Sounds to me like yet another case of a second hand salesman trying to catch a water fish. Chances are he paid 55k to the seller for it, maybe less.  I think paying 74k for that kind of recorded mileage (wah, not clocked?!) is downright silly.Push him down to 65k and don't pay a sen more than 68k. Tell him that's all you've got. Of course, he'll spin the usual crap about a lot of people looking for this car, the bodykit is cun, etc.  Fact is, there isn't many people looking for the car now, and all the add ons don't mean squat. Not at this vintage. The only thing which could have added any premium to the car is service records. Which it doesn't have. Tread with extreme caution, and don't agree until you've had it inspected thoroughly by a proper independent mech. In fact, you should test drive it with someone who has owned or owns an E36. The euphoria of driving this rare beast would probably overwhelm your judgment at that point in time. Remember, just don't be in a hurry. There's always another around, even this manual one. And car salesmen know for a fact that for a lot of MNC employees, bonus has just been declared.</blockquote>
