MONTREAL?!?!

I'd first check to see if its been into an accident, those car dealers over there are scammers! With the rust, there shouldn't be any, doesn't BMW warrenty there cars against rust for 7 years??

at 186000km its been driven around 30,000 km a year, a bit more than normal, i'd say in the LOW TEENS (around 14-15 tops)
Power moonroof, ac, leather (make sure its real leather, most 323's came with leatherette) are all pretty standard options, they ALL COME WITH THIS pretty much!

I would say you should offer no more than 14,500 at the most the question is can you get this car for wholesale or retail ?? if you can pay wholesale then you can get it for a lot less than 14,500. If your looking for a car my advice is first whats your buget and second make a list of what you are looking for as in color and options you would want to have on the car and this way you can narrow down your list of the cars your looking at and also take the time to find a car that you really like and would want to own soldomatic has some good advice for you also.

^ That's the right price. Those are usually beat up cars ,I would not touch them.With repair bills
and cost of the car you can get better bimmer.

Car is $9500.00 wholesale car all day long. Check ADESA.ca website under market guides and that should indicate. Would not pay a dime over that.

BMW will only warranty the rust depending on the In Service date, it is 6 years from date of service, but it is next to impossible to claim unless you bought the vehicle from a BMW dealer.
