Not sure what the market is for the Roadsters, I recently purchased a coupe. It looks like a nice ride to me, and I do like the color combo..
Good luck.. hope you find what you're looking for! |

There are deals to be had on this website and the BMWCCA classifieds section, some of which are more appealing in my opinion.
Hard to tell what kind of past a car had once it enters a used dealership lot. Pre-purchase inspection necessary certainly and a thorough once-over. |

Nice roadster. I picked up a black sapphire / imola combo this summer.
27k on the clock for just under $24k. I think I got a good deal but that's irrelevant, she is a joy to drive and look forward to every weekend drive. GL |

Price is pretty good if it doesn't have issues, but at 75K, if it hasn't already been done, you may be looking at valve adjustment, vanos rebuild/refurb swap, rod bearings, total fluid replacement, bushings, suspension, guibo, etc. All of that done at an indy shop can run into $5K+ range. I'd want to know if any of the above had already been performed. Also, just from my personal experience, run both seats all the way forward, and find the slit in the carpet behind the seats. Run your hand up under there and feel around. If it is wet, the car leaks. If dry, you're good to go.

Identical car to my Roadster. Airbag light is on (mine is too). One of the best color combos IMO. As long as the car checks out and doesn't need too much, I'd say it's a good deal. Not many cars I'd rather have under $20k

I believe I read somewhere that the airbag light can be due to the seat sensor being damaged. I recall something like kneeling on the seat can damage the sensor. Not a problem in the coupes!

I believe you are correct sir. Previous owner mentioned this to me and told me not to let anyone keel on the passenger seat since he had changed the seat sensor.

Code the passenger occupied airbag sensor to "not active". It will tell the computer to ignore the sensor and will make the passenger airbag active at all times. If you need to turn it off for a child in the seat, use your key in the on/off switch on the side of the dash. Once coded to off, you unplug the sensor cable under the seat. You can clear the error code and the light will go off. Obviously this takes coding software, or you can outsource it as I did.
