Colour matched landau? :heckno:

Rebuilt may refer to condition and not icbc status. I hope the new owner loses the pedal covers and shift knob.

Went to check out this J30t this evening. Very cool seller and VERY cool ride. The engine bay was so clean you could eat off of it! Same goes for the interior floor mats!

Whole car was in fantastic shape. I would have bought it on the spot, but I still have a BMW I dont' drive and school starting in the fall :okay:

After speaking with the owner, I think he's actually considering accepting lower offers. He's asking $3200 but if you gave him three, I'm pretty sure he'd take it!

For anyone who wants an ultra cool sleeper that's got a 300ZX engine under the hood THIS is you car!

2000 BMW M5 - Good Condition! Rare Colour Combo! 400HP

Someday...I'll have that Lancia...So damn cool. :ahwow:

Can you guys just take the 1 second it takes to post what car it is as opposed to just a CL link?

Agreed. In their defense, for some reason, copy/pasta cl links used to automatically add the title but has since changed.

what wonder kind of damage in US the m5 got...small fender bender?

paging gs8, cheap impala ss

Impala ss

So you went to completely waste the guys time on purpose is what you're saying :rukidding:

I actually went to go see this car before i purchased my CLS.
It is a US import from florida, and has an accident claim earlier on in its life (according to the owner). He is unsure of the amount of the claim, but it is a "clean title". It comes with a decent amount of maintenance records from various shops as well. The condition of the vehicle is relatively good. Exterior i would say is 8.5-9/10. Interior i would rate 7/10 due to the cracks in the leather.

Some things i noticed that didnt work was the NAV, power folding mirror on passenger side, and sunroof sometimes didn't close all the way (it would close halfway, then open again, like something was caught).

Other than that, the car sounded fine mechanically. The muffler delete makes the car sound amazing.
I would definitely get the car inspected to see if there are any huge maintenance items that need to be addressed soon.

Hope this helps any RS members interested in the car!

and probably take it for a joyride? EleGiggle :troll:

Did these go up in value? They are very cool cars and probably the only BMW I'd ever want to own. I checked a few years ago and they were in the $15k-$18k mark

Trust me, I drove 1.5 hours each way to see this car. I had MUCH more time to lose than the seller.

I really wanted to make this work, but it would be stupid given what I currently have on my plate. I feel terrible about passing it up given the condition. I posted the ad here since the seller is the kind of guy I'd love to do business with. Since I cannot, I wanted to help him out by posting it here.

Failstorm me all you want, I just wanted to pass on a deal to someone who'd appreciate it.

I don't think he's commenting on why you posted the ad. He's asking why you went to see the car if you had no intention of buying? It sounds like you had already made up your mind that it didn't make sense for you to buy this car.

After I saw it I made up my mind. Before that i wanted to buy the J30 and sell my current dd.

I don't understand how this concept cannot be comprehended.

04 sti with new motor
2004 Subaru WRX STI

"Due to mistake by oil change company" ... serviced by jiffy lube? :(

and to the subie people here... back when i had my 02 wrx i was specifically told not to use a hood deflector like this one does because it deflects too much air away from the intercooler scoop... does that still apply with this? of course this has a different nose than mine had and this scoop is much bigger...

^Dude type something other than posting the link

seen this car around town as i am from ridge, looks pretty clean.
assuming he went to the jiffy lube in ridge i could understand that they might have screwed something up as the chain stores dont even require mechanical experience they just train you how to do stuff instead; probably some dumb kid put something where it didnt belong.

wow... so much want, but i'm not that brave :o

It was a good price and it looks like the car has been sold. Maybe someone on RS bought it.

However, isn't the VG30DE motor a bitch to work on? Maybe not BMW level but I remember avoiding the 300zx because of what I heard about the motor.

It's a very tight engine bay in the 300, not sure what it's like in the infiniti. Doing anything substantial requires removing a lot of shit, a real pita

At that price, I'm betting Optispark is on its way out. Or it's leaking at the manifold.

If I had room, I'd buy it and do an LS swap. LT1s need to be removed and converted to these
