I would miss not haveing a manual transmission, but I remember this particular car from years ago. I guess I could keep the BMW and buy this, but then I would be garage poor again.

What's with his; "don't low ball me!" paranoia?? Geeeeeeezzz...

I wonder what he considers, "low ball?" I'd offer him a grand to see where his;, "low ball" meter is. LOL!

True...cant hurt I really have not shopped for one of these before, what would be a good buy for this car assuming it checks out okay?

What an idiot. Name your price, don't say you are open to offers. That just opens the floodgates for lowballing. Before I became a dealer all my car ads said "Please no lowballers or tire kickers. Thanks for looking and feel free to call anytime with more questions."

He spends more time talking about it than he does the actual car. $3,000 is a good deal if everything works minus a few little things and its mechanically sound.

Dump the BMW as soon as you can. BMW drivers are becoming a new breed of Volvo drivers. After all a BM is just a German ricer !!
