I think the V12 drivetrains on the Mercs are pretty rock solid from my reading... it’s the damn suspension and electrics that fuck with you

so.......how much? I'd say it's not against the spirit of the thread if it's a good buy.

I think that’s a CX... there’s no tach in it. He calls it a “beautiful restoration” but then paints right over the front license bolts. I’d be wary of the shop painting over top of the rust and bondo on those rear arches

2015 VW Golf TDI wagon, rare, could tick off a lot of boxes for some. DSG, 83K kms, pretty loaded with NAV, HID, $19.5K, 150 hp engine with 236 lbs/ft torque. A bit on the high side so it depends on your negotiating skills to make this a good deal. Pop a tune in there and you could get to 175 hp range.

Nice colour combo. Well worth a look and manual conversions are pretty reasonable these days, not that the smg is bad.

An E39 M5 for just under $30k. I've seen cheaper cars, but this seems very clean and reasonable given the mileage. Has KW coilovers too

2000 BMW M5 - $29,500 (Aldergrove)



Selling my 2000 BMW E39 M5. I imported this car from Japan about three years ago (May 2017). I bought it because it was a car I had wanted to try for a long time and I wasn’t able to find something I liked locally. I love the car, but with two kids and not enough time it’s time for me to put it up for sale.

I have the auction sheet from Japan from when I imported the car (see included photo), and the car came with books and service records from Japan as well as three keys. The car currently has about 108,000 kms on it. It’s my current daily driver so that will continue to increase.

Extras:

KW V3 coilovers
Eibach front and rear sway bars
Wiechers front strut brace
5mm spacer for front wheels
Front lip

Cons:

Some minor blemishes on the wheels
Someone etched “M” on the left side skirt near the rear wheel (it’s very fine and could probably be polished out with good equipment)
CD player isn’t working
GPS doesn’t work because it’s a Japanese system
When the headlights are on it gives an error that highbeams and fog lights aren’t working; however, they work just fine.
Moisture gets in the left headlight assembly
Rear view mirror has the common fluid issue
Crack in front lip


I have a number of spare parts for the car and I’ve been picking away at small preventative maintenance items as I have time, but as I mentioned at the start, I just don’t have time to do the work on it I want to so, I have fluids for the rear differential and transmission, fuel filter, front end suspension kit, thermostat, valve cover gaskets and probably a few other things. I got the valve cover gaskets because I thought they were leaking, but it turned out it was just the oil fill cap which I have replaced (this is common and some people have changed to the M3 oil fill cap). I also have the stock shocks and springs, a spare under tray and speakers.

Asking $29,500. Please e-mail if you are interested and I can reply with a phone number or you can include your phone number in your e-mail.

I’d take it over that Milano Red EG for $6.5k. There’s more personality in this one and it’s in a more original shape. Still has the OG dealer plate frame and sticker, pinstripes, no corrosion on the wheels and a minty engine bay. Put on some period-correct SSR or Enkei and call it a day (also because there’s limited aftermarket support )

P.S. that garage/workshop is so tidy

shoulda put dealer plate frame back on
that's like +$300 to the value for the original owner appeal!!

on a serious note, yeah this prelude is way better buy than that red eg
if only it had the gold cr-x seats too i'd pay asking in a heartbeat
