OMG!!! Nice C2S for $29k - SOLD
 
I couldn't belive my eyes. No affiliation. Pictures look nice. It's a tip though...

Man........a Tip and close to 90 THOUSAND miles......mmm. That's gonna leave a mark :D

ilko 03-29-2007 09:49 PM

Tiptronic, white exterior, beige interior, chrome wheels - all of those are negatives in my book. The mileage isn't that low either.

Wilder 03-29-2007 10:13 PM

You guys are hilarious. Yes it's a tip, yes it's got chrome wheels, yes it's got 80k mi and I'm not a fan of tan interiors either but it looks like it's in decent shape and I've never seen a C2S for $29k. The cheapest I've seen them is high $30s and that's with the same high mileage otherwise $50k+ seems to be the norm. Maybe you guys know something I don't...

Nah.......what do we know :confused:
For that car, its probably a great deal. Just not something I would want in my garage. The color is wrong inside and out (nothing against either for those that own one or the other of that combo :D ) for me, chrome rims.....? and AUTOMATIC.........?

I shouldn't knock it, the car is probably a fine piece, hence the miles......just not my cup of tea :)

Someone's been reading KBB and has reached a disasterously wrong conclusion about what to price this car at.

If I felt any differently, I wouldn't be sharing...I'd be buying!!! :) Having said that, this could be a really nice car for someone and I just can't belive the price!!!

TRINITONY 03-29-2007 10:36 PM

that's a great buy.....

Wouldn't blame you at all :) I'd be doing the same thing. I think Drew M is looking for one, not sure if its what he's looking for though

What happened to the 993 tip idea?

wombat7 03-29-2007 11:30 PM

that sucks Chris! I personally love that color combo!

mborkow 03-29-2007 11:43 PM

i do too...the only thing that would keep me from getting that car (if i was in the market for a 993) is the tip.

A few reasons, she really wanted heated seats and with me gone a lot out of town, a full factory warranty is piece of mind in the event her car would give her trouble.

Finding a cab Tip with heated seats in a color combo she likes was really tough. But naturally, now that she has a car, there will be many of these cars found for sale.

No worries though, the 330i is pretty impressive on many fronts. We found one with the ZHP package, which are pretty rare.

Hmm. So who's got the wrong perspective? Just becuase the insular world of Rennlist 993 fans sees many C2Ss go by at silly prices (which buys what again?), we're shocked at a C2S with some drawbacks going for a more normal 993 price?

As I've said in the past, the "S" fantasy market evaporates with higher mileage. Sad to say, but I fear the whole 993 market is propped up by low mileage icons, and the rest of the 993s just hang on and try to ride the coattails when we can...
