Z4MC FS, Rons car?

Diesel_d66 · 02-20-2018, 10:06 AM

I know there's a marketplace section, but I thought posting this here would get more traction, especially since I think this is a former board members (Ron Stygar?) car.

This is not my car nor my listing, just sharing... I'm actually looking to buy an MR.

Yes that's definitely Ron's old car.
I believe this the 2nd time coming up FS.

...seems like its priced low for the condition and mileage

+1 If there are no stories, the seller donesn't know what (s)he has...

Knowing how loved this car must have been, its just sad to see what was once a very treasured item up for sale like this. I guess there was no friend or family member who wanted this gem. I hope that whoever buys this car will appreciate it.

This car is free at that price!

GuidoK · 02-20-2018, 02:35 PM

I'm still amaized at how low z4m prices are in the US (both roadster and coupe).
For instance, a car like this costs about $47k in (LHD) europe.
The cheapest sub 50k km/30k miles z4m coupe costs atm (in germany, it has the largest sale section) $47k and is lesser equipped than this one.

Is anybody local that can check this car out? If it was a non-nav car I would be enticed to add it to the stable...

RossBMWZseries · 02-21-2018, 10:56 AM

Car looks good and priced cheap. I understand Ron was a DIY'er, is that switch by the sunglasses holder on roof OEM or aftermarket? If OEM, what does it do?

garz747 · 02-21-2018, 11:35 AM

Jeez- that car is a great deal! Low mileage and fanatic owner. So what if it has NAV.

garz747 · 02-21-2018, 11:47 AM

BTW the switch by the sunglass holder was installed as a garage door opener.

I remember one of the things he did was convert side the mirrors to power folding.
There were many such projects done to this car.

wdb · 02-24-2018, 09:38 AM

Someone snap that up! I think it went for $47K the first time.

Seems to be a scam ad, according to commenter on the Z4 M Coupe Buyer's Guide listing.

E90PAT · 02-25-2018, 08:07 PM

Who is ron? Anyone have a link?

Hmm, not surprised. Buyer beware. if this is real, no stories, it would be quite the steal.

When I was looking for an E46 for my son, I found one for $1500. The woman claimed to be in the military and was in special training, but could arrange for the car to be delivered. I suspected it was a scam and searched the email, and sure enough, it came up on scam notices. I played along to see how it would work. They said they worked with eBay/Paypal and eBay would act like an escrow service. They then asked me to buy three $500 eBay gift cards, and that I might have to go to three different stores, since some allow a max of $500 per day for gift cards.

I asked them to contact me and gave them the address and phone number to the local sheriff's department.
