1994 E34 M5 Touring FS, Should I?

613Bimmer · 07-26-2014, 07:40 PM

Here is the posting http://www.autotrader.ca/a/BMW/M/BED...howcpo=ShowCPO

I've really fallen for this car. Should I go for it? Will it gain value in the future (only 891 built)?

PS Dibs on the car : It's mine first!

Twix · 07-26-2014, 08:29 PM

I dunno, seems like a lot for a 94. But it is a wagon, they win.

613Bimmer · 07-26-2014, 08:32 PM

I think that if I offer 20 and reduce the price by a couple to a few $k by haggling, I'll be set.

If we knew it would rise in value in the future, it would have been sold by now

I'd actually say that's probably a pretty good price for he car. I say go for it if you enjoy driving it and it has a clean bill of health

613Bimmer · 07-26-2014, 10:25 PM

Thanks for the input guys! I'll hopefully be in contact with the seller shortly just to see if everything is in check and then move on in the hopeful purchasing process.

Thanks again,

Enthusiast.

26k seems really high...

E39lolz · 07-27-2014, 08:18 AM

Offer $20k but the ad doesn't mention OBO. Still, give it a shot.

it's not high. One of these just sold on US ebay last week with waaaay more miles for $30k.

Rarity is a big factor.....it's not just a regular mass production BMW. Low production makes all the 2nd hand pricing and demand dynamics change.

Chihuahua · 07-27-2014, 01:22 PM

This car is a hand-built, properly M-engined, gem of a car. Nothing like the ///Me-too m cars of today. And it's a touring??!?!

Yea. Go for it.

canukgtp · 07-28-2014, 01:52 PM

wow clean looking, really nice car...and only a couple hours from me...maybe I'll go check it out hahaha kidding, good luck with the deal!

You can say that again!

W/// · 07-29-2014, 11:02 AM

I think price is on the high side, but my goodness that's clean. I've secretly always wanted to do an E34 or E39 Touring project. Also wished they offered the F11 535d here, I'd drive that till the wheels fall off.

canukgtp · 08-01-2014, 10:29 AM

So has the deal been made?

markus037 · 08-03-2014, 10:59 AM

one of my bucket list cars. An E34 M5 touring with low miles and a good color combo is hard to beat. that one also has the 340hp engine as well. Id have it looked over and get all the services up to date and drive the crap out of it.

StealYourFace · 08-06-2014, 02:32 PM

Do you really have to ask?
EAG would have it listed for $49,999

isherdholi · 08-11-2014, 07:28 AM

Wow that looks like a really run down building in the background.

Car looks nice though

e92livin · 08-11-2014, 10:40 AM

It's so mint, it would be hard to find one in better condition.
