1997 BMW E36 ///M3 Alpine White/BlackRare Example of a clean low mileage 97' E36 ///M3. Only 126K Miles! No Accidents! No Paintwork! 1 Owner! BMWCCA Member. Clean Car-fax! Hard to Find! Alpine White Over Black Nappa Leather! Well-Maintained M3! Inspection Completed. Non Smoker Owned. Exterior Paint is all original. Investment Grade!This is a very clean condition M3. I have been collecting cars for years and it is tough to find clean E36 M3's in the market place today. I have service records, and (2) keys and a remote for keyless entry/alarm. VIN tags on panels. The car has no paintwork. This car looks and drives as great. The front dash is very clean no cracks, and rear deck-lid has no sun damage. Exterior of the car is a solid 8.5/10 the front fascia has not been drilled for a license plate. Minor stone marks are present from driving, a factory OEM front lip has been installed. The paint is smooth and looks excellent under the sun, always hand waxed with Zymol and covered in the garage. Brand new Continental tires w/ only a few miles on them. Under the hood the car features the revolutionary S52 Power Plant (3.2L 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 out performing every car in its class and is one of the most recognized M cars today. This car is all original and stock. No modifications have been made to this car. No expense has been spared to properly store and maintain this M3. I have documentation and service records. I do not need to sell this car and would prefer to keep it, however, if this M3 goes to the right home I will be happy. This is a true collectable as the E36 M3 has now hit the 20 year mark. Age, mileage and condition is the largest contributing factor to this car along with all original keys and records, which are included with this sale.

I am a private collector, not a dealer. I am no stranger to buying and selling high-performance cars. You are not buying a brand new car, but a well-loved 19 year-old, pre-owned car from a BMWCCA Member. I reserve the right to end auction at anytime, I have over 50+ pictures of the car available at request. I drove it this morning and it will be very hard to part with. The ASC light is on, the earlier E36 M3's didn't have traction control and I prefer to drive with it off. The front bumper has a slight indentation from normal daily wear, it has been touched up. Front seats have been reconditioned professionally but still show minor wear from age, rear seats are like new. 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. FAQ: Q: What is the market value on this car, and where is it headed? A: Dealers are pricing this car at $15K-$15.9K. Examples with 75K+ miles, are going for $23K-$25K+. I have priced this car very fairly considering what is out in the market place. The market on these cars are on the upward trend, as this model 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 enjoy an E36 M3. On Mar-13-16 at 09:41:58 PDT, seller added the following information: RESERVE MET! HIGHEST BIDDER WINS THE CAR.
