I'd say this is a legitimate good buy.

Full disclosure -- I know the seller as an acquaintance, and he has always seem to me like he is a solid, stand up guy.

I dunno mang, regardless of his being a stand up or lying down guy, the issues, it's age and mileage make it a reasonable (but not really special buy).

Those qr25 motors are a nightmare. Make sure to do your homework before buying.

No idea about history, but weird coloured exterior (mirrors, wing, scoop), lowered, big brake kit, Cobb intake etc. That car wouldn't be that cheap unless it's had a really hard life, or somethings wrong

went to downshift to pass a car
sounds like he money shifted it. not really rolling the dice if you already know the engine is fucked. 15k USD plus cost of replacement engine and install. probably end up being the same cost as a running m3.

dunno how much these are worth now, this one is certainly expensive but s54 m coupe is a pretty sick car

Mazda 6 wagon, MANUAL, V6. Lowish mileage.

Jesus, that's a really good buy.

My brother has one (but in auto) it's a fantastic wagon, hauls a tonne. Roomy, comfy, great heated seats. Turning circle is pretty atrocious though

That E38 is a pal pof mines and that car is the definition of a great buy, super well maintained and all the work that has been done is of high quality.

Someone should definitely scoop that up, shave their head and cop an accent haha

Rule 1: Never change the deal.

I have such a soft spot for the E38's...

Bit of a cult following on these 'sleeper' wagons 300hp engine with AWD ... this one is pretty high mileage but the listed price is not bad (assuming you can talk him down some), and it's manual, making it a bit of a unicorn (and no worries about the auto trans which usually goes on these)!

04 Volvo V70R, AWD, 280K kms, 6 speed manual, $6995
