Anyone think this is a good deal?

I found this 1997 m3 4d for $10,000, but can easily make the guy take less. It has only 32,000 miles. The only real drawback is it has a salvage title because the interior was stolen. The original interior was the AWSOME carmel color, I believe it was called Modena? Well, that was stolen and the interior was replaced with white seats. The guy never swapped out the carpet though, so this is still tan. If we did get it, maybe the seats sould be dyed back to the original color since they are white. I would rather do this than put a new carpet in just because having tan interior would be really cool. All of this seems worth while just beause of the low milage. If it had high miles, I wouldnt even consider anything. Has new paint also.
Little mexican kids!




You can see how the interior colors really clash.


Here you can see where his dumbass wife backed into a car. The guy is getting this fixed. The frontend is also getting resprayed as it hasa some paintchips.

seems like a good deal to me with that low of miles!

[mtechnik]

if you can i would say go for it.. i mean it is a 4-door M!

$10k with the damage (except the interior) fixed? Are you sure that the interior is the only problem with the car?

If thats the case, jump on that shit. Sounds like a steal to me.

That seems low...even with the damage. But if that is really all thats wrong with it, jump on it.

The carfax said was it was reported stolen, and the damages were repaired. The guy said the entire interior was tolen out of it. I looks like all thats wrong with it it the mismatch interior, and the light accident in the rear, which is getting fixed anyway.

go for it if you don't let me know i will buy it

Yea for that price its a bargain, how come I dont have the luck to find something like that for that price

Would that give a car a salvage title? I got to be honest, this dosent sound right at all, even if that was what really happend 10 grand for that low miles dosent add up. Im not saying dont buy it, but just really look into it.

[Andrew]

Iv heard from numerous people that when a car is reported stolen, it gets a salvage title, no matter what, simply becuase anything on the car could be tampered with. The carfax report says the car was issued a repair title, to get the damages (interior) fixed. I personally have not found out if stolen cars get salvage titles automatically. If someone could confirm this it would be a help.

You don't want a salvage titled anything. You'll end up kicking yourself in the long run.

i would say its a pretty good deal. what you save on the initial price you can just get new seats and get the body work done. i would do it.....

[deafboy]

If you plan on keeping it forever go for it.... but if you plan on selling it down the road I wouldnt advise buying it....

[aANALOG101]

get it before its to late man

long story short, take it to a respected shop, pay someone 100 bucks to really check it out.

here in the dc metro area, in virginia is a place called currys, i almost bought an m3 that looked perfect, had it checked out, paid about 100 or so dollars, and was told of the 5k repairs i would have to make in the next year or so. its really worth it on any used car you are to buy.

so just do that, and then make the choice.
