Maintenance is a million dollar question (almost literally)
If I’m getting a binder full of maintenance for that 20k car I’d buy it tomorrow. If it’s looking rough and has been poorly maintained I wouldn’t take it for 12 because I’d double it in a week of ownership. They have the running costs of a 100k car, that’s for sure.

I’d be happier with a $1000 beater with a working heater than a V10 M5 with questionable history. At least I know I don’t need a house down payment to keep it running.

57,xxx kms for only 32,888 with a clean title. Seems like a pretty good deal since some e46s go for 30,000

Z3guy 01-11-2018 07:18 AM

^ that is great deal with all the nice stuff included like LCI rear lights, OEM Comp wheels, plus the car looks mint.

most likely anyone who buys MPSS tires most likely won't skimp on maintenance.

Z3guy 01-11-2018 07:23 AM

anyone considering buying a high mileage, potentially sketchy E60 M5 would be better off saving $5K to $10K more and buy a mint one. I have owned an E60 M5 with really low kms (bought at 10K kms and sold at 55K kms) and $5K to $10K bills are not uncommon. Plus be ready for the shitty gas mileage ever! I was getting 220kms on a 60L fill.

Edit - wrong thread.
Agree with Tofu though

Fake ad (and a pretty poorly done one at that). Matched the first few Google images that were found.

snowfarmer 01-13-2018 06:18 AM

hmm. I tried google image search and didn't match it to another image on Google. What other ad/page did you trace it back to? Did you do anything other than just right click it to search it? I need to sharpen my google skills

The image shows a BC plate with a 3 number/3 letter plate which would be the right sequence for a car plated back when the seller says they bought it?

I wish... I spent months trying to find a Miata last year. Actually, despite buying a car, I never stopped looking :lawl:

Anyhoo, the post has been taken down, but I found the same images fromt his page:

http://www.cardomain.com/ride/209483...photo-gallery/

Did not see a BC license plate or anything, just a front 3/4 perspective view.

Suprarz666 01-13-2018 05:30 PM

^ i saw the post yesteday as well.
he changed his photos afterwards to a car with local plates.

Matsuda 01-13-2018 10:13 PM

White 2013 FRS for <$15k
- clean title
- manual
- 22,000 km

GabAlmighty 01-14-2018 04:02 PM

Dealer and cheap? With a clean title? I bet it's got a big hit on it.

TopsyCrett 01-14-2018 06:01 PM

For anyone who is willing to put up with this generation of BMW's, this looks like a good example. However, I am not sure on the 735i V8 model... I thought these were only available with a 4.0L.
