Re: 1st Time 735 buyer (archive)

SIX GEES IS TOO MUCH for that age with those miles on it. He should at least be considerate, though it is a BMW it is still a car. Like Eric said, you most definitely won't be able to sell it. You'll have to enjoy it till it essentially dies out. Otherwise, it is a great car plus you said it was well maintained by the dealer. Since it's nice outside I would negotiate it so he could accept something less that 6K. Buy it if you can, you shall enjoy it. But be aware that 6K is probably not fair to you. I bought mine for 6K and it has 135K on it and is an '89 750iL. Bottom line, it's price is too high-Really.

'89 750iL

Help!
I am considering buying a "88 735i. It is silver w/ black interior. Exterior is literally perfect but the interior is worn but is readily fixable. This car has very high mileage ie. 295K. Local BMW shop has serviced this car since new and removed the head last summer and reworked it. They say it is in pristine condition. Private owner is selling...he wants 6K. Any ideas , opinions etc.
I currently own a '87 635 L6. I'm a believer but I want some advice from 735 owners. TIA
