I would pay no more than $2500 for that car.
ummm...do not buy! read his feedack, 95% and about one out of 5 are renegged, his rating is about 70%
I agree with Jeff. Credibility is also a MAJOR factor that should not be overlooked. His crediblity is shaky to say the least and many similar types of complaints. If you end up with the car, there could be no telling what kinds of problems are not being disclosed or ignored. Just the headaches over resolving those problems is not worth it. The amount of $$ poured into it after the fact could be in the thousands...in which case, you could have gotten something more sound and in better shape. Control the impluse to buy rubbish and have patience to look for the one that will make happy for a long time.Quote:

i would be going to look at it with my friend first hand and to drive it before any purchas, we live somewhat close, anything to look for? hes not looking for some 10 grand e34, hes looking for a deal
So I would really look over the body, door pilars and suspension for any signs of major repair work.
"salvage" on the title usually means that at one point it was cheaper to "write the car off" as an insurance claim than repair it.
Good luck
and no real detailed discription.
Just looking at the cars interior shows it has been neglected...be afraid, be very afraid .. as for 10k ?? I disagree, Even Kelly Blue Book lists these cars @ $8500 (on the high end of the scale). I searched high and low for an e34, be it a 525 or 535 ... I finally found a 525 in New York for very short money... right before I was ready to leave (I had the plane ticket in my hand) I found a 1992 535i about 3 miles from my house.. the dealer was ready to deal and I had cash in my pocket.Money talks B.S. walks, very true words indeed. I got it for a very good price ...No odd noises, no issues , no problems so far other than a burnt out CMHSL, which cost me all of a 1.39 to replace at Pep Boys .The point is, good deals are out there , just be patient ....
