Top ten most re-hashed 348 topics: my picks

1. My check engine light is on.
2. How often do you need to do the 30K service?
3. Can you buy a decent 348 for $40K?
4. I'm selling my 348 - is $60K a fair price?
5. Has the 348 bottomed out in depreciation?
6. Is the 348 really worth less than a 328?
7. What's up with all of these sticky parts?
8. How much is the annual maintenance on a 348?
9. I'm in the market for a 348.
10.Will _______ (fill in blank) wheels fit my 348?


Here are my one sentence answers:

1. It's probably nothing.
2. Every 30K stupid! (j/k)
3. Yes - there are motivated sellers aplenty out there.
4. No - You're living in a dream world.
5. No - there are very few cars that quit depreciating.
6. No - all things being equal, a 348 brings more than a 328.
7. Lacquer thinner, EZ Off, and Goof off will all do the trick nicely.
8. $2-3K is a conservative budget, though some years it could be $500, others $10K.
9. Get after it.
10. Probably so - it seems that almost every wheel this side of 1980 has been successfully installed on a 348.

If my wheels are mounted on the wrong sides, will any smart-asses give me a bad time?

Why won't my glove box lid stay open?

Someone told me that a new windshield is $3500, but that couldn't be right, could it?

 

My car has problems starting when hot.

Ive searched the archives and can not find any thing relating to the above

 

Try the new Hill Engineering 348 hot start button milled from the highest quality aluminum and made exactly to fit the 348!

I bought the Hill Engineering steering wheel adapter directly from London, and now my steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car. Will this affect resale?

 

Just flip the image in Photoshop for the sale pictures, and don't allow anyone to see the car in person. Tell them it is being held at a transfer depot and you wil sell it to them shipping included for $12k. Take the first three people's money and deliver the car to the fourth 'buyer'. This will net you $48k and I will get the 348 for the wife for only $12k. Let me know when the third buyer slot has been filled.
