Mmmm... That's a good one!!! hahaha


I'm also not sure if 325i convertible is keyless entry or "start" button...
I just went there, tell dealer to drive me one round, open hood make sure no funny sound, open roof and close back to make sure aircon is cold... What else to look out for? The remote have button to open roof-top?

ac323@ And yes, roofless ROCKS~! Finally able to get one... By the way, this car 325i belongs to E90 series?

Re: Guides in Buying a 325i Convertible?

if it is a PML car am sure you can call to check....no harm trying.....
almost 4 years at 30,000km, probably previous owner got a few cars.......is possible..
( how's the interior, leather still looking good or looks 8 years old and more )

cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeers

Ya... I was told by dealers that the car have 2 owners, but still the same person driving. Previously was owned by company and company wanna go IPO so transfer to owner name. Dealer also told me owner have 5 cars which explains the mileage. But again... it was told by a dealer... Last time, I kanna quite jialat because of an asshole dealer, so now don't believe anything from dealer.

Ok. Looks like i have to call PML & check it out...

I also wanna do a color change respray as black car doesn't suit me... Any good workmanship respray shops?
I may lower the color of the existing window Tinting... Any good lobang to intro?

Wow... Thanks bro... You solve a lot of my Q & A... Hahaha...

I've not seen the rest, but when I see this 325i E93, I thought that I am driving a new car... Inside is so clean and doesn't feel like a 3 year old car... Cleaner than my current ride... some more 30k mileage & internal full black. I have submitted my ideal price with a "want come dun want fxxk off" attitude(If you got the 1/2 feeling of buying a car, you get a better deal) and never expect they accept the deal. I think important is LIKE the feel of the car...

Also, If i wanna make 2 holes below the side mirror like the M series where can i get it done before the respray?

Yep... Everything start from "dare to dream" or wanna-be or wanna-have... If a person dun even dare to dream, then confirm sure no chance of driving a BMW... when I was 20 years old I wanna drive a BMW before 30 and I got my 1st, but old BMW on 29 years old. Didn't thought of getting a transformer until I got my 1st BMW and there it is.. 2 years of hard work and persistent...

But seriously, I'm not sure if I wanna do a air-intake and exhaust for this car... I just want smooth and power to drive.

About the 2 holes called quad? Who is pro to do those below side mirror holes and boot holes?
If it is sensitive, any bro can PM me... I wanna do the 2-4" holes" before a full change of color spray... I hope I can find this color

Thanks...

Hi Legendo,

You should send the car to a BMW Specialist workshop to do an inspection on hard wares and STA on the car chassis, since you will be driving it till the end of it's life.

Also, double check on mileage and request for previous servicings log from PML.


Thereafter, enjoy this very lifestyle ride! 8)

Thanks bro,
I've set a date to my own workshop whom serviced my old E36 318IS before... I'm sure he can do a good job as other workshops which serviced my old car let me pay unnecessary until he make everything right. And I only see BMW or Benz parking around his workshops every-time I go for servicing... As for PML, I'm not sure how to get the records... I think i will just call them 1st on Monday morning...

You should probably head down talk to them to retrieve the previous servicings log.

Keep us updated!
