I want to say this is a fake ad because I've driven past a very similar-looking car and house in Crofton hundreds of times over the years and, looking on Google Maps, there's no house that looks like that on the road listed in the ad (in Prince Rupert).

Mazda 6 wagon, MANUAL, V6. Lowish mileage.

Jesus, that's a really good buy.
The V6 engines in these cars are not the most reliable engines out there. So if anyone is considering the car, take that into account and budget for it accordingly.

2011 BMW 335i manual with xDrive. ~120,000km on it.

$20K seems really low especially for a car at a dealer.

Edit: Looks like its sold already - not on the dealer site anymore.

Completely different motor and drivetrain, so I doubt the issue is there. My brothers shows no signs at all, but with an auto there is a bit of a disconnect between driver and car. Wouldn't be as obvious as if it was manual

BMW 330i ZHP - pretty rare. Not sure if the price is good or not but it seems fair-ish?

2004 BMW ZHP (many fakes on CL)
i spent over a year looking at e46 sedans before i got mine and i dont think i ever saw a fake ZHP. that said its kind of a pet peeve of mine when people call canadian ZAM cars ZHP, theyre the same thing but if he wants to call out fake ZHPs maybe he should start at his own ad

Not sure where you have ever seen a non-rebuilt e36 m3 for 7k CND.
Also, where do you get the idea that its USD?

Since we're posting GN's: https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/5939248447.html

A solid buy considering the current exchange rate and it's mileage, condition and it being mostly stock. Wish I had the funds at the moment. I've loved these cars since they were new.

i think asma123 is talking about the e92 w popped motor.

the e36 looks like a really solid buy. you could easily sell the style 5's and use the proceeds for a less stancy setup.

if the ads real, it's certainly CL good buy worthy

vitg - i had the same post typed up.

calls out fake ZHP's - posts fake ZHP (ZAM)

Inspections are a hassle, but easy if you know the right people. And with this being a car forum, the right people aren't far away.

I had one of these back in the day and loved it to pieces

Shame I don't have any pics, it was a great "touring car" of sorts, felt great on the HWY @ ludicrous speeds.

I picked one up off a friend last winter as a bit of a project car because my best friend had one for years when we were younger and always loved driving it and it brought back memories... Still so smooth riding even with age, but the engine is pretty down on power by today's standards. Felt a lot faster back then lol...
