I'm looking for a new car and I found this one: http://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/4096018284.html
I told him I don't think it's worth $5500 because of the mileage and how the interior looks. So I was able to bring him down to $4800, but I just learned that he cut and heated the springs
and he hasn't even registered the car because he didn't have the money and he has another car that he drives, but he claims he has the title and all i need to do is bring it to the dmv with my name on the title.
He also says it doesn't pass smog because it needs a new cat and he says he has one that his friend passed smog with.
When I asked him if the engine had any leaks or anything and if it's been tested he said these exact words: "Yes. Everything was tested and the engine was cleaned insided and out of any gunk. It runs smoothly. These motors are half million mile motors. They're amazing!"
This is what his ad says:
I have a flush clean title 5-speed white 1991 E30 318 IS tastefully lowered on new BBS RS rep wheels with new tires, clean paint job, new clutch, new water pump, thermostat, new center support, new geibo, new fuel filter, new Bosch spark plugs, and breaks are in great condition...
This is one of the cleanest E30's you will come across on craigslist! I baby this thing to ensure best performance. Selling it because I just started college so I really need the money.
This car has no problems and runs like a champ. Oil was recently changed, car gets roughly 350 mi per tank of gas.
The interior is in good condition despite its year; it's equipped with the sports package interior.
For any questions or concerns, please call/text me at
PRICE: $5,500 (OBO)
cleanest E30 you will find on craigslist!
****The rims could be brought back to chrome if requested!****
What do you guys think this car is worth? I'm curious because I've seen all sorts of prices for cars in this type of condition. What would you pay?
