22 X3, 21 330e, 97 M3, 97 C36 (sold), but on the hunt for a clean, low-mile C43!
Eh...maybe if it had half the miles, then it might actually be attractive, but 146K is way too many miles for my taste. I remember this car a few months back when a used car dealer in San Diego was trying to sell it...looks like this guy finally ended up buying it, and now he's already selling it? Smells kinda fishy to me...

Indeed. It's definitely oddly cheap, but hopefully something someone in the know can fix relatively easily. The later trans didn't have the problems we had right? Because they updated the bearing by 2000? That' what I thought.

In the ONE exterior picture that he offers, the hood is either open or not right. And the front clip looks to be a different color. Silver can be difficult to see in pics, however.

Sadly, the price is likely about right. I just purchased a '98 C43 for $7k .... with 44k miles! I put a few hours and about $1500 into it and now it is perfect! Pics and intro to come.

In a heartbeat mate.

Or buy them both, and create the most awesome 202, with a dynocomp supercharged tiptronic C43k
