WTB 318ti for under $3000
 

the car doesnt have to be perfect in any way. i am looking for a decent driver runner. thank you.

good luck with that, for $3000 it will be a high mileage pice of crap needing about $2000 worth of work easily just to get it to run right.

but heres one i saw on craigslist you might be interested in, its not mine, nor do i know the person selling it.

plenty of members here got their ti's for under $3k, it's a 10-15 year old, 4 cyl. hatchback, they aren't worth that much

FYI, mine was $1800 with 124k, all I've had to replace were rear brakes, an alternator, one taillight bulb and I need to do a thermostat and trunk lock cylinder come summertime, that comes out to a little less than $2k :wink:

KBB Private Party Values (For what KBB is worth on a somewhat niche car)

1995 Excellent condition normal options 150K = $2390
1999 Excellent condition normal options 150K = $3165

Assumed a 150K miles for apples to apples comparison.

Knowing the market locally KBB is about 500 under what I see them pricing out at locally... So if you have cash are patient and maybe willing to go a ways to get it seems reasonable to me...

Road trip!

heres one for 1500 if you dont mind a little work: http://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/cto/1595072969.html

I'd take 1700 for mine, but I'm in Atlanta GA.

175k miles
Cold air
Good heat
Paint is black, but has numerous flaws and the horizontal surfaces are full of crows feet.
No rust
interior is OK
Needs front speakers
Gets 25mpg everywhere (auto)
17" newer BMW wheels
DDM headlights w/HIDs

Nothing in need of immediate attention.

I bought an E30 and will be swapping the M50 meant for my Ti. No rush to sell, PM me if you are interested.
