Sweet deal for that price. I mean no that is not a good deal. You should send me that guys location and I will take care of that car for you. J/K . You should also have your mechanic check it out and see if there is anything wrong with it, before you buy that car.

Seems decent. Try and knock another $1500 off and do a CIC iDrive retrofit, and you'll have a really sweet car.

On a car like this I wouldn't worry about a ppi because it has most likely been maintained well under warranty but still better safe than sorry. A prepurchase inspection is when you take the car to a dealer for example and they charge a fee and tell you the condition of the car and what is wrong or needs replacing. Usually thorough so that it covers all the areas of the car. You can get them done at third party shops or mod shops as well

They're also useful for discovering prior accident damage.

Looks like a greg price ... if I needed a car my offer would be $35 firm ... if they go for it then I would get it, if not I would pay for the asking price ... provided it has a clean BMW inspection report that would list what work if any is required in the bear future.

Good luck to you!

Case in point ... when I sold my e46 the request was a full BMW inspection ... one rear spring was broken and needed replacement, once I had it repaired I got my asking price.

as others have said, that seems like a good deal for the mileage if it's in good shape which it sounds like it is. good luck.

I would do one..any BMW dealer can do a PPI... I think they charge $100 - $150, they check out the car throughly let you know if there are any mechanical issues prior to buying the car

You can usually ask the sale to be contingent on passing a PPI

ya i was concerned about the cic idrive so maybe if he goes lower on his price that would be an awesome deal.

Thank you guys I will look around for a local dealership close to where he lives so I can have the car inspected just in case.
