2011 CP E9Xs on CL

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds

Asking Price:

None

Item Interest

Came across this and on Craigslist for an E90 M3. Seems like a great deal for someone. Sadly, it's not the right color combo for me.

Ive actually been watching that car... but it's priced a little higher than I think I want to spend.

But what annoys me even more is the owner didnt seem to even wash/detail the car before taking the sale pics. Come on man.

SkysTheLimit · 01-02-2019, 11:44 AM

Low mileage E90 ZCP 6MT slicktop with red interior?

This car is a dream if all checks out. Great find OP, price isn't bad. There are only a handful of these around.

Kind of a weird ad though if the car is in Louisiana but posted in ATL.

EnVe46 · 01-02-2019, 11:52 AM

That car is priced competitively given slicktop, manual and lower miles. I'd be shocked if it doesn't sell for close to 35/36k, if it gets a detail. Annoys the hell out of me how some owners don't clean the car to present it for sale. Spend $300 for a solid detail!!!

RaX · 01-02-2019, 12:04 PM

Nice find. Get it before EAG buys it and jacks it up to $50k+.

e30runner · 01-02-2019, 01:50 PM

I’ve been keeping an eye out on this car as well. Only thing that threw me off is that it was in an accident a couple of months ago.

Yea, something feels off about the ad. Unfortunately, it's hard to vet many of these cars out there when they are multiple states away.

My feeling is that this car has been listed for a long time as I can recall seeing it months ago. Nice catch on the accident. How did you find that? Seller being communicative?

I think we can all agree that regardless of what the accident was this is no longer a $35k vehicle but rather there should be a $2 as the first number.

This is why the forum is the best. Fellow members looking out for others.

Impeccable ride, handling, and steering; powerful and quiet turbo sixes; fuel-efficient base mill; basically everything about the M3, especially its V-8."

uhh did anyone miss this part?? "powerful and quiet turbo sixes, full efficient"

lmao

Correct, the seller disclosed the accident and sent me the repair bill from ORR BMW...about $5K in repairs to the front suspension and wheel. If I remember correctly, I also read that it needed to have the power steering pump replaced.

That is what I was thinking on the price as well, but the seller is pretty firm on $35K.

I think any savvy buyer on M3post will expect the car to be discounted. Perhaps a buyer from Craigslist won't even know it had an accident since seller doesn't disclose it on his CL ad. Which says a lot about seller if you ask me.

$5k repair on an m3 is a lil bit of nothing...

Nice!! So True!

cvstar9M3 · 01-02-2019, 08:07 PM

nice car... too bad about the accident. That would have been a unicorn for sure...

EnVe46 · 01-03-2019, 06:02 AM

A $5k accident shouldn't harm it too much if it's been repaired by a reputable shop. If the damage was drivers suspension let's not forget how expensive all that is. $5k is quite easy to spend. That said, no longer a $35k car, probably 32-33k. Can't see it needing to be under $30k for a $5k accident. Labor rates for bmw repair shops start at $125/hr also

E90Hunter · 01-03-2019, 10:05 AM

I def agree with you that its worth 31-32k.

I wasn’t saying it was was a lot of damage, but just letting the group know what the repair bill was.

At the end of the day the car now has an accident on its record. It’s up to the buyer to determine the extent of the damage, how well it was repaired and what the car is worth to them.

AcroENG · 01-04-2019, 11:58 AM

This guy is also kind of a odd fellow, he wouldn't supply the VIN unless i called and spoke to him. " I only give info after I talk to you on the phone". I feel the steep price and the seller reluctance might be why the car has been poster for over 2.5 months. My 2 cents to our fellow members.

Svtour · 01-05-2019, 07:38 AM

I've come across another CP E9X. This time an E92. Appears better sorted than the initial car I found. White's not my thing, but perhaps this will help someone.
