I have been collecting cars for years and it is tough to find another one as clean and perfect as this one. I have service records, books, brochures, and (2) keys. All VIN tags are in tact on every panel. You will be hard pressed to find another E36 M3 as clean and immaculate as this one. This car looks and drives as good as it did when it rolled off the assembly line, if not better. I would rate the Interior a 9.5/10 the seats are in excellent condition, the front seat bolsters do not have any wear on them, all functions work and operate on the manual 12-way Vader seats as they should. The Front dash is very clean no cracks, the Rear seats are excellent, and Rear deck-lid has no sun damage. The Exterior of the car is a solid 9.0/10 the front fascia has minor stone marks from driving, the front lip been replaced to protect the undercarriage. Front bumper has not been drilled for license plate, the car was ordered as spoiler delete from factory. The paint is smooth and looks excellent under the sun, always waxed with Zymol. The wheels are curb and rash free, tires are Michelin Pilot Sports and have only 1K miles on them.Under the hood the car features the revolutionary S50 Power Plant (3.0L 240HP). These engines have been noted to be one of the best M engines produced by BMW M GmbH. The E36 M3 in the late 90's was known to be the car out performing every car in its class and is one of the most recognized M cars in the market place today. Whether you are buying this for yourself or your son/daughter, this M3 is a true gem. No aftermarket parts or modifications have been made to this car, as these cars age it is very difficult to find them in stock form. Mechanically this car is excellent and has always been serviced by a highly reputable BMW shop. All service history is included with the car since the first in service date.No expense has been spared to properly store, maintain and address all preventative maintenance on this M3. I do not need to sell this car and would prefer to keep it, but if this M3 goes to the right home I will be happy. This is a true collectable as these cars have now hit the 20 year mark. Age, mileage and condition is the largest contributing factor to this car along with all original keys, window sticker, books, and records, which are included with this sale.

I am no stranger to buying and selling high-performance cars. You are not buying a brand new car, but a well-loved 20 year-old, pre-owned car from a BMWCCA Member. Minor stone marks on front bumper is expected for a car of this age. The abs light comes on if the car has not been driven in a while, very common for older german cars, usually will go away after normal driving. It does not affect the driving or the performance. There are rock chips on the front hood, and bumper, small 1/2" imperfection on roof, near top left corner of windshield, and a very small chip on the front windshield, that has been filled in. This is normal wear for a car of this age. I recently had the entire car clay, buffed, and waxed. Please keep your expectations in check. This car is being sold AS-IS and there is no expressed or implied warranty or guarantee. All inspections must be completed prior to auction ending, at buyer’s expense. That said, I have sold many cars and have a solid reputation on eBay. On Dec-15-15 at 20:17:11 PST, seller added the following information: FAQ: Q: How does the car drive, does it need anything mechanically? A: This M3 is mechanically excellent, it has been serviced. All preventative maintenance has been performed and it drives excellent. If you have ever owned a BMW or an M car, you know how it drives is based on how the car has been maintained and cared for. I can state that this is one of the best E36 M3's, I have ever owned and driven. Q: What is the Color Cosmos Black?A: Cosmos Black is a BMW M Specific color, only offered on 95-99' M3's. It is a black metallic paint with silver flake.On Dec-17-15 at 15:45:46 PST, seller added the following information: Q: Do you have all the service history on the car, how much was spent to maintain this car over the years?A: Yes, I have over $20K in service receipts. I have an entire dropbox file going over everything I can share with any serious clients.On Dec-17-15 at 15:49:07 PST, seller added the following information: On Dec-17-15 at 23:34:19 PST, seller added the following information: Q: What is the market value on this car, and where is it headed.? A: CarGurus puts the instant market value on this car at $16,222. Dealers are pricing this car at $19.9K-$25K. Examples with over 100K+, which have no value for appreciation due to high mileage are asking low teens. I have priced this car very fairly considering what is out in the market place. Last auction the car hit $16K, highest bidder of this car was a dealer who specializes in M cars, but could not come up with the funds to complete the transaction. Since then the reserve amount has been adjusted to make it more affordable for everyone interested. The market on these cars are on the upward trend, as this car has now hit 20 years old, it will only continue to rise, similar to how we have seen the E30 M3 spike in price over the past few years. This is an excellent buy for anyone looking to daily drive, or collect.
