Cool Help in Buying decision

I live in Minneapolis and have been looking for a clean 328 or 323 for a couple weeks. I have 3 leading candidates: 1) 1996 White 328 w/ traction control, and most options, 84,000 miles, private owner asking $11,000 2) 1997 328 Black on tan w/ Dinan tweaks and short shifter, 65,000 miles $16,000 from a dealer 3) 1996 328 red w/ black leather auto (needs 4 new tires), 71,000 miles, dealer lists at $12,500.

After doing "Autocheck" they all are clean cars.

Of the 3 right now my top choice is the White 328. It is higher miles than what I wanted to get into. But it seems so cheap to me, that if I drive it for only a couple of years, I'd have my money out of it.

Feedback?

Thanks in advance.

Initially the first one seemed the most appealing. Definitely not number 2, too expensive. See if you can get the third guy to throw in new tyres, if he refuses bring him down as much as you can, at least $500 off that asking price and it may be worth it. $11,750 and i'd take it.. otherwise stick with the first one, if it's in good shape..


good luck, and let us know which one you choose
