At first I interpreted that a 9,999km and was highly confused as to how a car got so banged up in so few km.

Yeh that's my bad. I fixed it now.

I'm curious to see how much I can lowball this thing too. Might be fun to see what's possible on that platform. I'm sure it's not too too bad considering they run gt500 on it. Add a wide body kit / giant wing, wield together that top and bore out the engine, and it should be pretty interesting.

They're great cars when you're cruising about, but lay into it even just a bit, and not even a triple dose of Viagra can save the platform. It's boaty, has vague steering at speed, and the transmission is not cooperative for spirited driving.

Maybe with a teenager's mouth worth of bracing, well-tuned suspension, and a bit of boost can it can be redeemed, but in its stock form it's a completely hopeless car outside of being a very nice convertible.

2002 BMW M3 Convertible - $16000

6 speed manual transmission

If this is the same car i'm thinking about, the subframe should be reinforced by CG motorsports

Good price,

6- 7k would be a nice price. i wouldn't pay 10K for a 230k car, even though it's quite bulletproof as long as timing belt is done.

I got my LS for 5k. 160k km.

I seem to recall someone looking for an Electron Blue EM1?

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/cto/6272957192.html

https://images.craigslist.org/00N0N_...m_1200x900.jpg

Personally, I think it's a touch too pricey. I also question the "tastefully modified" bit because I think the windshield sticker is tacky, the (plastidip?) white wheels doesn't go well with Electron Blue, and the steering wheel cover is not my cup of tea. But the rest of the car looks decent (on paper).

!Kodamu 08-20-2017 11:20 PM

It's missing the front lip for the em1. So I kinda question the front end

I was about to buy one in 2011 for ~$20K...but someone else bought it first.

TouringTeg 08-21-2017 06:52 AM

5spd w58 has it's limits but it is a good price.

TT6 prices have gone crazy the past few years. RHD TT6 is about $35k LHD usually $45- 60 or more. Prices are climbing fast. The white LHD TT6 posted here a while ago went fast because it was an outlier.

Clean NA prices have been climbing as well. Especially hard tops.

Hagerty choose it as a top 10 car to go up in value.

Here is one that sold on Bat for $58000 USD

I've got the outback version of this (but Auto for the wife) and I'd say it's a great family car. Also, the 4wd is tonnes of fun in the snow.

whitev70r 08-21-2017 01:05 PM

Here's another Legacy GT wagon, one year older, 2005, less kms at 133K kms, $12K

https://abbotsford.craigslist.ca/cto...266215742.html

https://images.craigslist.org/00u0u_...Wd_600x450.jpg

Or the same engine in the Forester Body. Heard that these are very practical, good in snow, fun to drive. Only thing I find about older Subies is that they are very plain inside.

05 Forester XT, 209K kms, $7K

55k CAD? Are we really there yet? this has been for sale for 6 months at least.

EDIT: for sale since october http://www.mcoupebuyersguide.com/listing?ListingID=7240

i LOVE these cars - but I would spend my 50k+ elsewhere.

https://vancouver.craigslist.ca/rds/...233184657.html

for 30ish you could have this Z4MC - I drove it a couple of months ago. It is absolutely cherry. A better car in every single way except collectibility.

westopher 08-21-2017 07:59 PM

USD? That gets you quite a bit nicer than average. But I'm with you on that. I just sat in producers z3 coupe. Man that is a VERY cool cockpit. The car feels about 1/2 the size of my e36, and my e36 feels about 1/2 the size of a 991.

Z3guy 08-21-2017 08:02 PM

^ Producer, I was looking at that Z4M, how is the overall condition of the car? seems like a great deal!

overall condition is excellent. Seller was an absolute gem. I spent close to an hour in and out of the car. Test drove it all over the place. Seller is OCD in all the best ways. Without a doubt the best condition used car I've ever been around. Also another buddy had the car in his shop earlier that week and said it's as clean underneath as it is up top.

Sadly I just couldn't stroke the big cheque knowing I'd have to give up my E36 to justify it.

I've got no affiliation other than really appreciating the type of owner the seller is.

joquio 08-21-2017 10:33 PM

That is nice really nice Z4MC and very reasonable price too!
I wish it was for sale when I was looking 6 months ago :(

Kind of OT but I'm dying to know if The Producer's Z3 was at the meet

TouringTeg 08-22-2017 06:08 AM

Wow that Z4M for $32k seems like a lot of car for the money
