whats up? I have been looking at a car that is in NJ and was wondering if anyone would be willing to go check it out. I live in VA and it would be about a 5-6 hour drive for me, and with me not having alot of time or extra money on hand, I don't really want to go make the trip unless it seems like a good/solid car.

here is a link to the car:http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=230635153&dealer_id=100003726&car_year=1995&marketZipError=false&awsp=false&search_type=both&num_records=&keywordsfyc=&make=BMW&transmission=Manual&model=M3&distance=500&make2=&address=22901&default_sort=priceDESC&advanced=y&certified=&max_mileage=&max_price=11000&sort_type=priceDESC&min_price=&body_code=0&end_year=1999&keywordsrep=&color=&start_year=1981&drive=&search_lang=en&page_location=findacar%3A%3Aispsearchform&engine=&fuel=&doors=&style_flag=1&cardist=240&LNX=ESTAFSRCHUSDTEXT

and the address: 1847 Burlington Mt Holly Road
Westampton, NJ 08060

any help would be great, or even just opinions on the car.

Thanks,
Brandon

something gotta be wrong with this one, 24k miles, for 10k? Sounds too good to be true!. Hell I have seen some on this blog with way more miles, in horrible shape for more moeny than that one.

I bet you that 95 lasts longer than your 330.........mechanically and any other way you can think of.

That place is right down the street from my house. I bought my 540i there, They are a reputable dealer here in NJ been around for years and they have more than one location here in the state...

If you read the description, the speedo/odo was changed, so true mileage unknown...

My plan was to go look a t the car, and take it somewhere else for a a PPI. Do you think I should still try and do that even if this is a "reputable" dealer? They might not let me do it anyways.

They should have no problem with you doing a PPI, I recommend De Simone BMW in Mt. Laurel, they would be the closest dealership.

I just talked to the guy, its sold.

FTL. Keep looking. You'll find something better and closer.

Probably right ,I really wanted a V8...but this is my first BMW purchase ..I am reading Bimmer mag and The E23 1986 sounds like the most reliable ..school me:redspotI am a noob to the brand

I figured I would just post this in here again instead of starting a new thread.

Pretty much I am in the same situation as before. I found this M3 on cars.com, here is there webpage http://www.cars.com/m2autogroup/ and the address 414 ROSHELLE STREET Linden, NJ 07036. If anyone lives around there that could possibly check it out, it would be great! link to the car http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...1&aff=national (http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp;jsessionid=QI0SDAJBR2E1DLAYIEYU2VA?tab= map&paId=135114559&actLog=true&tracktype=usedcc&pageNumber=0&numResultsPerPage=50&largeNumResultsPerPage=0&sortorder=descending&sortfield=PRICE+descending&certifiedOnly=false&criteria=K-%7CE-%7CM-_5_%7CB-11000%7CD-_47_%7CN-N%7CR-250%7CI-1%7CP-PRICE+descending%7CQ-descending%7CZ-22901&aff=national)
It seems like a great deal.
