My $3400 M3

[fronton]

haha, my eyes glazed over the red 1998 M3 and thought it said 1988 M3 since this is an e30 forum. I intently read the content, so jealous of your success, then saw the photos of an e36. Albeit still a good score, not something to feel sorry for buying that cheap. I hope you get it back to glory.

son of a bitch, that's only $400 more than i paid for my 98 328is!

Congrat on your purchase. Only tackle the essential/safety work and leave the rest. Otherwise you will soon realize your $3.2K bargain will turn into a $10k+ money pit. You are most likely into a $4k job to remove dings and repaint the car properly. Silver is not easy to match. Air humidity will affect the orientation of the metallic reflection. So, you want the whole car painted. And everythig must be taken apart for a good job. Which equals to lots of $.

Now, document your resurection.

dude, not cool you, got my hopes up, i click to see pics of a e30 M3 and all i see is a e36,

not cool at all.

hahaha.... I was the same way

good buy, part it out or engine swap. they may be faster, but they aren't as fun as an e30. you will be feel like a wiener driving an e36.

I scored an 98 E36M3 for $2600 yesterday. Funny coincidence.

He mentioned quite a few offers that fell through, a guy showed up the last night and offered him $3300. He accepted and the guy said he had to run home and grab the money, and never came back. I got there at 10am this morning after a 6+ hour ride and took it for 3400. The seller called me 20 minutes after I left to tell me the guy from last night showed up right after I pulled out :p

Where are you from if you don't mind me asking?

Im in Wayzata 10 minutes from the car. I really didnt need another car laying around. Im glad you got it and will make something out of it. lemme know if you need anything for it. I have everything
