There is a 96 328is for sale near me w/ same specs but its red/blk leath and the person is asking $7800 OBO. I would look around some more. Where are you from?

**bmw4life** · 06-02-2005, 12:08 PM

I personally don't care to much for green but it can't hurt to go look at it. My 96 328is with 70k cost more so seems like a good deal.

**bmw4life** · 06-02-2005, 12:10 PM

Isn't the '99 an e46?

**E36Bimmer** · 06-02-2005, 12:23 PM

99 was a split year. You can find both 99 E36's and E46's. I assume the later production 328's were E46..

I think that's a pretty good price for a 99

**BaLAnCe17** · 06-02-2005, 01:22 PM

i think there would be something wrong w/ it. especially if dealers mark up their prices to make money. look at the maintenece history and stuff first. it could be beat. just my opinion. i paid 13k for mine when i found another one w/ a few more miles for 11k, but there had been a lot of maintenece done and it was driven by a guy, while my black one was driven my an elderly lady!!! but if it seems good hop on it lol.

**528man** · 06-02-2005, 03:53 PM

ok thanks guys. i will get the vin when i call and if someone could look it up that would be great. didnt even think about the car being a e46.

Don't waste your time...it's probably got somthing wrong with it...

I get cars at wholesale, PM me if you need me to find you something....I get the cars straight from the auctions that the dealers pick their cars up at and mark up....I'm getting my 97 M3 4D for 11-12k....but I'm still searching for the right color combo...

right. in 99 only the e46 4dr was made. the 99 coupe was still the e36. it will be the same with the e90. you will still be able to get the e46 coupe and e90 sedan as the same model year.

Right on the money.
The convertible was still e36 in 99, also.

Price seems low. In March I picked up my 1997 328is, Green/Tan, 5 speed, with 91,000 miles. The car had extensive service records from the dealer up to around 80,000 miles. I bought it at an Infinity dealer. They had the pads, rotors, oil, and tires changed. Original advertised price was $8900. My dad talked them down to $7900, but after tax, title, and license it came out to $8800.

Nice E36 Bimmers are scarace here in Memphis, TN. There are thousands on the road, but none for sale!! They had two people behind me ready to buy, but I got there first!

I wouldnt get one with some many miles, and i've seen better deals. Stick with the 528 and mod it out with the extra 8 grand

The milage is fine....but the 99 E36 coupe for that price is real good. The ones I've seen here on sale in NYC area are $10,000 and up/$15,000 for the convertibles with about milage in that 90k ball park!
you can get a 97 or 96 E36 coupe for alot cheaper with less milage say a 70k E36 coupe for 8grand!
