Do you have any pictures of the actual car, and not the papers.

Migit240sx, try to keep it civil within my threads...
To those pointing out the obvious fact about "paper"... more pics of the car will follow shortly. There are actual conscientious and intelligent buyers who also care about a car's history and maintenance and not just the visual appearance of the car. I have included a long list of both. Very few sellers can date back to having the original window sticker, much less the actual sales receipts under both ownership including the signed odometer disclosure, original 4 keys and a long list of maintenance work. I go beyond typing the common and questionable "this was done, this was replaced" bs, i can actually document what i type. As i said, there are conscientious and intelligent people who actually care for this. If you don't fall under that type, please see yourself out. Fool... Lol

Im kinda interested, you make a solid point regarding the VANOS, those things are pricey and failure-prone. The car really needs the bumper replaced as well as the original wheels, i'd actually prefer the E39 528i sport package 3-pc 17s. I may have overlooked it, but whats your asking price?

Also, i dont think it needs the stock wheels, the borbet 's do just fine as the stock are hideous.

Those wheels are horrible stock style 19s or style 5s whichever it came with make the car look much nicer

Brother if you lack knowledge on something its best to keep silent and not look bad (unless of course you like that sort of thing) this car came with neither the bbs style 5 or style 19's. It came with the ugly 16" style 33. So, to save for the argument and opinion in taste in wheels, the borbets are a much better look than the style 33's. Furthermore, the car is for sale, and as in any car purchase, if the wheels dont suit a particular taste, theres a endless array of choices to buy from. Im not selling a car and include 20 sets of different wheels just to satisfy 20 different opinions

There is no rust or body work needed (pulling frame, bondo, etc) and so i'd think that any logical person would see this. Its just a matter of painting new bumper and putting it back on. There are severly rusted s13's for sale in falling apart conditions, here i have a fully documented, pristine running condition car with absolutely no warning lights on the dash and extremely low mileage for the year. Any smart person would clearly see a cracked plastic bumper is absolutely nada.

And regarding my bashing... People are stupid, yes its a fact of life, but i have no tolerance for it, be ignorant elsewhere, just not on my thread. Fact is, i appreciate the tip, but i've sold a large number of cars on this and other forums. I got it under control. Thanks, i appreciate your thoughts
