Well, in my opinion, it is in "good" condition, as if our definitions are identical, anyway. After ten years of use or abuse, it's impossible to assess the value of a car without a) SEEING IT! or b) DRIVING IT!. There is such a wide potential value range after so many years of service. So, don't try to be a smartass.. Oohh..4dr versus coupe..there's a $50 swing! Like that's not a personal preference call anyway. Here's a few more questions you can add to your arsenal, ensuring a more accurate appraisal:

Windshield wipers: Bosch or 'Car and driver'?
Floormats?
Fuzzy Dice in mirror?
Windows: Light, dark, no tint?
Full/Empty tank of Washer Fluid?

You could care less about giving this guy a fair appraisal. Your post was just some scheme to make yourself look like some cool, bimmer.org expert/dork. Oh, or maybe you are intimately familiar with the current market value of the M-technic line? -Amused, Sal.

Sal,
As a matter of fact I am intimately familiar. I owned a 92 M-technic 325ic up until about a month ago at which point I traded it for a 850i. I currently own 4 BMW's and have owned as many as 8. So, armed with that information, perhaps you'd like to step back and re-think your position. Since you obviously are clairvoyant and could "sense" my intent just by reading my post, I won't go into great depth explaining to you that had there been more info provided, it would have been easier to assign a ballpark figure to the value of the car.

Hope you're still amused :)


Neal
