    94 BMW 840ci - For sale, help plz? CA

    Got a 94 8 series. Haven’t driven her in over a year. One of the tail lights got cracked and there’s a small dent/scratch on the driver side panel/bumper ishh.

    Other than that the interior is in good condition used to drive just fine.

    I’m moving way out of state soon and Im considering shipping it with me and trying to fix it up but I’d much rather get rid of it.

    Have no idea where to price it either. Was thinking like 3-3.5k

    It has a little under 150k miles. Was pretty well maintained while I had it. Regular check ups always get stuff replaced when recommended but I’d think she should be able to get running pretty easily.

    Any suggestions on how I should go about selling it?

    Just posted on Craigslist gonna try Ebay but the car hasn’t been registered in a few years. I don’t have the space to part it out even though I’ve been told that would probably make me the most money. I remember I spent like 700 on just a door handle smh.

    Any advice or anything would be greatly appreciated. Or if anyone’s interested in buying her let me know.

    Hello,

    It all depends if it has any upgrades or bone stock? Upgrades: Diff, Chip, Suspension setup, wheels etc etc....

    You should get much higher than that for it. Do you have any pics of it? Post it on Cars for Sale on this forum and be as honest and as straight forward as you can.

    I hate to tell you this but Hyper on this forum has a fix for the door handle for under 150 bucks and a simple DIY.

    Yea that’s my link. Does 3250 sound fair.

    i just started it and it sounded just like it did when it was my daily. Almost wanted to take the ad down and just ship it with me to Chicago but that’s honestly not a good idea

    need to learn to be more frugal lol

    What kind of maintenance has been done? Engine service? Suspension? Do you have more details pics of car you can post?

    Mine (sadly) looked about the same when I bought it. I paid only a little more than your asking price...but I got four extra cylinders and three pedals in the deal. Similarly, though, mine needs significant bodywork and major interior renewal, and also has what I'm confident is the same door handle issue (thanks, Hyper!). I think your price is probably in line, but in any case I don't think it ought to head much higher. I'm not an expert like some of these other guys -- just basing this on what I see and what I've purchased. Assuming it's the same car, you're in the ballpark compared to last time. https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...los-angeles-ca

    Cheers, John
