Potentially my new Z

[boodie1821]

been lurking on here for some time now... finally found the car I want!!

I'm currently in negotiations with the dealer, and the car in getting a PPI at the local BMW dealer.

What do you all think of the car?

As you can see the car is located in South Carolina, and I live in New Jersey... I have not seen the car in person as of yet.

I previously owned a blk on blk E34 535i

Looks sweet to me! I assume you have done the homework and are satisfied that this baby is in great shape.

Make sure that the vendor gets you the four digit Bluetooth code for the car. Its usually printed on a card in the owner's manual, but it frequently gets lost. And, it can be a pain to get the code unless you bring the car to a BMW dealer who can plug in their diagnostic unit and read it for you. Its amazing how many new Z4 owners get the car and have a hassle with this code - me included.

I see car have navigation. Check nav DVD is current. It cost $175 the last time I purchased it.

Looks really nice.. Price is decent, I bet they'd take closer to 27k out the door (or about 26k less tax/title/license).. I paid 26k for my coupe without nav, similar miles and condition... Obviously coupes go for a little more than roadsters (but not a lot)... Glad to see they've got decent tires on there too (Michelin PSS)

Best Color and a Roadster to boot. Nothing like top down motoring in an M. Good Luck and anticipated congrats!

This was a PITA to get. I ended up using my iPhone with the flash turned on to take video of the unit in the trunk. So yeah. Get the code if you get it. Carbon leather is so nice...

I ended up buying a similar one the other day with 43000 miles for 25K. The car is a absolute pleasure to drive. The one your looking at looks pretty clean. I say if you really like it go for it. I don't think you'll regret it

Price seems a bit high to me. Unless these are going up in value. I bought mine like 2 years ago with about 35k miles for around $25k out the door so I would try to bring them down some. Looks very nice though.

[boodie1821]

yes, i agree the price is a bit high as well... my target price is $25 out the door. Currently we are at 26 + tax. I am awaiting the results of the PPI and hoping I can use it as a negotiation tool

The weather is looking pretty fantastic for an extended east coast road trip. Hell, you can even cite it as a negative in the negotiations "well yeah, but I'm going to have arrange to get it up to NJ..."

Wonderful idea. Great negotiation tactic! I like the way you think!
