View Full Version : My friend is thinking of buying this car
Hooxplow 07-29-2005, 03:34 PM He is thinking about trading his Impreza 2.5 RS for this M3 (http://autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=182461994&dealer_id=1178843&car_year=1999&make=BMW&distance=25&lang=en&max_price=&model=M3&end_year=2006&min_price=&certified=&address=84047&search_type=both&advanced=&start_year=1995&isp=y&cardist=0#vdptop) and wants to know if any of you know anything about this car. We drove it today and it seemed pretty solid, but if any of you know about the history on this thing it might be helpful. I think the price is a bit steep, what does a 99 with 96k miles go for?
Thanks
Jack

Jack, this car has been tossed around.
I have seen it at 3 dealerships in less than 2 years. (while I was shopping for mine.) I recognize those ghey wheels anywhere.
Once on state in murray, once in Park City, and now back on State in midvale. Something is amiss.
He should pass on it.
(have JB actually look at it, I guarantee there is a major defect.)
Hooxplow 07-29-2005, 04:24 PM oh well, I knew it was too easy. Thanks Matt, I'll tell him to keep looking.
atekt 07-29-2005, 04:38 PM ya i looked at it at one dealer then it was gone and i saw it at another,no go!
hethoox 07-29-2005, 05:21 PM Yea I'm Jacks buddies Matt that was actually looking to buy it, other then the beat rims it seemed to run pretty well. Oh well, Ill take your guys word for it, Thanks fellas!

DeanP 07-29-2005, 05:38 PM I've heard the drivetrain and gearbox are the weak llink, especially if dail up the boost.

Cameron Hauck 07-29-2005, 06:52 PM I got mad at the guy I talked to about that car, cause he wouldn't tell me a price, I asked like seven times and he kept saying it was a good deal, it's under book, you'll love it, its clean come look. Then he had the nerve to ask me how much I make, so he wasn't wasting his time, I told him he was a focking clown ass, except with a U.

I love it when they ask that. My answer is always, more then you ... and I was going to pay cash ... but now you are wasting my time.
