1985 635CSi For Sale in Ontario, Canada

Post by clipper47 »

Attatches is a link to my ad offering my 1985 635CSi for sale in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. I am getting a few quiries but no one has come to see the car. I think that given the current market I have the car priced about right but perhaps too high at
$15000CND or about $12000USD. It has quite a few miles on it but is and always has been totally rust free. I would like some opinions on perhaps what is a fair price point. I never dreamed that I would have to sell this car but at 77 my health and living circumstances are forcing me to downsize.

I’ve seen your car on Kijiji and I believed it was 46k kms like on the dash. It doesn’t look at all over 100k. I think the biggest issue is that COVID and most of the buyers of this car would be ( at leas province wide) in Toronto area. I’ll share your listing with the local old school bimmer enthusiasts. Maybe someone will bite. Or you can try carsandbids.com or Bringatrailer.com

Thanks, yes I am getting lots of bites but this Covid lockdown for a month is going to stall any interest other than picture collectors unless I get a local buyer. I live in pickup country so not much interest in Euro cars up here? I will amend the ad to explain the speedometer swap from MPH to KPH which is the reason for the confusion. BaT would be a good place to sell except for the border closure. Does the price seem about right? Not many rust free 635CSi's in Ontario.

It’s a great car and I think you negotiate with people and bring price down a few grand you will get it sold in no time. It’s the mileage that unfortunately kills the price.

Yes, the car looks better than most cars do at a lot fewer miles and it runs strong. People get hung up on mileage rather than overall condition it seems. I did price it to allow a bit of negotiating down.
