13 year old German car. High miles. Great chassis ... I dunno. I’d offer $3,500 and have it inspected first. There could be a lot of hidden problems. Also, has it been in CA all its life?

Raleigh, NC. It’s about 3,000 miles away. And yes I am because manual. My mother would much prefer a 525i, but nothing is more ‘Murican than a V8

We bought a 10 year old Audi from a buy here-pay here dealer and it’s only had a ton of issues!

Photos lie, especially from a distance. You have to be there.

The car will cost literally twice as much in maintenance within the first year. These things are a nightmare with high miles.

well... as everyone seems to be saying... be prepared to spend at least that purchase price in the first year or so on maintenance and repairs. and what you dont spend, invest in some good tools, jacks, jackstands, shop manuals...
i’m actually thinking about an e38 myself. have two manuals already, so i’m ok with an auto and a back seat. :)

I should just stick with the Subaru Outback or the W123 300D I’m also looking at...
