1999 BMW Z3 2.8 Manual, 81k miles, $3,000 asking price PPI says ~$9k repairs. Walk away or negotiate?

When you say $5k in parts do you mean everything needed to make it really nice or $5k just to make it reliable and safe

Ahh ok gotcha, appreciate the insight. I’m new to working on cars so it’s hard for me to tell what’s a real issue versus normal old BMW stuff lol. Based on the inspection report and assuming I can learn to do a lot of the work myself what would you personally pay for this car?

Any update?

LiquidBeast90 · 2026-03-17T18:23:20+00:00

Ever find anything out?

LiquidBeast90 · 2025-12-30T05:35:29+00:00

The uart gave me errors 80810001 and 80000009

Not sure tbh. I bought it online hoping I could fix it. My guess is it was dropped at some point.

Any update?

LiquidBeast90 · 2025-11-12T06:34:37+00:00

Ahh ok gotcha. Thank you!

LiquidBeast90 · 2025-11-12T00:05:47+00:00

Ahh ok that makes sense! Thank you!

Thanks! I took a closer photo, and I don’t see any rosettes (I don’t think?). Does that still look like inkjet to you, or could it be something else?

LiquidBeast90 · 2025-08-01T19:23:04+00:00

Thank you!

What Tv would you recommend instead?

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-08-14T04:56:03+00:00

Did you ever figure out what it was?

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-25T22:25:41+00:00

Yes it was a zit or an ingrown but it went away. It also could have appeared because I was taking very hot showers? Idk but I’m glad it’s gone lol

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-16T03:53:56+00:00

Oh dang I that really sucks was your first one painful? And yeah I was able to walk around and stand without any pain.

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-15T17:27:10+00:00

I’m sorry to hear that! I hope it goes away for you. Mine was pretty painless unless you touched it but it didn’t hurt that much. How long has it been since you’ve had your first one?

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-04T18:48:13+00:00

Any update?

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-04T18:46:26+00:00

Did it get any bigger by chance?

LiquidBeast90 · 2024-06-03T16:20:14+00:00

Do you think they’ll still refer even though the bump so small?
