    E38 sporty shorty for sale

    I have 2 - 2000 e38 sporty shortys. I ‘sold’ 1 to my son when he graduated from college. Over the years - I maintained it for - just so he could drive it when he had time. But - it’s become a financial burden to maintain both e38’s and my ‘03 e53 4.6is. I’d like to sell it to someone who would like to keep it up and drive it - not part it out. If there’s anyone interested in it - dm me and I’ll provide pics and details. It’s been sitting for awhile in my garage and I just can’t see letting it deteriorate any further. It’s in remarkable condition - and drives like new. Just needs a few small repairs and a cut + buff.

    I think this qualifies as a For Sale post, as MayorChuck said, you need to provide an asking price, otherwise, this turns into a private/PM bidding contest and future readers of this thread won't be provided with any valuable info. Pics, Asking Price and Car Details are common courtesy for any for sale post on any forum.

    On the other hand, if you came on here and asked "what's my car worth?" and users started posting their ideas and you started entertaining offers as a result of it, that might be different, but either way, prices need to be posted in this thread.

    I would’ve put this on bring a trailer or craigslist or autotrader - but I’m not interested in getting it sold to someone who wants to part it out ... I’m interested in someone who wants to bring it back to driving condition - and I have no idea what it’s worth. I never intended to sell it - it was a gift to my son when he graduated from college - the car belongs to him -he asked me to see what I could get for it. He isn’t a car guy and has no interest in keeping it - now that he’s married. If I’ve violated some forum policies on trying to sell something here - you’ll have to excuse me. I’ve never attempted to sell any of my own cars - because I only buy cars I want to keep. I’m not a car dealer. If someone is interested in the car - they can contact me directly - and avoid any forum policies at luau_boy@yahoo.com - and I will happily answer any questions and entertain any offers. Thanks for your patience and the interest.

    So TCG were done 80k miles ago? So they’ll need to be done again within the next 20k miles, assuming the 100k life expectancy

    I'll offer you $100 dollars, sight unseen. If you have no idea what it's worth, it's only worth what someone gives you, and I'm giving you $100. Oh, you don't like that offer for it, then you must have a price on mind that you want for it. You see, you have a price for which you won't let it go for less. You know exactly what you want for it so come out and say it and stop all this building about it.
    Lets get the party started before it's my bedtime.
