I have been thinking about replacing my Accord with a good condition older BMW. I have an 89 325is that is more of a weekend car/garage queen because of the condition its been kept in, but I have fallen in love with the ride and quality of just about any BMW i have been in. I am looking along the lines of an e34, or late e30/early e36. The car doesnt have to be perfect, but since I need a daily driver, reliability is very important. My price range is well under $10k, and $5k would be great. My e-mail is tj12svt@aol.com If you e-mail me, please make sure the title is clear so I can pick it out of the junk mail. Thanks in advance

Nice lookin car. I would have to say that your car is probably a little more than I need though. That seems to be a good deal for the car, but with it being on the high end of my budget, and the distance involved, I'm gonna see if I can find something a little easier on the wallet. I saw that $100 finders fee though, so I'll letcha know if I can find a buyer for you.

SecretAzn...
That looks pretty sweet for 5800. Got any more pics handy? Hows the interior?

White M32...
Awesome car, but not really what I'm looking for in a daily driver.

Saad...
Sorry to leave you hangin, I'm just seeing whats out there before we go road tripping for me to check out the car. Still have it in mind though.

After giving it a little more thought, I would be much more comfortable in the "under 6k" category than anything else. I dont want to have to add much money to the sale of my accord for this to happen.

Thanks again for the replies guys, and if anyone else has somethng, I'm still in the market.

Tim,

You can get the E34 I showed you....

1k paint job and some nice wheels/suspension = your total budget!

Add supercharger, big brakes and more speakers and have a bitchin' 5 series for around 10k!

Hows that for a Daily Driver?

Let me know,

Eli, I still have that on the list, I just like to check around before buying so I dont kick myself for passing something up afterwords. I looked at at least 5 e30's in person before buying the one I have, and I'm very happy with it.
