I don't currently have enough info on each car to post in classifieds but will do so asap. Therefore please do not post replies or PM me with specific questions since I probably do not have the answers yet.
The first is a white sedan, manual, 130k miles. I do not know this car personally but the guy knows that he's talking about in the realm of E46 and seems to have maintained it well. We got in touch via an ad I have on craigslist for an E46 part and he mentioned his is a ZHP, so of course I asked about it. Sounds like it's not a bag of problems at all (I inquired about that also). Says he has his eye on a 135i as a replacement. $7k without the after market wheels. Presumably that means he still has the OE wheels but I will have to find out.
The 2nd is also a sedan, manual, Mystic Blue on black, 80k miles. Price not yet established. Well maintained, owned by a friend. I know this car well. Needs some minor paint work (scratches, etc). He might do that on his dime or sell as-is. I mention it in case someone out there has a preferred paint & body guy like I do. Just had entire cooling system replaced, minus the lower hose but including the water/heater valve, which was leaking. I know because I did the work. BMW blue coolant, properly bled. That same day we did the DISA repair kit from German Auto Solutions as a preventive measure. In shop today for new ctrl arm bushings (Lemforder) and valve cover gasket, including all the little bolt gaskets and a new oil filler gasket under the valve cover. It is due for trans, diff, and brake flushes and you'd probably want to do the VANOS rebuild. 2nd master key does not work, will be sending it in for repair with some of my keys. Selling because his kids are getting older and he wants a larger vehicle.
