Looking to buy an 01 sport silver on black

[Sarvinder]

As the title states, it's only been a few weeks since I have sold mine. And I'm back at looking for another one.
Need a Silver over black with cold weather pkg, sport pkg and sun shade pkg.
Lower the miles the better.

Fire away!!!

Second one down is an M sport package for $5900, 137k. Anyway, I like using this site for fun.

Hmm thats an iL, but thanks for the link Chuck! I found an 01 sporty shorty with cold weather pkg with 60k on it going for 15,750.00 is worth while?

That's pretty high money, but I say if its worth it to you, then it's money well spent. Still cheaper than a Civic.

But, in my experience, the Jersey late-model high-end used car places are often shady. In the couple of times of gone to see a car listed at a Jersey lot on ebay or online, it was in pretty bad shape. Despite seeming mint in the pictures. Close pictures in particular make me think something is shady. Not sure what your plan was, but I wouldn't be comfortable pursuing this unless I could see the car in person and it was exactly the condition I wanted, no promises of the dealer fixing things or ordering parts after I buy it.

And from a guy who bought a low-mileage E38 (like 62k), not sure it got me anything. Just meant I had to do all of the stuff that these cars typically need - at least $7k worth of work. Hindsight, I'd go for higher mileage with a service history covering all the usual bases for these cars.

That's a good point - low mileage just means you have to do all the 80-100k work.

The car is a bare bones sport - no folding mirrors or rear shades. Doubt it has auto tint rear view mirrors either. Surprised it has sport wheel tho with small nav screen - that means it is an earlier production date and the wheel was prolly added as an option.

Pics look good - go see in person but not worth over $12K at most.

You do have a point.
