But generally those priced around 20k had not been maintained meticulously, or perhaps even neglected. Those priced around 35-40k are generally well maintained, and most come with tasteful mods. You will have to verify the condition of the cars before deciding if it is worth the asking price. But generally, buying a 25k e36 and expecting to bring it up to speed will end up costing you more than just buying a well maintained example. The cost to replace worn parts will add up really quickly. Depending on what you want, bodykits, a decent paintjob, and upholstery could already add up to around 8k, at least. So you will wanna factor those in to your decision as well.When I was looking for mine, I went for a maintained example because I did not wanna buy it and then have to end up spending months in and out of the workshop.</blockquote>
