That's a damn good offer. They'd be foolish not to take it.

Two years ago I almost bought a '92 500E from a seller in Malibu. He had a stack of receipts that showed a perfect service history, including a new throttle actuator, a/c evaporator, and engine wiring harness. The car had about 160,000 miles on it, and he wanted about $9,000 for it IIRC.

I balked, waited a couple of weeks, changed my mind, but he had sold it to a guy in Kansas City.

I still regret it.
