I've decided to sell my C32
Well, it's been a fun two years with the C32, but I've decided to sell it on CL to pay off some credit card debt. I would appreciate it if some board members would look over my ad and critique it.
It has a couple issues that I consider to be minor: no seat heaters or cruise control, squealing pulley, 2 burnt out instrument cluster lights. I didn't list these in my ad but would tell any buyer who asked if there was anything wrong with it. I need to update a couple pics in the ad.

Thanks in advance.

I honestly don't know. I can pull up the lower console piece to check. Thanks for the reference point on your car. Last night I stumbled across the classified forum. I'll scan it to see how other C32s were advertised.
I guess my main questions are: 1) is the price right/too high/too low? 2) would you buy the car as is or would you expect one or more of the problems listed to be fixed?

No need to pull the car apart, I was just curious, and that is on my to do list. IMO, its tough to say if the price is fair. When I was looking, I viewed about 6 C32 until I purchased. Think of it this way- many may think the price is a bit high, but that's ok. You just need 1 person to think it is a good deal. Many people have not driven these cars and have no idea of their price/performance value. Bummer you have to sell, my C32 is my favorite car to date, used to be a Bimmer guy.

looks like your fogs are missing?
For comparison, I'm selling mine for 10500. 86K miles, really nice condition, and just had service work performed. I doubt you will get that much... maybe 8-9K is more realistic.

Thanks for the response. I had to remove the foglights to pass inspection because one had a serious crack. Grammabenz alerted me to a forum member who sells a set for $140. I've been debating whether to order them now or wait for a buyer to ask for them to be put back on.
Right now I'm trying to change the s/c bearing out (stupid thing won't budge even though I've removed the bolt, washer & snap ring). In the process I removed and dropped an idler pulley -- cracking its face, so now I've got to order that as well.

While I'm thinking about repairs, I have 2 LEDs burnt out in the cluster. Notice in the pic that the speedo & tach aren't lit up while the needles & fuel gauge are. A new cluster is ~$700. Does anyone know if this can be repaired for a lot less?
