looks like a great car for 80k. it is claimed that a lot of major mechanical work was done by our friend @sfdon.

i know that it lived in CA and PNW most of its life. in 2010 i show that it was owned by @Rum1973 in Tupelo, MS

There is a lot to like here, including where it was refurbished. I do like Chamonix on blue. Those BBS-RS are beautiful! They will eventually be found on my fjord coupe.

They should update the description, if you don't read Don's comment you'd conclude it is an M30 B34. A great price for what you're getting: rust repair, paint, LSD, engine, 5-speed, Air conditioner, BBS-RS and very important - who did the work.

Agree with everyone, a lot of coupe for 80K. Sunroof a huge bonus to me plus it comes with FIVE RSs. I don't completely understand the gap above the front headlight grill on the driver's side but it wouldn't be a deal killer - especially if everything else checked out - and at that price.

yes - it was at 80k

I inspected this car last Thursday for a potential buyer. I think the price drop came shortly after a phone conversation I had with the owner today.

Tough market right now. That's great that you did that Christopher. Hope he then makes an informed decision.

I think it will help the sale if more is shared about what was repaired on the front end: because this rust could be superficial, or it could be indicative of 20K+ bodywork with additional 5-10K paint job if the rust spreads into reinforcing plate of the strut mount the is 2 layers deep underneath there:

Now the add states that fenders have been replaced; any pics of how it looked down there when they were off? Any info on how many layers of the union were peeled?

 

[tdgray]

That's concerning that they replaced the fenders (well who know when) but did not address the rust around that area. In for a penny in the a pound as they say.
