Vehicle Detail
1988 BMW M3 I am the 3rd owner of this e30 M3. The car sits at 146,878 miles. Box A title, original miles. It is currently stored inside and not being driven, so the miles will not go up by the end of the auction. Clean title in my name. No Liens, Privately owned and registered in Arizona. The car is located in Mesa Arizona, and is the buyers responsibility to have the car picked up, or shipped at buyers expense. I bought the car because, like other car guys, owning an e30 M3 is a dream. I sold my car that I owned at that time to make it happen. To be honest, I miss my old car, and it is currently available for me to purchase again, and I find more joy in driving my old car, so I am selling the e30 M3 to repurchase my old car. That is the only reason. I purchased the car from the 2nd owner in April of 2015, with 146,362 miles on the car. I have put barely over 500 miles on it, during the 10 months or so, that I've owned it. It is very capable of being a daily driver, but I have used it just to take out on the weekends, or occasionally I'll drive it to work. The only changes I have done to the car in my ownership are the BBS RS212 wheels. I do not have the OEM wheels. They were never offered to me when I purchased the car. The BBS wheels are 5x120, 17x8.5 et13, 3 piece wheels. They are real BBS wheels. Perfect fit for the car. I have 2 sets of center caps. The ones pictured on the car are flush to the wheel, and I have raised BBS center caps. I paid $3k alone for the wheels, plus tires. Tires have less than 500 miles on them. 215/40/17 Nankang Noble Sports. All windows work. AC works. Heat works. Original S14 motor with VIN tag. The car is originally Hennarot in color. The car has been resprayed back in 1998 by the previous owner. The engine bay is the OEM Henna color, and that is the only visible place where you see the OEM paint. The color on the car now is basically Henna, but there is some flake in it and clear. It is a very amazing and impressive color. In the sun you see some Orange color and Red. Very hard to explain the paint and capture the color in pictures. The paint in person impresses every time I take it out. The job was done by the previous owner, who owns a professional, Custom paint shop. He painted it in '98 when he purchased the car, to showcase his paint skill to his customers. The car shows no signs of accidents or body work. The car is in great shape all around. I have a few records that came with the car, dating back to the first few years of ownership. The car comes with a clean Carfax report showing no accident history. Clean title in hand. No bank lien. 2 keys. I am willing to talk to anyone who is interested in the car, via phone or email. I have the car listed on a number of other sites, so I reserve the right to end my listing at any moment incase I find a buyer. Feel free to send me your email address, and I will send you a current Carfax report. I have the price at $40k as it sits with the wheels pictured. I will consider selling the car for $37k without the BBS RS wheels because I know I can sell those anytime. According to Hagerty Values, the car is well worth the $40k (even with a repaint). We all know the values on these cars is out the roof, and the most appreciating car for value in the last 12 months. They won't be getting any cheaper, any time soon.
