Should I part out my 525's or Sell them.

[saconnect]

I have a alpine white 95 525i 129k mi that needs A/C and Cruise Control, and an orient blau 94 525i 199k mi which is a little rusty and needs a heater core that I need to sell. I've been trying to sell locally for 3,999 and 2,999 respectively, and have had no luck over the past two months including newspaper ads. I don't want the hassle of ebay them as a whole car, Should I lower the price significantly or should I sell the parts and take the rest to the junk yard? Thanks for your opinions.

Putting the cars on ebay is a lot less hassle than parting a car. Take some good digital pics and make no reserve auctions for 3000 and 2000. They'll sell no problem, maybe before the auction ends.

Unless you are willing to live with inoperable hulks in your driveway for a long time don't part 'em out. You are likely to sell just enough of them to render the balance truely worthless and an eyesore.
They will sell if you make them cheap. Consider how much money you where thinking you could make selling parts, price them that way and save the hassle.

I say part them out. I'll take the sideskirts off the 95 525 .

I'm with him, partly because I want the hood and grill off the 95 525 because I desire the wide looks. But you may end up with more money parting the whole car out versus selling it as a whole.

If you have a craigslist in your area, try that first. If you're parting... I could use the 95's front driver's side fender and one of the wheels XD

$4000 for a 95 525i that is in good condition but needs AC and CC looks like a deal. I would try advertising it better. A good ad, pictures and clean car can generate a lot of interest. Most buyers look at how nice the car looks rather then the mechanics.
