This guy is a little off on his price, I think, but this looks like a pretty nice car

Looks nice. Wasn't there somebody looking for 1 in Washington?

There's someone in the Portland area, Lublisha I think. I can't remember if there was someone up in Washington or not.

This car is a good candidate for Khoalty GB. Other than that, looks very good.

I'm in contact with the owner. Definitely wouldn't pay the asking price though. Two owner and service records. What would seem fair?

Seems fair, you can work your way down from there. If you get a PPI, use any glaring maintenance that needs to be done as a bargaining chip.

If it's a clean car, 9500 is very reasonable. I read somewhere on E46 fanatics that you should plan to spend close to 10k to get a decent e46, whether you pay for that up-front or in maintenance costs later on.

What would you say a car like this one ^ would go for ideally? As long as there aren't any hidden problems?

2 years ago it would have been around $11k for something like this if it had a decent maintenance history and was not abused.

Your best option here is to get a PPI on the car and go from there. Discuss the price based on that and what the car will need. Factor in the cost of parts and labor if not doing it yourself.

IMO $8k would be nice.
