Who buys a SHO in Toronto and drives it all the way across this great land to flip it in Vancouver for $3500? Crackpipe. And now for something completely different:

I'm sure you can drive it home with some roadkill-esque feat of daring. But I'd rather get it home and do a full once over to make sure things actually work and are in a safe manor. Who knows how old the rubber brake lines are etc

What would you say a fair range for the 250 be?
I understand the general consensus is that the 350 is a much better car to get, but there aren't that many used ones for sale.

What would you say a fair range for the 250 be?
I understand the general consensus is that the 350 is a much better car to get, but there aren't that many used ones for sale. | The best advice I can give is to be patient. It took me 2 months to find my IS350. Check on Craigslist every day and be active in your emails/communication.
I didn't test drive any 250s, but I would recommend a 350 if your budget allows because the 250 is slow.
Honestly, the 250s and 350s in BC are overpriced, and 250s are priced higher than 350s. I'd probably recommend a price range for a good condition, clean title, well maintained IS250 to be bout 9k-11k, and a IS350 to about 11k-13k.
If you have time, I would recommend maybe checking Kijiji for Alberta (I was considering it myself, because I went on a family trip to Calgary)
The condition of the cars are worse because of dirt/dust, but the prices are lower. Good luck!

Alpina hasn't made an exciting car since 1996
They just became watered down attempts at M cars with pinstripes. The alpinas of old were complete masterpieces.

id say its reasonably priced. i would ask to see the auction sheet, they claim its 4/5 which seems suspicious as 5 is brand new and 4.5 is super low mileage mint used, at best it was a grade 4 which is still really good
beyond that its a cool car, i think the 4.6 is the same or similar to the one used is the x5 4.6is
