I'd sell you mine for $36,500, I'm in Phoenix. E92, Premium Package, DCT, Carbon Roof, EDC. It's Silverstone Metallic II and no tech package but it only has 42k miles and like new tires. Only 6 hours away, save shipping. No accidents!

My brother and many cool folks on here advised me to assume the hit was serious since there arent any pictures available. I did not follow through with the buy. I was going to use golden shipping or something like that. The seller recommended them. But im back to the tdrawing board.
