Not even an offer, really?

Could it quite possibly have anything to do with the fact that you don't have a price listed in your ad?

Ya I thought about that. Funny thing is if I listed a top price equivalent of the sum of the parts; plus the car, I would end up with an unrealistic low ball offer.

I figured let's just start at the bottom.

I guess I should change the language to "make an offer"

Oh well can't figure out what motivates people these days ;-(

But what do I know

Honestly. A non-running 320i (late registration doesn't help) isnt really going to be worth much. Especially if the interior is worn down. It would have to go to the right owner. But being the additional work and parts (even if minor) that the car would need. Most people would opt for the 2002.

Even with the spares, I couldn't see someone paying more than $500-1000.

Not to mention they will also have to pay for it to be towed as AAA won't tow a non-currently registered car.

Hope it sells. I've been there before.

All very true input:

I guess I figured most see the value in this offer based on the parts:

If I were to break it down:

Axle shafts for LSD conversion $50

Getrag 245 5-Speed $300

3-spoke sport wheel (good leather) $75

Radiator $40

Larger front hubs (tii big brake stuff) $100

Recaros (need upholstery) but has 2002 adaptable sliders $150

Big Rear brake drums & backing plates $65

VDO volt & oil gauges $40

M10 Stahl Header $75

BBS 13X5.5J with 205x60 tires plenty of tread $200

E21 Zender rear spoiler $100

E21 Zender rocker skirts $100

E21 IS front spoiler $100

Driver & passenger flag mirrors $100

Getrag 4-speed 6-pack of beer

E21 2.0 riser plate & fuel dist $50

E21 Good set of lower control arms $50

E21 larger tool kit $20

Haul the carcass to Pick N Pull with motor, glass, and body panels $150

By my simple estimate this is a $1,765.00 deal. Shoot it's worth more if you go deep into parting it out.

Fuel system stuff, nice body panels, glass, engine stuff, suspension etc...

Think big!
