Dear all,

I'm finally parting ways with my beloved e91 RWD 6MT (Arctic Metallic over Dakota Beige) that took me so long to find!

E61 on the BMWCCA Classifieds https://www.bmwcca.org/ads/297416

I looked over it and took it for a drive, in really great shape inside and out. Owner took great care of it and rarely drove it in wintertime. Looked to be some seepage around the power steering reservoir and lower undertray - likely one of the many known N52 gaskets. Ultimately too old to take up daily driver duties for our family

The auction for this E91 ended today with the final bid coming in at $25,500. It was below the reserve that the seller set. I have a feeling that the buyer and seller will be able to work something out.

If I had a $1 for every time a car is listed in the rust belt with no undercarriage photos... Could be enticing, could be a mess.

Not a manual and not mine.

Here is another newly listed E91:

This one check almost all my boxes except it does not have the sport seats. I really like the look and feel of the sports seats but have not personally sat in the non-sport seats. Can anyone who has experience with both share their thoughts?

Also, this car is originally from Canada, what differences are there between the American and Canadian versions?

My E91 has the standard seats and they're good and functional for an X-drive daily driver. My E82 came with standard seats as well and, again, they weren't bad but I wanted something better suited to the more spirited driving planned for the E82. So I swapped in sport seats and they are fantastic! I wouldn't let the seats be the only thing keeping me from buying a car that otherwise meets my wants/needs as swapping seats is fairly easy to do.

I agree that swapping seats is easy!
Previous owner on that e91 has already added the sport steering wheel.
It also has black seats and those are the easiest to find in sport/heat.

Seems expensive in light of a couple auction cars going for less money with less miles. One of them being M sport.

Love the sport seats, I appreciate them the most in my RWD with sports suspension/package. I have the standard seats in my X-Drive model, however since there's no sport suspension option on X-drive, the suspension is softer and I found the standard steering wheel and seats are fine.

Interesting how they list the car as an M-sport when it clearly is not. It's a sport. the ZMP mentions black headliner. It's quite obvious that it does not have that.

Here is a new BaT auction for what looks like a very clean automatic trans 2008 328xi with 75,000 miles:

Does seem like quite a bit. Especially with the market like it is.

1 of the 48 Unicorns sent to the US, Le Mans Blue Metallic over Saddle Brown, 100K miles. If not for the salvage title, then it'd be $30K, even in today's market.

If the damage wasn't bad and it's verifiably sound, then it's a super bargain for someone looking for an E91 to own and enjoy. As an investment or possible future sell, then no. Pass.

It was a passenger front end collision. The hood, fender, bumper, radiator support, headlight, and the front aluminum subframe were all replaced. That was about 2 years ago and he’s been driving it since.

I’m considering it but idk… I already have a unicorn e91 lol it’s just not an LCI/m sport… which I’d really like to have.
