Selling my 1991 M5 - JDM with only 108,000 Km's!

NipponM5 · 04-14-2010, 08:02 PM

I imported this car from Japan 2 years ago. Low kilometres. Never seen winter.
It's left hand drive and jet black.

Lots of options including rare heated rear seats, extended leather and power rear sunshade.

I have all the records on this car.

Serious buyers can PM me and I will provide pics and further info.

SiR · 04-14-2010, 08:31 PM

accidents? rust?

turboteg · 04-14-2010, 09:06 PM

Pics?

NipponM5 · 04-14-2010, 09:08 PM

No accidents..no rust. PM if you're a prospective buyer. I will include everything in the post if I don't get much response from PM. I just don't have time to answer everyones questions that aren't serious. This is a good clean example. Some pics are on page 11 of the pic sticky.

Not seriously looking to buy right?

I saw this car in person and it really is clean and mint. Good car for somebody looking for one of these.

Nippon, with all due respect, and I mean it, this is not the right attitude if you want to sell your car. It would have been nice to post the details with pics so that POTENTIAL buyers become interested and then perhaps buy your car. In addition, I believe you are mistaken the purpose of this forum. We are all enthusiasts here. If one asks a question regarding your car, it's just in his/her nature to ask and for you as (hopefully) as an enthusiast to reply. Furthermore, this section of the forum also acts like an educational section just like all other sections. We not only come on here to buy, but also to assess the market and, yes, admire and comment on great cars.

At any rate, I wish you the best of luck with the sale!

I think it's really smart, and I'll do the same if I need to sell a car in the future. Put pics and price into a real classifieds. Doing it on the forum will ONLY result in windbags discussing how fair your price is, if your car looks good or not... what does he care? If you actually want the car, you'll spend the 15 seconds it takes to PM him for the info.

well put. For someone actually looking for an E34 M5, taking a few minutes to PM the seller, won't be too much of a bother.

mkgino · 04-15-2010, 05:57 PM

well.....I have no interest in buying this car but at bare minimum you could post some pics

**T.Dot_E30** · 04-15-2010, 06:34 PM

Let's all pm him and let him spend more time answering the same questions again n again.

I believe a good ad should answer all the basic questions and provide as much details as possible. So that interested buyers have less questions to ask. You may even have less questions if you did a good job n waste less of your time, because all that is left is for someone to come see it.

Also a good well written ad is a good form of adverisement, ppl will tell others about it if they know someone looking for a car, with no info why bother telling someone about a car you know nothing about.

Anyways goodluck with the sale, there are obvisously different ways to sell a car n you've choosen yours.

I agree with many here that this is the wrong attitude to have when selling. I am looking for a fun semi rare BMW fun car to make me feel better about driving an ugly ass '09 MKV-Jetta. I want a garage queen type car and until now have only considered an e30-M3 or and e36-m3.....

point is I dont even know what an M5 has to offer, and this post COULD catch my attention if there were pics-specs....
