They are everywhere (just being wise BTW, I know they are pretty rare)
There were around 500 RWD 6MTs and 50 RWD 6MT M Sports. I can't recall the numbers but in general there were more xDrives (in automatic and 6MT) built compared to RWD.

In any case, you're right there are not many around! Most people are pretty wise to the value when they go to sell whether it be forums, auction sites, craigslist etc.

Always loved that color combo! Good luck with the sale! But what are you replacing it with?

Thanks. I agree- I also love that color combination. That car just looks, sounds, and feels perfect, so it is a difficult decision.

I'm selling because a new M2c is due to arrive at the dealer this week. I need to thin down the fleet in order to justify that purchase.

We'll see. I haven't made a decision yet. I have not really enjoyed any of the Fxx generation cars, but I'm hoping the M2c will feel like an exception. And, obviously, I would be betting that the next gen M2 (g87) will not be a better driver's car than the f87.

Not certain that any of my assumptions are correct.

-Michael

The way these auctions seem to end on BAT is always a crapshoot. I remember last fall, there was a 45k mile, no frills e91 6MT xDrive that ended for 35.5 and everyone was in disbelief...yet, other prime examples since have gone for less.

This one being a six speed, lemans, RWD, single hump, true M sport (non-conversion) with a choice interior color - would expect 30-32, but wouldnt honestly be surprised if it ended at 27-28. Would definitely swap out that wood interior trim for some nice brushed aluminum pieces but thats just me.

Maybe everyone is just really holding back and not showing their cards until the 11th hour...or maybe the BAT peanut gallery hyper-focusing on the undercarriage rust is giving people hesitation? Who knows. Pretty car - probably will not find another like it...good luck to seller. Oh - and that Dinan axel back...yum. Probably about as close to an MPE sound as you're going to find. Really too bad BMW stopped offering the MPE as it gives the car so much character.

BaT is a fickle site I agree. I am guessing either $35 or $28, like you say. I do think the focus on the rusted components could hurt. Last I looked, surface rust on a swaybar did not make the car drive differently. Rust on the body, that would be different.

That car is a looker. Makes me with I had purchased a 2011, LeMans blue, RWD, mSport, 6 speed, MPE, bilsteins, dk grey interior, from Cars and Bids a few months back that went for $20,500. Not in as nice shape as this current one, but did have only 70K and had lived in CA and GA. I was about 2 hours from the car. Should've, would've, could've - oh well, too late now.

People paying top dollar for an E91 ($20k+) are either looking for a specific option set, color combination, or collector a grade low mileage example.

There are some results that really had me shaking my head but to each their own. The LeMans car is the PERFECT spec in my eyes. I wish I held out for a more exciting color combination than black on black but there are only a handful of cars with my ideal spec: RWD 6MT M Sport single hump xenon.

The LeMans car is worth paying a premium for if you want that spec and color combo. The rust to me is a non-issue as it appears to be limited to parts the bolt up and has not found its way into the body itself. Around the 75k-100k mark is when these cars really start to need a suspension refresh. Throwing on 335i brakes and new hardware all around as well as a new diff whether it be an LSD or shorter ratio 3.73 from an automatic makes sense as well. My point is that everything outside of the rusty calipers and subframe is due for replacement anyways. For anyone DIY inclined, it's not an awful process to refresh all of that (says the guy with a 3.73 sitting in his garage floor!). As far as the paint work goes, it's a 10 year old car and the vast majority of cars of this vintage and mileage have had some paintwork at this point.

I think around the $30-35k mark seems like the right price for this car. Had it been rust free and all original paint, $40k would be a slam dunk.

Don't worry, I'm taking good care of it

It feels like this one should go for high 20s but no one knows until the timer stops.

Look under Bumper Assembly and Bumper Cover. It looks like Bumper Assembly is more commonly used. Also go through the different variations. I think you could probably add PDC and headlight washer holes if you wanted...

I wouldn't just search for ones with pdc and such because oftentimes junkyard workers have no idea what the hell they have. Sometimes I've found cars with say an engine part I want like airbox and the car that had it didn't show up under airbox. Car-parts search engine isn't the best
