Any thoughts/opinions would be greatly appreciated!---3/29--I decided NOT to pursue purchase of vehicle--car is located in Cleveland and I live in Cambridge, MA--just too far without first checking it out..

Thanks for your feedback, David

Looks good to me but if he is a BMW tech, then the temp gauge should be fixed by him for nothing.

Being a BMW tech doesnt always mean that you have-and/or desire to make the time to fix something like a temp guage. just sayin.

looks like a nice car though

Too much money. Say 2500 if paint and interior are decent.

sounds like a really fair deal. i paid that for mine and it was beat.

Thanks to all who replied to my post regarding the purchase of a 1993 325iC.

I decided NOT to purchase the car. I live in Cambridge, MA and would need to see it before considering to purchase it.
