So a lot of you know me and my car personally.

She is a supercharged 540i, with an ac schnitzer make over. and a buncha other goodies.

Well here is the deal.

I was driving home then all of the sudden shes not moving very much.
15 seconds later i get the dreaded transmission fail safe message.

Now I have come to the conclusion that I am in a point in my life where dumping money into a car is simply a no-no. School is getting more expensive and well so is life in general.

So instead of trying to fix her up, I think its time for her to be in the arms of a man (or woman) who can give her the tender love and care which she needs at the moment which i cannot offer her.

Now what is wrong with her?
To be honest I do not know.
I have done ALOT of research on the matter and i found that this problem can be caused by a million things.... But honestly what ever the REAL problem is at the moment i cannot fix.

So to break things down, You are getting yourself into one of a couple of situations.
Either the car has one of those million electrical problems I have read about online..... OR
the worst case scenario the transmission decided to die.

And if the transmission did die... well hey..... it was time for a three pedal swap any way

So if any one is interested in her please let me know, i much rather hand her off to an enthusiast instead of just some random guy on craiglist.....

so time for some eye/ear candy.

All in all she is an AMAZING car, and it hurts to see her go after all these years together.
But like I said its simply the smarter thing to do.

So if interested please let me know.
I will also be considering trades, and some trades plus cash, or just plus stuff of value haha.

I need to get myself a new car asap. ASAP.... yeah did i mention ASAP.
Some one pick up the most amazing "project" car ever.

email: gusisboosted@hotmail.com

 

Thanks for the bump my man.

So yeah shes still here and i still cant bring myself to spend my college/life money on fixing her.....

some one pick her up and get your self a damn good deal.

Remember i do need a new car asap.
So trades and trades plus cash or stuff... will be considered all to well.

Need a new ride ASAP.

 

To The top cuz i still havent found a DD

 

What is the suspension setup? Seems like you have a lot of mods missing from the list. Just trying to help out.

 

sorry about that yeah honestly man alot of stuff is missing... theres is just SO MUCH done to the car.

as far as suspension goes it got the ac schnitzer spring treatment... nothing too fancy.
but gives it an amazing stance, and the car handles great... plus you dont give up any comfort. pretty nice and rare set up.

ttt.....

need some money for school and a DD yesterday a week ago.

so make offers..

to the offers iv'e recieved thanks and i am considering them.. but some of them just really arent something i can daily drive.... atleast till i can fix up the old daily driver again...

And a lil update on the situation..
alot of people have been scolding me about checking the alternator.. apparently that can be the cause of all of this.

So as soon as i can get some time ill get that checked out.. who knows maybe the trans didnt die after all...

any way as it stands im still trying to get rid of her as-is...

everything is still perfect, get in touch for more details and questions.

thanks

 

bump...

trades welcome.
cash very welcome.

trades plus cash welcome...

stuff welcome....

 

ttt

 

bump,
people keep on offering REALLY awesome cars, but they arent the most
"streetable" things out there.

so im holding on for a bit.

any offers make em, very motivated at this point.

 

New years eve.... everyone have an amazing night.

 

How much cash do u want? Trade for a dd 2000 Saab 95 wagon turbo? Runs purrfect

 

soo FINALLY had a bit of time to take a look at her...
lifted her... and guess what... forward gears seems to be engaging...
So the transmission isnt totally fried... also the transmission fail safe message is gone.

I am starting to think its just something very small, sadly havent had money or time to get the transmission a full run down. Regardless this is good news, and makes for a not TOO expensive project.

also i think i might be able to source some parts at a good price... MIGHT.

any interest please let me know.
I need money or a new car asap.
Shes just sitting there.

 

super clean

 

Got a nice honda, NOW is the time to offer her up.

ffs people.. how hard is it to get a honda, i get a hundred offers from other sites... but no one offers a HONDA.

got a nice one?

looking for an EASY project?, or a car to just part out and make bank on (but please dont shes a work of art, fix the issues, and have her be reborn from the ashes.

you guys know the insane amount of money and care that went into her... now give me a nice honda (over 200 whp and with a/c prefeably ) and we got ourselves a deal.

 

ttt

 

Got the old daily back... so decided she will be sitting in the garage, waiting for prince charming to wake her up.



I do not plan on fixing her for quite some time (atleast a semester), so this is your chance to get her cheap or trade her for something you got.



Now that i got the daily back, in not in too much of a hurry any more...

but nevertheless i'd love to do something with her instead of just having her sit in the garage.



All pms and emails replied by the way...

oh another thing, if you email me include that your from hondatech, ill be nicer
