    2001 540i, 6 speed manual, $6000

    I had a nice post with all of the cars issues and strong points, but I get annoyed easily by stupid sites that "for security purposes" log you out and you lose half an hour of nicely written post. So here are the pictures, here is what is done to the car. Car has rust that needs repairing. I have extra doors and trunk lids to give.
    Please refrain from commenting on price and condition of car. Call, me, text me or PM me if you are actually interested in the car. Asking price $6000. Car is located in the west suburbs of Chicago.
